12 Safe & Affordable Used Vehicles
October 1, 2015
Next to price, safety is one of the most important factors car shoppers consider before deciding on a vehicle. Last week, Forbes released a list of the 12 safest used cars that are all under $19,000. So not only do these vehicles have great safety records, but they won't completely empty your wallet. Vehicles on the list include the Subaru Legacy, Honda Pilot AWD, Ford Flex 2WD, and Acura TSX.
As always, I recommend using TrueCar No Haggle and CarsDirect
to see the lowest prices being offered in your area.
