About to purchase my first vehicle
i felt the same way in 1998 when Georges relieved me of my 1991 Nissan Sentra. i had a deep hatred for that car.
As much as i'd love to have one of these
it would take something really special for me to finance a movable in the foreseeable future. the opportunity cost is too great for me.
That being said, the OP is GOING to buy a truck and he is GOING to finance it. So if he's looking for any advice there, i'd say go to a credit union, get a pre-approved loan, and negotiate price to within an inch of that salesman's life.
If OP is a USAA member, today they are advertising car loan rates as low as 5.39%. Navy Federal Credit Union, others along those lines may give you a similar deal. Helps to be military, but really any credit union is likely to be more friendly than a bank.
The last (and hopefully ONLY) time i financed a vehicle, it was through Chevron's credit union, and that was a good experience.
If you finance through a dealership you are most likely to get a bank, or worse.
