Unlock the Power of a Down Payment and Trade-In
While we work hard to secure financing for every customer, providing a down payment can significantly improve your chances of approval and lead to better loan terms. A down payment reduces the total amount you need to borrow, which lowers the lender's risk. This can result in a lower interest rate and a more affordable monthly payment. Even a small amount can make a big difference.
Do you have a vehicle you are currently driving? Trading it in is an excellent way to cover some or all of your down payment. We offer competitive, fair-market values for trade-ins. You can get an instant estimate of your car's worth by using our online value my trade tool. Combining a cash down payment with your trade-in value can put you in a very strong position to get the best possible deal on your next SUV.
Rebuild Your Credit While Driving a Reliable SUV
One of the most significant benefits of securing an auto loan through our dealership is the opportunity it provides to rebuild your credit. Unlike some "buy here, pay here" lots, the lenders we work with report your payment history to the major credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion). This means that every on-time payment you make acts as a positive mark on your credit report. Over the life of the loan, this consistent payment history can lead to a substantial increase in your credit score. A higher credit score opens doors to better financing opportunities in the future for a home, credit cards, and more. It is not just about buying a car; it is an investment in your financial recovery.

Can I get an SUV loan with a past bankruptcy?
Yes, absolutely. We work with lenders who specialize in helping customers with a past bankruptcy, whether it is a Chapter 7 or Chapter 13. A discharged bankruptcy is often seen as a fresh start, and we can help you secure a loan to begin rebuilding your credit profile. Contact our finance team to discuss your specific circumstances.
What is the minimum credit score required for SUV financing?
We do not have a strict minimum credit score requirement. We believe that a score does not tell the whole story. We evaluate your entire financial profile, including your income, employment history, and the size of your down payment, to get you approved. We have successfully secured financing for customers with scores across the entire spectrum.
How much of a down payment do I need for a bad credit SUV loan?
While a down payment is not always mandatory, providing one can greatly increase your approval odds and help you get a lower interest rate. The amount can vary, but even $500 or $1,000 can make a significant difference. Trading in your current vehicle is also an excellent way to contribute to a down payment. You can learn more at our financing frequently asked questions page.
Can I trade in my current vehicle if I still owe money on it?
Yes, you can. In many cases, we can incorporate the remaining balance of your current loan into your new financing package. Our team will appraise your vehicle and handle all the necessary paperwork to pay off your existing loan. Use our Value My Trade tool to get a preliminary estimate of what your car is worth today.
What documents do I need to bring to finalize my loan?
To finalize your loan and speed up the process, it is helpful to bring a few key documents. These typically include a valid driver's license, proof of income (such as recent pay stubs), proof of residence (like a utility bill), and proof of auto insurance. Having these items ready will help us get you on the road in your new SUV as quickly as possible.
