6 Used Cars With Top Safety Marks
November 12, 2015
Next to price, safety is one of the biggest deciding factors when it comes to purchasing a vehicle. After all, a car or truck that doesn't keep you and your passengers safe while traveling from Point A to Point B is not something you would want to sink your hard-earned money into.
US News & World Reports recently released their top used car picks when it comes to safety. Even better? All six vehicles cost and average of less than $21,000. Vehicles on the list include the 2012 Honda Civic, 2011 Ford Taurus and 2011 Chevrolet Malibu.
If you're considering purchasing any of these top safety picks, I recommend you use TrueCar No Haggle and CarsDirect to see the best deals being offered in your area.
