“I dont wanna talk payment, just out the door totals”

Perfect, I dont blame you. Thats how everyone thinks they need to shop AND out the door total is important. IF you know what that means for your monthly budget.

Look, most people are not paying cash. They’re wanting to make sure that the car they’re buying fits within their monthly expenses. So if you have $0 to put down, no trade in equity and are can only afford $500 a month…. That vehicle priced at $44,990 will never get you there no matter how much you fight over the out the door total.

Are there people who will do you wrong? Yes - thats in every industry, not just cars. But find someone who you can trust, lay out what you’re trying to accomplish & work together towards the common goal.

Good morning. Kiddos got shots yesterday & decided that 3:30am was the new 6am. I mean wouldn’t train it for the world, but ALL three up in the middle of the night? It feels conspired.

3 things people get WRONG when buying a car 🚗

1️⃣ “I just want the cheapest car”
Sounds smart… but banks don’t like old/high-mile vehicles.
👉 Higher rates
👉 Shorter terms
👉 No warranty options
= You end up paying MORE long term.

2️⃣ “I don’t need a co-signer”
If you’ve never financed before, lenders see you as a risk.
👉 Higher interest
👉 Bigger down payment
A strong co-signer can save you thousands.

3️⃣ Showing up stressed & overwhelmed
You’ve looked at 15 cars, don’t trust anyone… I get it.
But this should be exciting.
👉 Find a salesperson you trust
👉 Find the right fit
👉 Enjoy the process

The right deal + the right person = a completely different experience.

Is every scenario the same? Of course not. But at the end of the day, theres 3 scenarios that require a down payment:
1) You’re too upside down in your current loan to move on to another loan without cash down.
2) Your credit isn’t very good and the banks dont want to give you all of the money.
3) you found the exact vehicle you want, but you want to pay a lower note.

*Every $5,000 you finance is roughly $100/ month - same goes for down payment*
