View Full Version : US Miles Loretta 08-02-2008, 11:10 PM http://www.usmiles.com/index.html Has anyone here used them to get car financing? I know a friend of ours did and had a great experience, but I want to hear what others have to say... TIA :) rcwant2be 08-02-2008, 11:15 PM nope. i'd be leery of getting financing from anyone other that a reputable bank or credit union, especially in today's financial climate. KatReborn 08-03-2008, 12:48 AM DH told me about them, he said he heard they they were good but a lot of dealers involved anymore :( Loretta 08-03-2008, 01:49 AM nope. i'd be leery of getting financing from anyone other that a reputable bank or credit union, especially in today's financial climate. They work withthe lenders to get you the best rate...they aren't a lender themselves. Sorry, should have clarified. Their "about us" section pretty much lays it out, though :) DH told me about them, he said he heard they they were good but a lot of dealers involved anymore :( There are 15 listed in the Fayetteville area alone...I'm sure with the economy being how it is a lot have bailed, but this area still looks good so far.

I hope you find a place cause Ken said the interest rates were good there. rcwant2be 08-03-2008, 01:43 PM They work withthe lenders to get you the best rate...they aren't a lender themselves. Sorry, should have clarified. Their "about us" section pretty much lays it out, though :) oh. so then do they charge you some kinda fee or something? i'm not clear on how they make their money if they're just a 3rd party setting you up with financing. however it works, i'd still be leery about it. Loretta 08-03-2008, 01:45 PM They are not for profit I believe. They only work with military folks. Like I said, my friend went through them(no credit at all) and left with a great car....their standards are geat, too(used vehicles must have less than 60k miles, payments must be less than X amount, etc) but that is literally the only person I know who has used them...so I'm curious. I've done the whole buy a car thing before, so I'm not ignorant to the process...if anything seems fishy I'll walk away. :tu |
