"I was looking at a 2019 Subaru Outback that seemed perfect, but the tool flagged several red flags. It showed transmission issues and the price was above market value. I passed and found a better option. The $29 I spent saved me thousands."

"As a single mom, I needed a reliable car that wouldn't break the bank. The report gave me so much confidence! It showed excellent reliability scores and helped me budget properly. No surprises, no regrets."

"I was torn between two trucks. The comparison was eye-opening - the F-150 had better reliability and lower costs. I used the data to negotiate $1,200 off. The report paid for itself 40 times over."

Why Decide Before Buying Exists

Most free tools focus on listings, incentives, or dealer pricing. They don't tell you whether the deal actually makes sense for you.

Decide Before Buying exists to answer one question: "Should I buy this car — at this price — right now?"

Pricing

One product. One goal: reduce regret before you pay.

When this is worth it

If you are about to spend thousands on a vehicle decision, a small, objective report is a rational hedge. Use it to negotiate, validate, or walk away quickly.

Designed for: used cars, private sales, high-mileage vehicles, and borderline deals.
