Navigating the Gold, Silver, and Bronze Tiers

SmartBuy categorizes inventory into three clear tiers based on age and mileage, helping you choose the level of value, condition, and protection that best fits your needs.

  • Gold Tier: Under 80,000 miles and less than 8 years old. Includes 12-Month/12,000-Mile Powertrain Coverage, 1-Month/1,000-Mile Platinum Coverage or remaining factory warranty, two keys, and a $0 deductible.
  • Silver Tier: 80,000 to 120,000 miles or 8 to 12 years old. Includes 3-Month/3,000-Mile Powertrain Coverage, two keys, and a $0 deductible.

These tiers make it easier to compare late-model options, value-focused family vehicles, and affordable secondary vehicles without guesswork.
