WE MAKE IT WORK
We’ve helped thousands of first time car buyers, who never thought they could get an auto loan, finance the car they want.

YOU PICK YOUR CAR
With financing in hand, our sales pros will help you choose the perfect new or pre-owned vehicle you have always wanted!

WATCH YOUR CREDIT IMPROVE
Positive credit activity, like making regular payments on your vehicle, can help your credit score.
BUILDING UP YOUR CREDIT
Both lease and finance contracts are available. With a TFS finance or lease contract, you can start building your credit history. Just meet the following criteria:*
Credit Line
A FICO score of 610 or above. No 90 day past due or more accounts, charge-offs, collections, reposessions or foreclosures in your credit history.
References
Three personal and verifiable references.
Employment
Verifiable proof of a full-time job, which you’ve held for at least six months.
Sufficient Income
Your income must be enough to cover ordinary living expenses and vehicle payments, and be consistent and verifiable. Your monthly payment may not exceed a certain percentage of your gross monthly income.
Minimum Down Payment
Minimum down payment is 10% of MSRP or the agreed upon value of the vehicle, whichever is less (excludes any rebates or dealer incentives).
