Real Stories from Real Buyers

"I was looking at a 2019 Subaru Outback that seemed perfect - low miles, good price, one owner. But something felt off about the deal. I ran it through Decide Before Buying and it flagged several red flags I hadn't considered."

"The tool showed me that this specific year had transmission issues reported by multiple owners, and the asking price was actually above market value when you factored in the known problems. I passed on it and found a 2020 model with better reliability scores for the same price. The $29 I spent on the report saved me thousands in potential repair costs."

"As a single mom, I needed a reliable car that wouldn't break the bank. I found a 2017 Honda CR-V that looked great, but I was nervous about buying used. My mechanic friend recommended I check out Decide Before Buying first."

"The report gave me so much confidence! It showed the CR-V had excellent reliability scores, low maintenance costs, and the specific car I was looking at was priced fairly. The 5-year cost projection helped me budget properly. I bought the car and it's been perfect for 8 months now. No surprises, no regrets."

"I was torn between two trucks - a 2018 Ford F-150 and a 2019 Ram 1500. Both were similar prices and mileage. I couldn't decide which was the better value, so I ran both through the tool."

"The comparison was eye-opening. The F-150 had better reliability scores and lower maintenance costs, but the Ram had fewer owner complaints. The tool's risk assessment showed the F-150 was the safer bet for my business needs. I went with the F-150 and used the data to negotiate $1,200 off the asking price. The report paid for itself 40 times over."
