Leasing vs. Purchasing: Purchasing a vehicle can be an exciting but nerve-racking experience. First-time or experienced vehicle shoppers can be unsure of their options during the process. Choosing between Leasing and Purchasing a vehicle is often a tough decision. Before deciding which path to take, it's imperative you understand the key differences between the two. Benefits of Leasing: When you lease a vehicle, you essentially rent that vehicle for a specific period of time. That time frame can last anywhere between 24- 48 months, sometimes even longer. Once your lease period ends, you can return the vehicle to the dealer or purchase it at a pre-determined amount, which would be agreed upon in the lease contract. From there you are able to lease a new vehicle and repeat that same process. One benefit of leasing a vehicle is that there is no long-term commitment. This can be a great option when you are unsure of your personal long-term needs. Also, this allows you to try out a variety of options during a period of time. This may be the best option for you, depending on your vehicle preferences or financial status. Benefits of Purchasing: Purchasing a vehicle is essentially taking ownership of the vehicle. This is great for those looking for a long-term investment. Anyone  who likes to keep a vehicle as long as possible, this is the option for you! If you enjoy having full ownership of your purchases, then purchasing a vehicle could be your best option. Which is best for you? As you can tell, there is many ups and downs to both leasing and purchasing. These  are both great options and can be beneficial for different points in your life. Now that you know the key differences between leasing and purchasing it should be a much easier decision. Just remember, it all comes down to which fits your needs and wants better. Take the Quiz! Determine whether leasing or purchasing is a better fit for you. 1. How long do you keep your vehicle? a. 2-3 years b. 4-5 years c. 6+ years 2. How many miles do you put on your vehicle each year? a. 8k-12k b. 13k-17k c. 17k+ 3. At the end of your contract, you tend to: a. trade- in your existing vehicle for a new one b. sell your existing vehicle before purchasing another c. keep your vehicle after payoff 4. How did you obtain your existing vehicle? a. lease b. finance c. cash 5. What enhancements do you make to your vehicle? a. none, I maintain its factory condition b. I make minor adjustments c.

Buying a vehicle can be an overwhelming experience, but here at Jim Shorkey Auto Group, we want to make it as easy as possible for you. One of the biggest questions when you’re buying a new vehicle is: What is GAP insurance and when do you need it? We asked Chris Tarwacki, one of our finance mangers at Kia Wexford, to explain GAP insurance, so you’re prepared when you come into one of our dealerships. What does GAP stand for and what does it do? Guaranteed Asset Protection protects you during the event of a total loss situation. Your vehicles value at the time of an accident is most likely going to be much less that the balance owed. Therefor creating a "GAP" between the two numbers which the customer is responsible for. Does it only cover accidents? As a matter of fact, the GAP coverage we provide covers fire, theft, flood, and accidents. When would I need a GAP policy? There are many different situations where this coverage is highly recommended although here are the most critical situations: Anytime you are rolling over a balance (negative equity) from a trade in vehicle, making a purchase with less than 25% down or a used car purchase that the bank views as a potential risk. Example: Older model with high mileage On average how much would it affect my monthly payment? Depending on the length of your loan this coverage is only about $10 - $15 a month Should I purchase GAP from the dealer or my insurance company? Here at Jim Shorkey our product provider does not charge a deductible, they cover up to a 150 percent of the loan value and will never let a negative balance jeopardize your credit. Can I add this coverage at a later date? GAP needs to be purchased during your dealership visit so you are fully covered at all times. Should I be more likely to purchase GAP on a new or used vehicle? GAP is recommended on both purchases although its more so on a used vehicle because the lack of factory rebates and already established mileage.

The Sorento is available in a hybrid option as well for even more economy. The Sorento comes standard with an 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability.

Chevy Traverse SUV The 2021 Chevy Traverse is one of the few vehicles in this segment that offers seating for up to 8 passengers, with either captain’s chairs or a bench seat in the second row, plus a bench seat in the third row. In addition, it also offers best-in-class cargo capacity, which means you can fit almost anything you need to without having to move up to an even larger SUV.

We are springing into Summer soon and that means… SUMMER VACATIONS! May - September is Road Trip season; here at Jim Shorkey Auto group, we are ready to get your vehicle Road-Trip-Ready! It is important your car is prepared for any kind of road trip. Before you hit the road, you should ALWAYS pre-check your vehicle to make sure it is in prime condition to hit the road, Jack! Whether you are driving a short distance or across the country, use these tips to make sure your car is prepared for your next adventure. Lights Check to make sure all lights are working! This includes brake lights, turn signals, headlights, and reverse lights. Not only do lights out cause a caution to you and other drivers, but you can be pulled over by the police because of an out light. Checking lights is any easy task to check off the list! Fluids Check the fluids! This includes oil, transmission fluid, antifreeze, windshield washer fluid and brake fluid. Check your oil levels and when you are due for an oil change. If you are close to your date and/or mileage, it is recommended to change oil before embarking on your road trip. Dirty air filters can waste fuel and cause the engine to lose power. A supply of clean air to your engine improves the vehicle’s performance and efficiency. This will help you avoid an accident or breakdown! Tread & Tire Pressure Check your tires! Under inflated tires reduce a vehicle’s fuel economy, and uneven tire wear indicates a need for wheel alignment. Tires should also be checked for bulges and bald spots. If the tires are showing any tread wear, replace the tires. Make sure all of your tires are inflated to correct amount of tire pressure. The pressure marked on the side of the tire is the max, which must not be exceeded. Also, do not forget to check the pressure of your spare tire. This is often neglected. Not doing so will turn a bad time into a worse one if the spare is unusable. Engine Check your engine! Make sure it is delivering the best balance of power and fuel economy and producing the lowest level of emissions. This checklist of vehicle road trip “To Dos” is a full inspection of your vehicle and it will definitely ease your mind and help make your road trip safer. Stop in at any of the Jim Shorkey Auto Group locations for your vehicle inspection before you venture on your road trip. In our next blog, we will have a series of 3-row vehicles, perfect for a road trip! Stay tuned!
