Are used car lots a good deal?

For the past few months I’ve been looking for a used car for my daughter… very used.

But what I buy her and how much I spend isn’t the main issue of this blog. My question is about the number of small used car lots that are in and around Fayette County.

Would you purchase a car from them?

If you drive on Ga. 54 by Piedmont Fayette Hospital, there is a car lot right next to the hospital.

Also, on Ga. 85, just about 3 miles South of the Courthouse intersection, there’s another used car lot.

A few of them dot Ga. 85 as you head towards Riverdale. While I haven’t seen what I’m looking for in those places, it’s very tempting to consider their inventory because I don’t want to spend $20 in gas driving to Kennesaw, Norcross or any other location over 30 miles away.

(By the way, that seems to be my stock answer to everything- “I don’t want to drive anywhere because of the cost of gasoline).

So what do you think? Should I even bother looking at those smaller lots? Have you ever bought a car from one of those places? Tell me your experience if you did.
