Scroll through the menu of topics to find the one that you want to learn more about then tap on it to display information. Even the way the content is written is pleasing to users as it’s short, sweet, and right to the point. This isn’t about pages and pages of just one description; instead, the information is a short and simple read.

There are no added features, which aren’t really missed. The only thing this app could include is a way to share these tips and information by email and/or social media. Some users have complained that the information is too basic but that is a matter of personal opinion. If you are a first-time car buyer the information here will likely all be new and all be helpful.
