Certified Pre-Owned Trucks for Sale

When you’re buying a truck, there are some areas where you just can’t compromise. If you need to tow a specific trailer, you can’t go below the necessary towing capacity just to bring your truck under budget. And if you’re planning on going off-roading, it’s not safe to choose a model that doesn’t have the capability you need to handle the environment you’re going to be driving in. So, if you’re shopping on a budget, how are you supposed to find something affordable without compromising capability and safety? The answer is simple: consider a used model.

Good trucks are built to last for many years, even with heavy use, so you aren’t giving much up by choosing a model that’s older and has a fair amount of miles on it. But just because you can doesn’t mean you want to; older models don’t have much, if anything, in the way of warranty coverage, and they will generally have more issues than newer ones. If you’re looking for a middle ground between affordability and quality, you can find Certified Pre-Owned trucks for sale here at the Rusty Wallace Family of Dealerships. CPO models are held to higher standards than non-certified used models and come with warranty coverage along with other perks. We can help you find your dream truck in the CPO inventory of our Chevy, Ford, and Nissan dealerships.

What Are the Advantages of a CPO Truck?

Instead of turning to a third party for our certifications, we offer factory-backed programs that are designed for the brand you’re buying. This means you get quality warranty coverage and benefits specific to the automaker you’re working with; however, this means the benefits vary slightly depending on which brand of truck you prefer. So, let’s take a quick look at what Chevy, Ford, and Nissan have to offer.

Chevrolet certification is run by its parent company, General Motors, which offers its GM Certified CPO program. To be certified, a vehicle can’t be too old or have too many miles, and it has to have a clean title and pass a multi-point inspection. If it clears those bars, it will be presented with a hassle-free exchange policy, factory-backed warranty coverage, and perks like roadside assistance, scheduled maintenance, and maybe even trials for compatible services like satellite radio or OnStar features.

Ford’s CPO program is called Blue Advantage, and it breaks most vehicles into two categories: Blue Certified and Gold Certified. Gold Certified vehicles are held to the highest standards and come with the best warranty coverage, best perks, and most FordPass rewards points. Blue Certified vehicles are generally going to be less expensive, but they can be older and have more miles on them—and while they still have benefits, they’ll be less extensive than those for Gold Certified models. On top of that, only Ford vehicles are eligible to be Gold Certified, while a wider variety of makes and models can be Blue Certified. This two-tiered system gives customers more options to choose from so drivers with a variety of budgets can find what they’re looking for.

Nissan has a similar program, with Nissan Certified models offering the strictest standards and best coverage, while Certified Select models clear a lower bar and have less comprehensive coverage and perks while also offering a wider variety of makes and models. Like the other certification systems, Nissan’s includes perks like prepaid maintenance options, roadside assistance, and travel interruption coverage. Essentially, while there are definitely differences in the details, you can choose whichever brand you prefer to drive and trust that you can get a great deal on a well-covered CPO model.

Our Selection Encompasses Multiple Brands

When you work with the Rusty Wallace Family of Dealerships, you don’t have to drive from dealer to dealer comparing stock and prices; you don’t even have to click from website to website! You can see the entire inventory across all of our dealerships in one convenient page on our site and click a button to filter things down so that you’re just looking at CPO truck options. From there, you can sort and filter the models down further however you like and see which options you like best; only then do you need to visit in person, knowing the truck you’re interested in is there.

Our Nissan, Chevy, and Ford dealerships carry a wide variety of trucks of all shapes and sizes. The compact Ford Maverick is perfect for highway driving and navigating city streets, with a small turning radius that makes it easy to maneuver in tight spaces. Midsize models like the Chevy Colorado, Ford Ranger, and Nissan Frontier offer similar advantages compared to full-size trucks but are more rugged and offer plenty of off-road-capable trims as well as solid towing and hauling capacities.

Full-size trucks are the most popular because they provide fantastic capabilities and are highly configurable, with a variety of cab styles, bed lengths, and trim levels available. The Ford F-150, Chevy Silverado 1500, and Nissan Titan all offer models ranging from capable workhorses to off-road beasts to luxurious rides with lush cabins. If you need to tow or haul particularly heavy loads, you can upgrade to their heavy-duty counterparts, the Ford Super Duty, Chevy Silverado HD, and Nissan Titan XD. These models are generally pricier but give you plenty of extra capability for your buck.
