Test Drive Technologies was founded to help used car buyers know what they are about to purchase… We do this by fully inspecting each vehicle offered to us. We know that there are some other “choices” in the auto inspection industry such as “Lemon Squad”, “AIM” “CarChex” & “Magoo’s”… They do a great job pointing out issues such as previous wreck repair, body damage, inoperative features and sometimes a leak or two but what they are failing to point out is the mechanical issues that you are stuck with after you purchase the vehicle… Here at Test Drive Technologies we carry the equipment in our truck necessary to lift a vehicle at all four corners so we can fully inspect the… We have also included some average repair cost so you know what these other companies could be costing you if they miss something…

These are all pieces and parts of a vehicle that cannot be examined without lifting a car or truck at least a few inches… Many auto inspection companies claim that they can “feel” issues during a “test drive” but in many cases issues are hidden by road conditions and driving styles. Many of today’s vehicles (even trucks) sit too low to the ground for the average person to see anything under the vehicle without lifting it. We carry jacks, jack stands, lifting equipment and protective blocks so we can lift nearly any used car, luxury car, high performance car or light truck onsite… Knowing what is under the vehicle is much more important than what it looks like on the outside… We are here to be your hands and eyes on the ground when you need us. Feel free to take a look at one of our actual past auto inspections so you can see exactly what type of service we provide.
