What interest rates do you think are being offered even with 720 credit score?Interest cost of a loan is dependent on balance financed at the same %. If you finance less than 100% of a principal at the same interest you always pay less interest cost.
In the case of a 5% rate on a 100k truck when you finance only 50k you're literally paying less than half the interest cost.
That's not even accounting for much lower payments which would lead me to believe someone with 50% downpayment would probably even get a better rate if going with 60, 48 months which in turn leads to an even less interest cost.
Of course a 1.99% is sweet/better but rates now are limiting affordability and also having people bring more cash to lower interest cost.
It’s so hit or miss. My credit score is well above 800 and even with a more than 20% down payment, the local credit union is at 5.79% for 72 and the dealership is 7-9% depending on a few things.What interest rates do you think are being offered even with 720 credit score?

Some are showing 2.99% but if your financing any balance most dealerships require you to use their in-house financing your looking at 5%-9%.
Friemd of mine is F&I at a cadillac dealership
I stick by my statement in todays world it's a monstrous interest rate albeit on a smaller balance.
I’m just planning to lock in whatever I can and then watch it like a Hawk and refinance as soon as possible when (hopefully) the market makes its turn. Wishful thinking anywaysNobody will give you 2.99 unless its 36mo or something like that or it's a manufacturer straight deal.
Fed funds rate is sitting at 4.5%. They would be making no money from you if they loaned the money at lower than say 4.7-5.0
I did a few apps just a week ago and at 72mo lowest I saw was 5.04%. Even a few local credit unions were giving me 5.75%. Rates will increase again approx in a month. Jump will most likely be .25-.5%
Was my pleasure and thank you for coming in to pick it up. It was a pleasure and all smiles. #SmilesWithMilesPicked up my blue baby today! I will get her home on Tuesday. Stopping in Gatlinburg for a few days. Thanks @Miles Goff !!!

I called the first 2023 listing that showed up in MA a week or two ago. It was a customer order they had not yet received, if they were being truthful.I've seen several posts on FB where dealers are selling MY 23 that's been delivered and yet mine is not even scheduled for production yet![]()

I thought this truck was going to go from 0-60 in 3.9!I am in KZ Hell, mine was built with a WS on like 12/16, Estimated Delivery was 1/12.

The Chickenmust hate me..
I don’t want to bother my dealer all the time, but disappointed right now I know anything at all. (ignorance is bliss, as the saying goes)
It was all over the day I saw it get scheduled, then in production, then built! Whoa! But when the Window Sticker came out, I started buying accessories![]()
