How much money down do I need on my auto loan?
Down payment requirements vary based on your credit history, the vehicle you choose, and your loan terms. Some buyers qualify with little or no money down, while others may benefit from a larger payment upfront to reduce interest and monthly costs. Our team will walk you through the options.
How does a car loan impact your credit?
A car loan can help build or rebuild your credit if you make on-time payments. Each payment gets reported to credit bureaus, giving you the opportunity to improve your score over time. Consistency is key—and we’ll help you set up terms that make staying on track easier.
What is the minimum credit score for a car loan?
There’s no universal minimum, but many lenders consider scores starting around 580. At Castle, we work with lenders who consider a variety of factors—not just your credit score—so buyers with scores below 600 or limited credit history still have options.
Can I buy a Chevrolet truck with bad credit?
Yes! Our inventory includes new and pre-owned Chevrolet trucks like the Silverado 1500 and Colorado, and many of our customers finance them with less-than-perfect credit. We’ll help you find a payment plan that works—no matter your score.
