If you’re thinking about buying a new car, you might be wondering if financing is right for you. There are plenty of great reasons to consider getting car financing directly from your official Ford dealer. Here are just a few of the many benefits you’ll find.
1. Know You’re Getting the Best Rates
Before you get financing for your car, it’s important to do some research first. Knowing where the best place to get your car loan from will ensure that you have the best experience.
Your dealership is prepared to offer you the best rates and incentives for your car loan. If you want to ensure that your monthly payments are affordable and that the entire process is smooth and simple, visit your dealer’s financing department.

2. Afford a Better Car
Thinking of buying your car in cash? While this might seem like a good idea, know that you’re going to have to make some big compromises. You may not be able to purchase the vehicle that you’ve spent so long thinking about. Instead, you might have to go with a cheaper model with fewer features than you’d like.
This is another great reason to get financing. Since you’ll only be putting down a portion of the car’s total cost as a down payment, you can splurge a little more and get a vehicle you’re really going to love driving.
3. Maintain Your Savings
When you run into emergencies or when you need to make major purchases, your savings account is there for you. But if you’re paying for your car in cash, then you’re going to have to take quite a bit of money out of your savings account.
Instead, consider getting financing and putting down only an initial down payment before paying your car off in increments. This will allow you to keep building your savings for other purchases you might need to make in the future.
4. You’ll Build Your Credit Score
A high credit score makes it easier to get things like mortgages, loans, and even jobs in some situations. If you have a low score or even just an average one and you want to boost it, a car loan can help.
That’s because car loans are easy for almost anyone to get. By paying your monthly payments on time, you’ll show potential lenders that you can be trusted with their money.
If you’re looking to purchase a new vehicle, financing is a great way to set yourself up for financial success while also affording a high-quality car. Are you ready to learn more about our financing options? Get in touch with us at Medford Motors.
