so im trying to get a newer truck cuz riding my crotch rocket everyday is getting old and i cant carry anything on it. basically what i want to do is instead of getting an auto loan and have to pay full coverage on a car plus sr22 i want to just get a personal loan and pay cash for the truck. does anyone have any experience doing this and if so what are your interest rates like. lookin for around 8,000

You'll have to have TITS credit in order to get an unsecured loan nowadays. Credit unions are your only chance, the bigger banks will not give out a personal loan like that.

You are better off getting an auto loan. Personal loan interest rates are much higher in general that that of an auto loan. Which eventually will cost you more in the long run. Also in order to obtain a loan for 8k the business is going to want collateral property to put a lien on. The only way around that is to have perfect credit and an extremely low debt to income ratio. Which includes all possible open lines of credit you could use, even if the balances are low or paid off. As Yaterstang said you will be extremely hard pressed to obtain an unsecured loan.

What I have seen done is opening a credit card with an 8k or more limit and just purchasing the car by pulling money from that. However you need bomb ass credit, low debt to income, and a nice monthly income to obtain that kind of balance.

Good luck tho

Crap they are chargin 13-14 percent. Im sure if your credit is good enough to qualify for that, you'd be better off just getting a car loan. Full coverage insurance is never a bad idea anyways.

You might not have enough trade lines, trade lines are lines of credit that are required by the bank to determine how you can handle multiple credit accounts. They usually want to see you with 2-3 trade lines before giving out a personal loan like that otherwise they will decline you for lack of credit history. Paying that bullshit SR22 is part of owning up and handling your shit. You know you need a truck or some sort of vehicle here before the rain starts coming again, sell me your bike and you might have enough for a truck! Watcha got?

Buy a bucket.... I got a DUI/ wet and reckless when I was 21.... Your insurance will be off the hook for at least 2 years. That said, buy a bucket and don't pay hella money for insurance.

Personal loans always have a much higher interest rate than auto loans. Check out a credit union and see if you can get a line of credit. My ex bought a car on a credit line and the interest was only 7%-ish.
