Was wondering how people were able to finance the ADM markups? Surprised lenders would do that? Crazy monthly payments.


Yeah, that's just the MSRP, double that for the ADM cars...

I did $70K at 2% and I cringed at that...

Of course I did essentially that on three vehicles at once too... :(

ADM people don’t make payments on the ADM, they write the check.

Sure, I can see that being the case most of the time, but not always.

Or
Pay cash so there is no record the dealer ripped you off

I know some people have more money than they know what to do with and some have the best ever financial sense but that is not everyone...just sayin!

I financed my SS with a decent DP and EP and I know it's a toy but I have to ability to cover the extra. I pay approx $22k off the principle each year (not my actual payment) to get the balance paid off sooner. I also pay all my loans weekly, automatically through my CU which is so much easier and less worrisome.

I don't have an issue financing a toy as long as it doesn't affect your responsibilities and needs. Wife and I are getting ready for our 3rd vacation trip in 6 months so I think we're good with making a loan payment on a toy.

Of course just my .02 and I know some will disagree and think I'm a moron and maybe I am but I'm happy and don't care.

Hey, we used to lease everything because it was a direct expense.

Originally leased the Charger. I wanted 15K miles a year since it was going to be a daily. They kept telling me that Chrysler won't lease for that many miles but they did.

Yes they do, I leased all my wife's vehicle for that reason. She gets a new car every couple years and I don't have to mess with hers. I can't because I drive over 20,000+++ miles year just to get to work and home. I buy my vehicles and keep them until I just can't keep them going anymore! I just rebuilt the top end of my 2013 Ram 5.7l and did some cam, oiling, tuning and fuel, exhaust upgrades on it at 186,750 last fall and I am now at 203,800 this week, also did all new suspension and brake upgrades while I was at it. I have a bit of rust on the rear wheel opening so I found a new take off bed that is being painted to replace it as I don't want any rust on it, which is hard to keep up with in NW Ohio. Hope to get at least another 10 years out of it, minimum!

Oh, JYI, I bought this truck new in 2013 so all those miles are mine

They said they wouldn't lease a hellcat for 15K a year mileage. Never had any question before that.

You sure about that?
Which bank covers NADA plus 100k on their auto loans? The D170 is not special to a lender, not at all, it’s actually more risk than a Carolla.

I suppose there may be exceptions, but there would need to be tomfoolery at play.

I don't know of any bank that would cover an ADM unless it's covered by other collateral??
