Product Description

The Used Car Book is the best way to ensure you get a good deal on a used car and avoid hidden repairs and added costs.

Long known as the most consumer-oriented car buyer's guide and completely updated, The Used Car Book 2002-2003 has maintained the classic simplicity that for 14 years has led hundreds of thousands of car buyers to the best choices among the more than 40 million used vehicles sold each year.

While other car guides offer only manufacturer's specifications, The Used Car Book 2002-2003 sifts through the claims, the facts, the specifications, and with unique performance measurements evaluates cars, minivans, and SUVs.

The Used Car Book 2002-2003 contains full-page entries for each automobile including:

  • Summaries of each model
  • Overall performance charts covering fuel economy, preventative maintenance costs, insurance ratings, crash test results, customer satisfaction, and other features
  • A unique chart comparing each model to similar models made by other manufacturers
  • Information on standard and optional equipment
  • Black & white photographs of the new model

There is also Gillis's "Best Bets," as well as advice on avoiding lemons, the best tires to buy, showroom strategies, savings on insurance, understanding the manufacturer's warranty, and more.

Jack Gillis once again proves why he is America's most sought after consumer expert on cars.

4.0 out of 5 stars A really good book!, April 14, 2002
A Kid's Review
This was a really good book. Here are some of the reasons I like it.

It has to photos of the car, both different years, They have them going all the way back to about 1992, and it showes the reviews on it. Not just a little bit of reviewing, but a huge review. I didn't even know that the Ford Windstar was going to replace the Ford Aerostar for 1995, and I have been studying cars since 1999, and my family owns a Ford Aerostar. It was very helpful. I found out what happened to cars that were made in the 80's. Very good book. I just really liked it. I think its the best used car book you can get!
