how much should I look to get approved for and for what rate?
Penfed.com's best rate and the most you want to spend.

This is all assuming I cannot finance through the dealership for 0%
9 times out of 10, 0% financing excludes you from better deals when "paying with cash" (external financing). Go to Will Cover's buying guide

I'll check out penfed.
Regarding the specifics of acquiring the loan and purchasing the car, do they cut a check prior to us going to the dealership to negotiate? Or do I get pre-approved, agree on a price with the dealer, and then when I'm taken to the financing department I tell them that I have to physically leave and return with two checks... one from me and one from the bank/penfed/CU?
Reference this from The Will Cover thread:
