I. Introduction
A. Attention Material: What comes to mind when you think about purchasing a new used car? We get scared and anxious the second the idea has come about, purchasing the right car is incredibly difficult. Especially if you don’t have mechanical knowledge to be able to look for some important things.
B. Tie to the audience: I’m sure that all of us at some point have either looked at purchasing a car, purchased a car, or driven a car. Unfortunately, thousands of people a year purchase what is known as lemons, a car that is unsatisfactory for the buyer due to the seller withholding information. If you were to go to a car lot, a used vehicle can range anywhere from $500 to $30,000 depending on the vehicle. The great part about knowing what to look for in a used vehicle is, not only knowing that you are getting a good and safe deal, but also you will gain some pretty simple and necessary mechanical knowledge that will only help you in the future. What could be better than knowing that you got a great deal on a vehicle?

Since I'm choosing to sell private I've had to sit down and write up a sales pitch for my old car, and that's really made me step back and evaluate the trials and tribulations I went through in this vehicle. One often reflects on the memories built up at a house or apartment, but when you think about the
Free, new, 50% off- advertising, an immensely paramount aspect in today’s society, has the ability to promote or demote a newly developed product. With such a vast array of public notices, it’s crucial that they appeal to people psychologically, using rhetorical devices. During an expedition for the most complex, eye-catching ad, I was fortunate enough to stumble upon the 2010 Dodge Challenger. Astounded by the multiplex of this advertisement, my inner curiosity was enkindled. In this persuasive notice, the appeals to ethos, pathos, and logos are strategically used to persuade the target audience that the 2010 Dodge Challenger is the car for them.

Our issue is that we need a new vehicle because ours was wrecked and the rental car we were given to use after the wreck by the insurance company is about to expire, leaving us no mode of transportation. We are looking into buying a used vehicle from an advertisement in the local paper. We weren’t sure if the vehicle was still available so we have called the owner and inquired. We do not know who we are buying the car from but we are interested in purchasing the Volkswagen Jetta because of the advertisement in our local newspaper. Just from reading the car ad; we deem that the car fits all our needs and we need to get in touch with the owner fast in order to make sure they don’t sell it to someone else.
Before we pulled into the dealerships parking lot, we set Mike’s parameters out. Mike was going to be interested in a brand new 2013 Ford F-150 pickup truck, while trading in his 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and having upwards of $10,000 cash to put down as a down payment. Sure those numbers sound steep for a college student, but when in the market for a truck priced at over $40,000 MSRP, we had to make it appear somewhat reasonable for the lurking salesman.
It was a cold December night shortly after dusk, a likely setting for an event that would prove to be life altering. As fate would have it, this would be the night that I lost the material possession that truly meant the most to me. I would lose the one thing that gave me much pride and joy and excitement. I often think back and liken us to a newlywed couple, for we had only been together for 18 months and were still very much honeymooning. It was a night, a moment, that even now scoffs and mocks me as I travel thither and yonder with her replacement. But she can never be truly replaced and to call my current fix a replacement seems like a sort of blasphemy.
With the purpose of obtaining usable information that, I can show the prospective buyer the extras that my Jetta has to offer. I think that this may help to justify my price point. I will also obtain a recent copy of the Car Fax report to highlight the fact that I am on the up and up and that I am not trying to hide anything, furthermore I will also provide the maintenance records as to show that the car was well cared for and prove that it is in good condition.
Buying a car is a high-involvement purchase as you can be faced was a large selection of choices. When figuring out which car to buy, consumers consult the advice of family and friends.

In today’s day and age of rapidly changing technology and ways of shopping, preparing to buy a vehicle can be a daunting task. What app should I download? Am I finding the best deals? Should I buy new or used? These are all very common questions to most people when they are preparing to buy a vehicle. The information is out there and attainable, you just have to know how to find it. Last year I had the opportunity to buy a vehicle, but my father also wanted me to learn about money in this process. I was very excited to get a new truck so he didn’t have to push very hard to get me to start looking, but he did give me some pointers along the way.
Buying a car can be one of the happiest times of a young adult's life, but when they find out the cost of a new car it gets scary. As a young adult, he or she may not be able to buy a brand-new car so they will need to buy a used car. I remember buying my first used car very well, it was About three weeks ago. I was very excited to be able to be my first car, but I quickly noticed that the amount of money that I had saved up was not much. I did not have many options when it came to cars. My parents wanted me to get a safe and reliable car but I went against that and bought my dream car a Ford Mustang GT. It was very hard for me to find a good condition Ford Mustang but with the right resources and help, I was able to buy my dream car.
I could feel the cold brisk air brushing up against my skin as I ventured through the darkness in this vacant parking lot on a dreary Sunday night in November. I could see a car in the distance and began to approach it. The car appeared to be an old rusted out vehicle with extremely tinted windows that were dark like death. As I looked inside the vehicle I noticed that the car was as clean as a crystal. Not a speck of dust could be found on the interior and the floor mats were completely spotless. It was as if the vehicle had never been driven before. I then put my hand on the door and proceeded to step inside of the vehicle. As I did so I felt a sensation through my whole body that made me tingle. It was an unwelcoming sensation as if I was entering a whole new world. As I sat down there's was a smell, a sheer clean smell similar to that of a fresh load of laundry. Goosebumps came about all over my body as adrenaline rushed through my veins. I put my hands on the steering wheel and my mind took me into another dimension. Taking a glance in the rearview mirror I could see a mysterious person approaching the vehicle. As I examined the person I came to the conclusion that this must be the owner of the vehicle. I noticed they were dressed in all black and carrying what seemed to be a grocery bag of some sort. In panic, I got out of the car and looked at what appeared to be a male figure. The man was very masculine and tall. His mere presence was enough to strike fear into
Vehicles are a part of a person’s everyday life these days. You see them everywhere, no matter if it’s a big city, or a little country town. People use cars to travel to all sorts of places, whether it is a school or work. We push our vehicles to the maximum so they seem to wear out really fast. It seems like every five to six years you have to purchase a new one. People have so many causes to by a new car these days but owning a car also comes with a lot of effects. New cars come with a lot of benefits like reliability and warranties. The biggest downfall with buying that brand-new car is the car payment and that expensive car insurance. A new car might look good, and you might get more attention, but you pay for that attention. You must ask yourself is the cost worth the award?
