One of the biggest concerns for many car buyers is whether their credit score will prevent them from getting approved for a loan. We are here to tell you that it does not have to. Our finance department has extensive experience working with individuals from all walks of life and a wide range of credit backgrounds. We firmly believe in second chances and fresh starts.
Our strong relationships with local and national lending institutions allow us to advocate on your behalf to secure the best possible terms. If you have been turned down elsewhere or are worried about a low credit score, we encourage you to speak with us.

The first step is often the easiest; you can see where you stand without any obligation by filling out our secure pre-qualification form online.
A fantastic way to improve your financing terms and lower your monthly payments is to trade in your current vehicle. The value of your trade-in acts as a significant down payment, which reduces the total amount you need to finance. This can lead to a lower interest rate and a more manageable payment plan. Our appraisal process is simple, transparent, and designed to get you a competitive, fair market value for your car, truck, or SUV. You can get an initial estimate of your vehicle's worth in minutes using our online Value My Trade tool. This gives you a clear idea of your budget and purchasing power before you even visit our dealership.
Financing is just one part of the equation. The vehicle you choose is paramount. We maintain a carefully curated inventory of pre-owned SUVs to meet the diverse needs of East Lyme drivers. Every vehicle on our lot undergoes a thorough inspection to ensure it meets our high standards for safety, quality, and reliability. Whether you are looking for a fuel-efficient compact SUV, a rugged off-road capable model, or a luxurious three-row family hauler, our selection is sure to have something for you. We invite you to find a vehicle in our online inventory and schedule a test drive to experience it firsthand.

Absolutely. We specialize in helping customers with various credit histories, including those with bad credit or no credit. Our finance team works with a network of lenders to find viable loan solutions. We believe past financial challenges should not prevent you from securing reliable transportation. We encourage you to apply and let our experts work on your behalf.
While requirements can vary slightly, you will typically need a valid driver's license, proof of income (such as recent pay stubs), proof of residence (like a utility bill), and proof of auto insurance. Having these documents ready can help expedite the financing process once you have chosen your vehicle.
Trading in your current vehicle provides a down payment towards your used SUV purchase. This reduces the principal loan amount, which can result in lower monthly payments and potentially a more favorable interest rate. It is an excellent way to make your new vehicle even more affordable.
Pre-qualification is an initial step that gives you an estimate of how much you might be able to borrow based on a soft credit inquiry, which does not affect your credit score. Pre-approval is a more formal process where a lender commits to loaning you a specific amount at a certain interest rate, pending a final vehicle selection and a hard credit inquiry.
The timeline can vary, but our goal is to make it as quick and efficient as possible. Completing our online finance application beforehand can significantly speed things up. In many cases, we can secure loan approval and complete all the paperwork in just a few hours, allowing you to drive home in your new SUV the very same day.
