Beyond competitive rates, we offer flexible repayment terms.

New vs. Used: Find Your Perfect Loan Match

The type of vehicle you choose – new or used – can influence your loan options. Lake Michigan Credit Union provides distinct financing paths tailored to each. For new vehicles, you might qualify for slightly lower interest rates due to the vehicle's higher resale value and lower risk profile. Loan terms can also be longer, spreading out payments.

When financing a used vehicle, our loans are designed to account for factors like the vehicle's age and mileage. While rates might be slightly higher than new car loans, LMCU still offers very competitive options. It's important to consider the vehicle's history; a well-maintained used car can be an excellent value. We encourage members to check vehicle history reports from sources like Carfax before purchasing a used vehicle.

Ultimately, whether you choose new or used, Lake Michigan Credit Union is committed to finding you the best possible financing. Our loan officers will discuss the specifics of your chosen vehicle and help you understand how different factors, such as down payment and credit score, impact your final loan terms.
