The Benefits of Buying a Single-Owner Vehicle

Some of the biggest reservations and hesitations held by potential pre-owned car, truck, and SUV buyers are the complete unknowns when it comes to how the previous owner, or owners, handled the vehicle while in their possession. You want to make sure that you’re not just buying someone else’s problem, and buy with confidence knowing that your new-to-you vehicle won’t leave you stranded. 

One of the best ways to ensure that is to buy a single-owner vehicle. The benefits of a one-owner vehicle are numerous, but among the most important include being more likely to have complete maintenance records, having the full story from the previous owner, and the simple fact that fewer people have driven the vehicle. 

Complete Maintenance Records

One of the biggest advantages of buying a single-owner pre-owned vehicle is that you are more likely to have all of the previous owner’s maintenance records. With multiple owners, previous maintenance records may have been lost between transactions. Additionally, different people take different approaches to vehicle maintenance. So, where one owner may have been diligent in keeping up the required maintenance, other previous owners may have mismanaged or totally neglected suggested maintenance. 

Seeing the Full Scope of Previous Ownership

When vehicle issues arise, some owners will simply trade in the vehicle for something else in an effort to avoid properly maintaining the vehicle. If a previous owner is less than honest about the potential issues surrounding the vehicle, the issues could worsen due to a lack of knowledge, and lead to major repairs down the road. 

Fewer Owners, Fewer Drivers 

One of the largest benefits of buying a single-owner vehicle is the obvious fact that with fewer owners comes fewer drivers. This means that more unknowns will be taken out of the equation when it comes to questions surrounding how the vehicle was cared for by multiple previous owners.
