How to Get a Good Rate on Your Car Loan
When you buy a car, you actually have three separate things you need to negotiate with the dealer.
- The price of the car
- The price of the trade-in
- The loan
To confuse customers, dealers will try to wrap this all together into one monthly payment. Don't fall for it. First negotiate the car, then the trade-in, and finally the loan.
When you're ready to buy a car or truck, go to a couple of banks first. Get pre-qualified for a loan. If the dealer can give you a better rate, that's great. If not, go with the bank loan.
