[QUOTE="JoeRacer, post: 10696453, member: 85741"] Here is how it worked for me when I bought my truck: 1. Called bank, pre-approved for a loan up to $20k 2. Found truck from private seller, agreed upon price of $15k 3. Called bank, told them how much I was paying, the truck VIN, they overnighted me a cashier's check (made out to the seller) for $15k along with some paperwork for me to fill out and mail back with the title 4. Went back to the seller, gave him check, received truck + title 5. Mailed paperwork with title back to bank 6. Registered truck at DMV Now every bank might have a slightly different process, but this is basically how it should work. It was fairly painless. DO NOT FINANCE AT THE DEALERSHIP. You lose a lot of bargaining ability by doing this. If you walk in pre-approved for a loan through your own financier then you have the power. You can get a much better price this way, and you won't get screwed by the dealership on the financing. O ya, and pass on this car. It is way over-priced, and wasn't repaired properly. If you can tell the paint isn't original then it is crap and will probably be flaking off in a year or two. For that price I'd want lower miles, and no accident. Be patient, get pre-approved for loan, and shop around. [/QUOTE]
