If the cost of buying a vehicle isn't in the household budget, and leasing doesn't fit fiscal requirements, shoppers might consider purchasing something in the pre-owned market. NADA Used Car Guide's August Perspective report provides information on Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) vehicle programs, which offer significant savings when compared to new models.
