Buying a vehicle is one of the most important decisions you can make. And choosing the right dealership goes a long way to achieving quality results. At Sweeny Cars, we’ve proudly served the Hermitage, Pennsylvania, region for decades, providing world-class sales and service. So, whether you need an efficient sedan for your Ohio-Pennsylvania commute, a family-friendly SUV, or a capable pickup for towing and hauling, we’ve got the inventory to find the perfect vehicle to fit any need or budget.
Many drivers choose to purchase a used vehicle for various reasons. First, you avoid absorbing the depreciation expense new cars experience. New vehicles often depreciate up to 30% in the first year alone and as much as 15% yearly for the next few years. Not only will a used car 3-5 years old save you thousands of dollars versus a brand-new model, but it will also hold its value better over the next 3-5 years.
You take on less risk when you buy a used vehicle versus a new model. However, in most cases, new car buyers find themselves upside-down on their loans, which occurs when you owe more than the vehicle’s actual value. While this doesn’t cause financial harm if you keep the car for more than five years, you expose yourself to financial risk during the first few years.
If you have an accident and the insurance company deems your car a total loss, you may be responsible for a portion of the loan. For instance, if you owe $20,000 on your loan and your car is worth $15,000, you’ll have to pay the lender the $5,000 difference. Moreover, you’ll need a new vehicle and won’t have the benefit of having one to trade in, further complicating your situation. Used car loans rarely result in an upside-down position.
As a member of the #1 Cochran family of dealerships, we lead the region in new and used car sales. As a result, we have more inventory available than other smaller dealerships. In addition, we have used vehicles from nearly every brand, so chances are, we have your dream vehicle just waiting for you to discover it.
We always have a vast selection of American-made Chevy, Dodge, GMC, Ford, and Buick vehicles on our lot. You’ll find the sporty Camaro and Corvette from Chevrolet and the robust Charger and Challenger from Dodge, loaded with style and performance features at competitive prices. In addition, our inventory includes many late-model sedans from Toyota, Nissan, Subaru, Kia, and Hyundai, with low miles and the latest equipment.
If you’re searching for an SUV, we have the compact, efficient Trax, the capable Blazer, the family-friendly Traverse, and the full-size Tahoe and Suburban available. Of course, we also have plenty of GMC and Buick SUVs, such as the compact Terrain and Encore, the midsize Envision, and the full-size Acadia.
We often have the popular SUVs from Nissan, including the Murano and Rogue, alongside various Subaru, Kia, Honda, and Toyota models. And you can find multiple minivans from Honda and Toyota with features the whole family will love.
At #1 Cochran, we have changed how we deal with shoppers. We don’t participate in high-pressure sales tactics or bait-and-switch gimmicks because we know they don’t work with our savvy customers. Instead, we train our people as vehicle consultants.
When you meet with a vehicle consultant, they’ll ask you basic questions to understand your needs, wants, and budget. Once they know your parameters, they show you only those cars that match your criteria. This approach saves you time, not looking at vehicles with features you don’t want. And it saves you money, not paying for unnecessary options. Your consultant quickly finds your ideal car that fits your needs and budget.
Once we’ve located your dream vehicle, we can finalize the deal. Our finance managers have decades of experience working with buyers in all credit categories. We’ve also cultivated local and national relationships in the lending industry to offer the widest selection of loans.
Our goal is to provide you with competing loan offers and let you decide which deal makes sense for you. It could be a better interest rate or a longer term with a lower monthly payment. Maybe you want something with little or no money down. We can match you up with a lender for whatever deal you like.
And our team has streamlined the loan process. You can quickly get pre-approved for a loan using our online application. You’ll know your loan amount, monthly payment, interest rate, and terms in minutes. We also recommend you use our online valuation tool to get a value for your trade-in. We’re so confident you’ll love the offer; we promise to buy your car, whether or not you purchase another vehicle from us. With this information, you can shop confidently, knowing what you can afford.
We stand behind every used car we sell with our world-class service center. We provide our technicians with state-of-the-art tools and equipment to diagnose and fix any issues you might have quickly. In addition, we offer our mechanics continuous factory training to remain updated on the latest parts and repair practices. As a result, we can identify the problem and fix it fast the first time.
And we only use original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts for all our services and repairs. We use OEM parts because we know they fit right and work the way the manufacturer intended. Proper fit and finish result in maximum efficiency and prolongs the life of your car, truck, or SUV.
If you’re ready to upgrade your Hermitage commute with a reliable used vehicle, we can help. We suggest your start by shopping our virtual inventory. Then, once you find a car you want a closer look at, you can visit our dealership. One of our knowledgeable staff members will answer your questions and let you take your preferred vehicle for a test drive.
