Your Task

Locate two used cars  at a car dealership which is located within a 100 mile radius of where you live.  These two cars should be of the same make and model (if possible) as the car chosen in Step One.

One of the cars should be 1 to 3 years old.  The data obtained from this car will be entered in column 2 (the 1 - 3 years old column) of the Decision Matrix.  

The other used car should be 4 to 6 years old.  The data obtained from this car will be entered in column 3 (the 4 - 6 year old column) of the Decision Matrix.

Talk with your local car dealer  to get the specific information you need regarding the cars of your choice.  Add this information to the Decision Matrix.

Document Your Visit to the Car Dealer by getting a copy of the Car Condition Report, Wisconsin Buyers Guide, or similar printout from the dealer. (See sample in Figure 1.  Click on Figure 1 for an enlarge view.)
