Her silver 4WD almost felt like brand new. No doubt its previous owner surely took good care of it. I worried out loud if the car would require a lot of maintenance in the following years.

And as for maintenance and repairs, aside from the car dealership where she bought the sedan, she knows of a GM dealer that offers the above services in case she would need any. After a smooth and uneventful ride, I congratulated my aunt for making a good buy.

For parts that are too large to transport, some junkyards would actually haul it for you. Examples of such parts include the hood, trunk lid or roof. Some people may decide to buy the whole junk car and scrap it themselves. Although you have to enquire about this during your first call. You want to know if this added service is free or if you have to pay for the haulage. It is best to compare costs across different junkyards in order to make an informed decision. If the price of one junkyard is too high, you can always try another. You are under no obligation to purchase the spare part especially if the terms of purchase do not sit well with you.
