New Vehicle Loans |
As a service to our members, EPB Employees Credit Union provides
loans to purchase cars, trucks, motorcycles, boats, etc. Since
these loans are somewhat similar, the following description of
requirements and features will apply to most new vehicles (NV).
NV's are vehicles classified as "new" per the dealer's invoice.
Demonstrator models may qualify as "new" depending on actual
mileage/use. A vehicle can have up to 15,000 miles and still
qualify for a new car rate. A perfected title shall be required as security on
all vehicle loans. |

We recommend that you call or come by the Credit Union before
shopping for two reasons:
- The Credit Union has available The Original New Car
Cost Guide book that is published once every two
months by the Automobile Invoice Service (AIS). This book lists options
and costs of most all the new vehicles and may save you both time
and money.
- We can "pre-qualify" you. Then, you can just write a check
to the dealer and we will cover that check the next business
day!
