New Truck Advice
Posted on 12/31/19 at 7:14 pm

Looking to buy a new truck for the first time in 12 years. I generally keep vehicles a long time.
My question is - since I plan to keep the truck long term - is it better to put as much money down as I can?
For the record. I was always told growing up to never put any money down.
Thoughts?

Depends on the interest rate you can get. If you can get a low (sub 3) interest rate, best to invest your money and pay the note.

IMO, it depends on the interest rate, length of loan, what can you afford, etc.

Will shop and check then. Just wasn’t sure if I should walk In with a standard 12-15 percent down payment ready.
I will watch the rate. Thanks.

Pay cash if you can. Money in the bank is not making interest and interest is no longer tax deductible.
