Are you out shopping for a new Toyota near Orlando, or just shopping for a new ride in general and having a hard time narrowing down your choices? It can be tough, that’s for sure. However, that’s what we’re for! We’re here to help you whittle down your list of possibilities and find the perfect ride for you and your drive time needs. That’s why we’re breaking down true cost to own and why it’s so important to consider in your search!
What is true cost to own?
First of all, what is true cost to own? It’s basically the how much money it will cost you to run and maintain your Toyota car near Orlando over a five-year period. It’s broken down into the following elements:
- Price of the car when you buy it (sticker price)
- The taxes and fees you pay when you purchase the car
- The interest you'll pay on your financing
- The cost of insurance for your new Toyota near Orlando
- How much it will cost you to fuel the car
- Any tax breaks you might get (in some states, you might get a tax break for driving an eco-friendly new Clermont Toyota hybrid or electric car)
- The amount of money you'll need to do routine maintenance and repairs
And that’s it! True cost to own is calculated over a five-year period for car owners (it can’t be calculated the same way for a lease) who plan to drive about 15,000 miles a year. It’s very important to think about before you sign the dotted line for a new Toyota near Orlando. True cost to own will help you REALLY estimate how much money it’ll cost you to keep the car! After all, it’s a lot more gas to fuel up a Toyota Tundra every day than to run a Toyota Corolla on a day-to-day basis. True cost to own helps you figure out costs customized to your drive time needs!
