Yeah I was paying 15.99% on the truck I traded in for the EB. Granted, it was a 2013 model I financed through my bank so that probably wasn’t the best idea in the world but at the time I had the extra income so that was the only reason I got it to start with. I had a paid off 1/2 ton to start with and wanted a diesel to do more things with but that fell through fairly quick after buying so I had to make a decision on what was best for me now and do the best I can until things come around. I’ll likely keep this car a couple of years and probably refinance it or if something positive changes and I can afford to buy another diesel I will. If not, I will continue to enjoy the car and work my way up until I can get another diesel.Many have found themselves, for a variety of reasons both self-inflicted and not, in your shoes. I remember two divorces and many moons ago, I couldn't finance the steam off a hot dog. But time heals these wounds, and you'll eventually be back on your feet. Just be sure you learned your lesson (if self-inflicted), keep your bills paid, and your nose clean!
Oh, and honestly, don't think you're doing TOO bad: Other than incentivized rates like this, the best rates at many/most credit unions for top tier credit is between 6 and 7 percent for new auto loans.
