Lowest rate I could get on the used 21 I just bought was 7.49% through Ford Credit(used rates are generally higher). My credit union had the same rate which is crazy to me because they have always been a few percent lower. For the ease of purchase I just opted to go through Ford, if the rates drop I will likely refinance it. Me and my wife’s credit scores are both 800+

the dealer here who has been historically sane with pricing .. ie msrp or slightly under except Rs. Has now , too late i feel, joined the list of gougers. Thedy have been giving me very good trade in value over the years , once i paid just the difference in msrp. I went in to look at trading my 22 37 for a 23 37. Difference in msrp is 7,000. Mine has 40,000 miles. They wanted 43,000 tax in. I laughed and said nope.... They asked what id be ok with , i said half that. Im still in my 22.....

Yea they are out of their mind. Mine has an ongoing electrical issue that they seem incapable of fixing and I used to trade up about ever 2 years. Not this time. *** that

The car market is suffering right now. Interest rates are killing sales and placing that ‘want to have’ vehicle just out of reach for a lot of us. So if we don’t need it, we’re keeping our money. Right now, if you drop a trade off, they’re going to have a hard time selling it, with used vehicle interest rates .5 - 1 point higher. It’s not C*vid anymore, it’s just blowback from stupid C*vid policies.
