Selecting the Right Auto Loan Options
Let’s face it. Buying a car can be stressful, and with so much to consider, you’ll want to choose wisely. Whether you’re buying a used car, something brand-new off the lot, or it’s your first time behind the wheel, White River Credit Union has various auto loan options to help you put the pedal to the metal this summer. (Without burning too much rubber!)
The Pros and Cons of Buying New or Used Cars
Are you thinking of buying a new car? The good news is you’ll probably pay cheaper interest rates with a shiny new ride. To further attract customers to buy new rather than used, dealers may offer incentives like cash, rebates, or a low financing rate.
Unlike a used car, your loan period will likely be longer, and the total amount borrowed will be more significant. Consideration should also be given to depreciation because every year, the value of a car decreases. You don’t want to end up making payments for more than the car is worth.
On the other hand, a used automobile won’t come with all the flashy accessories that a new car will, and the car will have had previous owners. But if you get a loan for a used automobile, the total cost will be less, and the loan’s terms will be shorter as the car continues to lose value annually. Additionally, a wider variety of credit types are more accessible for used automobile loans.
