The uncertainty in the world today can present individuals and families with questions about how to manage finances. Some payments may be unavoidable as they are part of everyday life, but you can also get creative with things like car payments. The COVID-19 pandemic has made many people cautious about how they spend their money, especially since there is so much uncertainty as to whether it will come back for a second wave or not. DeBoer’s Auto wants to bring you a little peace of mind by offering simple tips for avoiding car payments in the long-term.

Car Payments Aren’t Ideal In Uncertain Times

Buying a new vehicle during these times isn’t ideal for most people. Taking on new car payments commits you to long-term payments you don’t know if you can afford right now. An alternative to buying a new car is tuning up your existing car, no matter how old or banged up it is. Maintenance costs can be expensive, but they are much less expensive than a monthly car payment.

 

How Car Maintenance Keeps Money In Your Pockets

 

We fix your car so you don't need a new one.Regular vehicle maintenance can help owners stay in their current vehicle for as long as they reasonably want to. Without keeping a maintenance schedule, you’re putting your vehicle at risk of potentially having to face costly repairs later on. Research studies show that for every $1,000 you spend on preventive maintenance, you could be saving up to $8,000 on major repair work. So it’s easy to see how these expensive repairs over time could add up to the cost of buying a brand new vehicle. The return on your money spent on maintenance may not be visible, but it does keep more money in your pockets over the long-term.
