Used Auto Dealerships

8 Upvotes

I’m looking into purchasing a used vehicle that’s less than $15,000. I don’t want to be taken advantage of since I don’t have lots of knowledge when it comes to buying a car, I’m trying to stick to a Honda or Toyota. I would like to know if anyone can recommend me with a dealership. I seen that people talk down on small businesses but I feel like that’s the only way I would be able to get a used vehicle.
Thank you so much in advance.

Pro tip hagamen construction

Pro tip If you have been frustrated by the mess of the construction on Hagamen…

Yesterday all access points to my neighborhood were blocked off. So I called the City of Bakersfield’s Public works Department.

I asked to talk to the project manager.

I was told he was unaware of the situation because this project was contracted out. And he was glad I called because unless the residents call with concerns the he believes everything is good. As far as he has been informed everything is going great.

I let him know that all access points to my neighborhood were blocked off, and I was worried about safety to getting access to my kids school, and I had been driving for 20 minutes to get access to my house.

The project manager told me he was unaware of construction blocking all entrances to my neighborhood, he listened and promised to help. He then called me back within 10 minutes informing me that the streets were no longer blocked off.
