We can&#8217;t really sell a car to a person who can&#8217;t drive it. Also, if will want to take a few laps around sales lot for a test drive, we need to see that you are legal to get behind the wheel.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Car Title<\/strong> \u2014 Having your car&#8217;s title is a very close second for the most important documents to have when buying a car. We understand that sometimes things get lost. Most of the time we can get the needed copies from the department of motor vehicles, but if we can work with the originals \u2013 even better.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Proof of insurance<\/strong> \u2014 Make sure your insurance information is handy and up to date. This will really get things running smoothly. For the most part, if you already have car insurance it&#8217;s simply a matter of swapping out the vehicle information on the policy.<\/p>\n<h3>What should I bring with my trade-in?<\/h3>\n<p>If you are <a href=\"http:\/\/www.houstonford.com\/clp-february-used-car-sale-brainerd-mn\">trading in your previous vehicle<\/a>, make sure you bring all of the spare keys, keyfobs and manuals. This also includes as many pieces of information about any upgrades you&#8217;ve made to systems like the stereo or other electronics as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Feel free to get in touch with a Houston Ford sales professional if you need more information about which documents you need to buy a car or any other questions you might have.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What should I bring to the dealership to buy a car?
