Price-first shopping around Lodi and Bergen County can mean very different things depending on what the vehicle needs to do. A buyer looking at a 4WD pickup is not shopping the same way as someone who wants a small hatchback for errands, and both are different from the person checking the very bottom of the price list. The key is to compare the facts honestly before getting excited about a low number.

Here are four current A&W Auto Truck Wholesalers listings that show those tradeoffs clearly: a 2017 Ram 1500 Big Horn 4x4 Crew Cab, a 2014 Nissan Versa Note SV hatchback, a 2010 Mazda Mazda6 i Touring Plus, and a 2006 Subaru Legacy Wagon 2.5i Ltd Auto. All four are listed in Lodi, but each one deserves a different buyer conversation.

2017 Ram 1500 Big Horn 4x4 Crew Cab: truck money versus mileage

The 2017 Ram 1500 Big Horn 4x4 Crew Cab 5'7" Box is listed at $12,997 with 185,177 miles. The current listing shows stock number 89901N, Gray exterior color, 4WD, Pickup truck body type, a 3.6 Liter V6 Cylinder Engine, automatic transmission, and gasoline fuel.

The draw here is simple: it puts a 4WD Ram pickup under $13,000. The tradeoff is just as clear: the mileage is already 185,177, so this should not be treated like a low-mile truck. For shoppers in Lodi, Passaic, Hackensack, Garfield, or along Route 46, the right question is whether the 4WD pickup format and price point are worth a careful look in person. Check how it starts, drives, shifts, stops, and feels on local roads before making the number the whole story.

2014 Nissan Versa Note SV: budget hatchback with lower mileage for age

The 2014 Nissan Versa Note 5dr HB CVT 1.6 SV is listed at $6,497 with 65,943 miles. The listing shows stock number 89912N, Metallic Peacock exterior color, FWD, Hatchback body type, a 1.6 4 Cylinder Engine, automatic transmission, and gasoline fuel.

This is the cleaner budget-car conversation of the group because the mileage is much lower than the ultra-cheap cars below. It may fit someone looking for a smaller commuter, a local errand car, or a first-car candidate, but the facts still need to be checked on the lot. At this price range, focus on how it drives, whether the size works for your daily routine, and how the price compares with mileage and age.

2010 Mazda Mazda6: $1,997, but the mileage is the headline too

The 2010 Mazda Mazda6 4dr Sdn Auto i Touring Plus is listed at $1,997 with 384,868 miles. The listing shows stock number 89801N, Blue exterior color, 4dr Car body type, a 2.5 4 Cylinder Engine, automatic transmission, and gasoline fuel.

This should be framed as an inspection-first vehicle, not a hype post. The price is attention-grabbing, but 384,868 miles is extremely high. A shopper considering it should ask direct questions, look closely, and understand exactly why the car is being considered: temporary transportation, a very tight budget, or another specific use case. Do not shop this one like a normal low-mile sedan.

2006 Subaru Legacy Wagon: the lowest listed price, with age and mileage attached

The 2006 Subaru Legacy Wagon 2.5i Ltd Auto is listed at $1,497 with 201,683 miles. The listing shows Regal Blue Pearl exterior color, Station Wagon body type, a 2.5 4 Cylinder Engine, automatic transmission, and gasoline fuel.

Like the Mazda6, this is a transparency-first option. The price is very low, but the model year and mileage matter. Anyone looking at it should inspect carefully, drive it, ask what is known, and decide whether the low entry price makes sense for their situation.

Best way to shop this Monday list

If you need a 4WD pickup and can accept higher mileage, start with the Ram. If you want the most straightforward budget commuter angle here, start with the Versa Note. If your budget is extremely tight, the Mazda6 and Legacy Wagon may be worth asking about, but only with clear eyes. Availability can change quickly, so verify first with A&W Auto Truck Wholesalers at 23 US-46 West in Lodi, NJ.
