KNOW YOUR BUDGET

Start your car-buying journey by sitting down and looking at your income. Take a look at your budget, or create one, and see how much you can afford for a monthly payment. Make sure to consider how much your car insurance will cost and be sure to save a little extra for future maintenance.

GET PREAPPROVED

Walk into the dealership knowing exactly how much you can afford when you get preapproved. At GECU, you can apply in person, by phone, or online and purchase your vehicle at a dealership. You can get preapproved for a GECU Auto Loan* by visiting gecu.com or calling 778.9221, toll-free at 1.800.772.4328. See the list of some local dealerships below.

RESEARCH, RESEARCH, RESEARCH

Before you even set foot inside a dealership, make sure to do your research. Use the internet to your advantage by looking up the different makes, models and features that are essential to your lifestyle.

FIND THE PERFECT VEHICLE

After you’ve done all of that research, you’re ready to walk into the dealership with confidence. Once you find the car that is right for you, make sure that you feel comfortable with the payment, and don’t hesitate to ask for GECU financing. This is a big purchase and you should drive off the lot feeling like you made the best choice.

FINALIZE YOUR PURCHASE

In the finance office, you’ll have the opportunity to discuss the rate and term of your loan as well as your monthly payment. Whether you are financing a new or used vehicle, most dealerships will give you the opportunity to purchase additional products to protect your new vehicle. These may include GAP insurance, extended service agreements, and credit life and disability just to name a few. Be sure to discuss these options with your finance representative to see what options work best for your lifestyle.
