A great test drive covers comfort, handling, and features. Pay attention to how the seat fits, steering feel, visibility, and braking response. Test different road conditions if possible-highways, city streets, and turns-to get a true sense of the vehicle. Ask our team about warranty coverage, maintenance costs, fuel economy, and any special features or technology. Don't hesitate to ask them to explain the infotainment system or safety features. Most test drives last 15-30 minutes, which gives you a solid feel for the car. Our team at Castle Cadillac McHenry is here to answer every question-no pressure, just honest guidance.
