Auto FYI By Art Jeffers, Columnist

When it’s time for your next car, truck, or SUV, where would you rather get your information? People don’t always agree on the best way to become a smart auto shopper.

Some car buyers would prefer to read Consumer Reports and the Kelley Blue Book. Others would rather use the consumerreports.org and kbb.com websites than spend hours looking at books and magazines.

Another group of car buyers would rather learn from personal experience than read what the experts have to say. They would rather do research by talking to friends and by paying attention to the cars they see on the road.

So, what about you? Would you prefer to rely on your personal experience to use a website? Or would you rather follow the advice of experts? Whatever you do, get as much information as possible before you buy your next vehicle.
