Today on Auto Insider, Ray and Zach discuss what you need to know about buying a car during the Covid-19 pandemic. Ray explains what manufacturer incentives are in place to help dealerships sell more cars, and why prices are so high right now (supply is low).

What I’m about to say may sound foolish, but it’s true. When it comes to buying a car, knowing how much you are going to spend is more difficult than it might seem. Getting access to the out-the-door price (an industry term for the total cost to purchase a vehicle), is absolutely necessary, but many car shoppers don’t know to ask for it.

Today on Auto Insider, Zach and Ray discuss what the out-the-door price is, and why you need to be aware of it before you buy a car, truck, or SUV.

Ah, the age-old question: Should you lease your next automobile or buy it instead? Conventional wisdom once told us leasing wasn’t a great idea because at the end of the lease term, you’d have nothing to show for all the money you’d spent.

So what’s the right solution for you? Let’s take a look at some of the pros and cons of leasing and buying, then we’ll talk about what type of owner you might be to help guide your decision. And last but not least, we’ll go through a couple of key concepts—what money factor is, and why down payments are two totally different things in leasing versus buying. 

Should you buy or lease? Let’s find out!
