Are you thinking about buying a used car in Utah? If so, there are many things you need to think about before you ever set foot on a used car lot. You need to plan your purchase out. While it isn’t easy to specify a make and model of used car that you will be buying far in advance, you should have a short list and a general idea of what make, model and years of car you are looking for, and what they may cost, before you ever set foot on a dealer’s lot.
Never, ever buy a car just because you think you’re getting a good deal. If it’s not the car you want, and especially if it costs more than you can afford, even if it is inexpensive relative to the typical price of the car, it still represents a massive investment on your part, and if you pay more than you can afford, you will possibly ruin your life. Whether you are buying from a used car dealer or a private individual, you should ask the same questions and obtain the same information before committing to the purchase of a used car in Utah.
If you find a used car in Utah you are interested in through a private seller, you should first ask, before any other question, why they are selling their car. After all, if they really like the car why would they want to sell it in the first place? Typically, they may be purchased a newer car but in a way that they could not trade in their old one, and they may see no point in keeping an additional car around that they hardly ever use. Maybe they just can’t afford to keep it anymore. Whatever they tell you, watch for hesitation. Read their reactions. Be like a poker player and look for a ‘tell’ that will give away that they are making up their answer just for your benefit.
The first and most fundamental step in evaluating a used car is to check the mileage that has been put on it. Look into the maintenance records and evaluate them carefully. Ask about he condition of the interior, the paint, and the trim before you ever actually see the car. If their answers appear misleading when you actually see the car, you can bet that any information they give you is equally unreliable. Also find out if all the instruments and gauges work correctly. The seller should be able to provide these answers, and if you inspect the vehicle you should be able to confirm their answers. The condition of these various things is a very big factor in negotiating the selling price of the automobile. If the seller has exaggerated about the condition of the car, you are better off just giving it a miss.
A very big and important question to ask the seller is whether the car has ever been in an accident. You should get an auto history report. If you get the auto’s VIN number, you can go online and get the auto’s history for free. If you are buying a used car in Utah, try to avoid buying a car that has ever been in an accident, as there tends to be a significant risk that there is more damage to the car than the eye can see, and not all of it may be satisfactorily repaired.
You can search online or in your local paper to get an idea of what other sellers are asking for the car. You can even check on sites like eBay. If you have independent comparators, you are in a much better negotiating position when negotiating the price of a used car in Utah. If a seller thinks they have a one of a kind item that you need, they naturally will be less flexible in price than if they think it is a buyer’s market. If they think it is a buyer’s market they will be desperate to sell and more likely to be willing to negotiate the price. If there is more than one suitable car available that you could buy, and any of these cars can beat the price you are being offered at that moment, then it is in effect, for you, a buyer’s market.
When you are fairly certain you have found a car you’re interested in, run a title search. This will be an essential thing to make sure you’re not being scammed or buying stolen goods. You don’t want to find out later, after you’ve already purchased the car, that you can’t get the title to it and thus cannot really actually own the car. That would be a worst case scenario, and anyone who would sell you a car under those circumstances wo9uld already be gone with your money by the time you found out about it.
Another useful and important step in buying a used car in Utah is to have a qualified, reliable mechanic inspect the car. Have the mechanic go over the car with a fine tooth comb and tell you in detail their impressions of the condition of the car, how they think the car was driven, how much wear and tear there is on various systems of the car, and how reliable you can anticipate the car to be. Mechanics work on cars all day every workday, and can often tell when a car is a mess even though it has never been in an accident. You will have to pay for this service, but it will prove to be well worth it at the end of the day.
If you take the necessary precautions, ask all the necessary questions, obtain documentation of the car’s history and chain of title, you should be able to buy a used car in Utah with confidence (another reason to buy a used car from Low Book Sales). You don’t have to suffer the cliché of getting ripped off by someone selling a used car. Not all used car sellers are dishonest, but why take a chance that you will get one of the bad ones? Do your homework and be careful when buying a used car in Utah.

If I were to be running 100% veggie in a diesel like your Mercedes, I would need to thin it out a bit for winter but not in the summer right? since the tank is already warm.
Winter use 75% diesel (or more) and the rest would be the grease and kero mix. I would do 50% WVO and 50% Kero. Unless you are preheating the fuel before starting. Only issue is hard starts once running it dont matter concentration. Spring 50% WVO, 50% Kero, no diesel. Summer 25% kero, 75% WVO, no diesel. Always use octane boost. I add a lil gasoline to all mixes (u research quantity) make sure it mixes in good. Noticed a increase in power small amount of gas. Good luck!

At both of these sites you can put in your exact specifications on the year, milage, and price range you want, as well as other things too.
I don't think I can make those websites clickable links, but you can type them in your browser.
Because "curbstoners" as they are called want to avoid paying taxes; avoid paying for a license (required if you sell over a certain number a year); avoid laws such as inspecting cars to make sure they are roadworthy; etc.
Most of the unbelievable deals on Craigslist are not from curbstoners but from con-artists. Most of these cars do not exist at all. They just convince unsuspecting buyers to send them cash through Western Union and of course they dissapear.
hey check my dealer out . http://www.scottautogroup.com my name is Jimmy Roman im in the la county. good luck
you cannot sell a car without a clear title., no matter who has good credit or not. If you did anyway, and he doesn't pay for it, the dealer will still demand from you the money, owed on the car.If he becomes deliquient and you don't pay up. this will destroy your name and credit and possible go to jail.
Hey I use veg oil in my 1995 Dodge. I have a friend who runs a trucking company and has offered his wast motor oil. I have however been reluctant to use it. Can you run 100% motor oil using the same system?
C220, man, keep it up!
I wouldn’t use this blend on a 95. I would go ahead and build yourself a conversion kit for it. I’m not going to use this blend for my 83 for much longer either. It’s temporary in my eyes (year or two) until you can afford the conversion.
Good question. But I don’t know that answer for sure. I heard a story about a local guy running 100% motor oil in his big fancy tow truck. I don’t know if it is true or not. But I have seen several forums where guys have run 50% for years with no issues, in a Dodge also. Let me know how it goes.
To buy a used car, make sure its below 60,000 miles if its an American car such as GM, Ford, or chrysler or 80,000 miles or less if its a Honda, toyota, acura, infiniti etc..
make sure it has no problems with engine and transmission
make sure engine light is not on
make sure the tires are not worn out, otherwise ask for a lesser price as tires can cost up to 700 dollars or more
make sure you get a carfax report but do not fully depend on the report.
ask if it has been in an accident
ask how many owners for the car so far, less is better
ask for all of the maintenance receipts that they have done so far for the car so you can keep them as a reference of what has been done for the car.
its better to buy a car that is less than 8 years old unless you will be using it lightly
Thanks
i hope that you don’t put used motor oil in your tank dude,’cause of the pollution it would do
Ok, I don't know exactly, but I would think an older model of the Dodge Caravan would be great for you. You can try googling all this, and look up another car, but this is good or close to it on gas (I think it is 20-25MPG), and it is really spacious. Also, they are quite cheap, even the new models. So you might want to look into this vehicle, but one problem I can think of is the engine. I really don't know the engine specs, and it might have some trouble. This may be but, it is a very popular vehicle, so it probably isn't that bad. I hope this helps.
Have an idea what the car is worth first so you know if the selling price is in the ballpark. Don't fall in love with that particular car; there are thousands and thousands of used cars out there. Get a carfax report if you can and be prepared to walk away immediately if you can't come to an agreement or if the seller balks about having your mechanic check it out.
Pretty much anything japanese, like others are saying the Honda Civic is pretty good – I knew someone who had one and they got it 10 years old and carried on using it for another 10 years. In the end they drove it to a scrap yard, it drove fine but it was begining to rust in places.
i have looking to do this for my 85 MB turbo diesel
this is great
Excellent vid J! I have 2 MB diesels, an 83 Turbo Diesel and a 95 E300 Diesel. Can the 95 use this wvo set-up? thanks.
Honestly, anything american will always be cheaper… short and long run, maintenance, price, etc. If it has to be foriegn, choose toyota corrolla. $3700 could buy a ford taurus, crown victoria, grand marquis.
