Your hometown bank, since 1911.
Three local offices. A place to ask your questions in person.
Before you buy
Look beyond
the sticker price.
A little preparation can make the conversation about your next car more useful.
Bring the vehicle details
Have the asking price, model year, mileage and seller information ready. Ask the bank which vehicles and purchase types it can finance.
Include the extras
Allow for sales tax, title and registration, insurance and potential repairs. Enter any costs you plan to finance in the calculator’s additional-cost fields.
Compare more than the payment
A longer term can lower a monthly payment while increasing total interest. Ask about the rate, fees, total cost and available terms before deciding.
Before you take the next step
A few good
questions to ask.
Use the estimate as a starting point.
A conversation fills in the details.
Can the bank finance an older car or a private-party purchase?
Vehicle eligibility and seller requirements need to be confirmed with the bank. Call with the vehicle’s model year, mileage, price and seller details before making a financing decision.
How does the calculator handle a trade-in?
Open the trade-in and additional-cost fields. Enter the estimated trade-in value and any amount still owed on it separately. The calculator subtracts the value and adds the payoff to the estimated amount borrowed. This does not mean the bank will finance an existing balance.
Does this include every cost of owning the car?
No. The payment estimate includes principal and interest, plus only the additional costs you choose to enter as financed. Insurance, maintenance, fuel and other ongoing costs are not included.
Is this a loan quote or a credit application?
No. The estimate uses your inputs, not an approved bank rate. Nothing is submitted and no credit check is performed. Ask the bank about loan availability, current terms and how to apply.
