Buying a used car,
or trying to, anyway
Reno.com editor Megg Mueller writes Reno 360º, a blog for those who love Reno and aren't afraid to admit it.
I'm trying to buy a car right now ... two, in fact. For my kids. One's about to get her license, the other just totaled her car. So needless to say, I've been surfing Craigslist pretty much nonstop for weeks now, and I'm noticing some patterns about our local used car market ...
1) There are an insane amount of Jeep Cherokees for sale in this town. And they're cheap, for the most part. But I owned a Jeep Cherokee, and didn't have great luck, so .. pass.
2) A lot of jerks are using Craigslist to try and rip people off. At least a few times a day you see an ad that says something like "2004 Acura, $3000!"
