The Used Toyota Corolla: A Small Car With Big Value
The compact, characterful Toyota Corolla is a smart choice for drivers who appreciate fuel efficiency, safety, and everyday practicality. If you’re looking to start driving soon in a reliable, good-looking car that doesn’t break the bank, you should certainly consider a used Toyota Corolla.
Outstanding Gas Mileage
The Corolla is a famously fuel-efficient vehicle. Each of its many trims delivers an impressive number of miles for each gallon. With some trims, the MPG ratings start in the 30s for city driving and 40s for the highway. When you opt for a hybrid or all-wheel-drive Corolla model, MPG may reach above 50. This makes them cheaper to drive than many other used cars, and environmentally friendly to boot.
Very Affordable Price Tag
A pre-owned Corolla is a wonderfully budget-friendly option. You’ll be pleasantly pleased with the discounts you get after the initial years of depreciation that almost all cars experience. If easy, safe, cost-efficient transportation is your aim, one of these cars will really help your ongoing finances, with all the peace of mind that brings. Pay us a visit to see for yourself the kinds of discounts on offer with pre-owned Corollas.
Safe and Supported Driving
Corollas are very safe cars to drive, with superb NHTSA safety ratings. They come with plenty of standard driver-assistance technology, which typically includes signpost recognition, forward-collision warning, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high beams.
As with all used vehicles, you may also find previously installed optional features. Take a test drive to see which features each of our pre-owned Corollas includes.
Easy Handling and Parking
The Corolla’s compact size comes with advantages. You’ll find it easy to maneuver and slip into parking spots, which is especially useful in a busy urban environment. Despite being a slightly smaller car, the interior’s design makes excellent use of space, providing good legroom and cargo storage capacity.
Vehicle History Reports
In the past, it was harder to buy a used car because people didn’t have easy access to vehicle history reports. Nowadays, these reports, compiled by reputable online services like CARFAX and AutoCheck, detail the accident and service history of any used car. You can use them to check how diligently the previous owner carried out oil changes and other vital services.
Easy Long-Term Maintenance
Speaking of maintenance, the Corolla is a well-built car with terrific longevity as long as you look after it. With routine maintenance, you’ll keep your used Corolla running smoothly for a great many years.
Visit United Auto Sales of Utica in Yorkville, NY, to take a used Corolla for a spin. We’ve been in business for over 75 years and have won awards for exceptional customer service.

At United Auto Sales, giving back to our community is at the heart of what we do. This August, our dealerships came together for our 2nd Annual Backpack & School Supplies Drive—and we’re thrilled to share the impact it made!
With generous donations collected across all eight of our dealerships, we were able to purchase and deliver over 500 backpacks, each filled with essential school supplies, to local elementary students. Our goal was simple: to help students in need start the school year strong and on the right foot—and thanks to our team and community, we did just that.
One Friday, a dedicated group of our employees rolled up their sleeves and spent the day packing the backpacks with everything a student might need:
- Notebooks
- Folders
- Pencils
- Crayons
- A ruler
- Glue sticks
- Erasers
- Highlighters
- A pencil pouch
Each dealership then proudly donated the backpacks to local schools in their community:
- United Auto Sales, Steet Ponte VW, Steet Ponte Ford Lincoln, Steet Ponte Mazda, Steet Toyota of Yorkville, and Steet Ponte Nissan: 250 backpacks to the Utica City School District
We are incredibly proud of our team and grateful for everyone who contributed to make this initiative possible. Education is one of the most powerful tools for a brighter future, and we’re honored to support local students as they head back into the classroom this school year.
Here’s to another successful drive—and to continuing our tradition of giving back to the communities we serve!
The Frontier is a powerful, reliable, good-looking mid-sized pickup that’s earned plenty of awards for sheer bang-for-your-buck value. When you opt for a pre-owned Nissan Frontier, you get even more value, skipping the first few years of depreciation to enjoy a considerable discount on a truck that will perform wonderfully for many years to come.
Exceptional Durability
As any Frontier owner knows, these trucks don’t let you down. When well-maintained, your Frontier can be expected to last 200,000 miles with ease, which is more than two decades for some drivers. Given this extraordinary durability, it makes perfect sense to buy a used model that’s only a few years old; many used Frontiers are still in their youth and only just getting started.
Vehicle History Reports
You can rest assured as to the quality of a used Frontier. We run each model through a thorough multipoint inspection, testing every performance aspect, before accepting it onto our lot. On top of this, you can readily access a detailed vehicle history report from a reputable service like VINCheck or CARFAX. These reports let you know how well the previous owner carried out routine maintenance and generally took care of the truck.
Hefty Upfront Discounts
All cars and trucks, even those still in like-new condition, undergo steep depreciation during the first few years. This means, as the used-truck buyer, you may find 30, 40, and even 50 percent discounts on a used Frontier. Your insurance costs will also be lower, making for a very wise financial decision.
More Variety in Configurations
When considering used Frontiers, you’ll see that you have more variety in your options than with new models. Prior owners have typically already installed advanced features and upgrades, creating interesting configurations suited for specific tasks and preferences. So as you browse pre-owned models, you’re more likely to find just the right Frontier and features for you.
Powerful Towing and Payload Capacity
The Frontier is well-known as a reliable workhorse of a pickup. Its powerful 3.8-liter V6 engine delivers 310 horsepower and 281 lb-ft of torque, allowing for excellent towing capacities. When properly equipped, top Frontier trims can tow up to 6,690 pounds and carry a maximum 1,620 pounds of payload. For a mid-sized truck, the Frontier can handle impressively difficult jobs.
Old School Charm and Style
Finally, let’s not forget how good-looking and downright charming the Frontier is. Many drivers love the Frontier for its old-school appeal, with a design that harkens back to an earlier era. Like a reliable lifelong friend, the Frontier’s forthright, solid, dependable character and performance keep you feeling well-supported wherever you go.
Visit United Auto Sales of Utica in Yorkville, NY, today to find the perfect used Frontier at a very competitive price.
