i'm dealing with wheaton financial right now. seem really good to work with. they're looking for $3400 down on a $27k truck and payments will be around 737 a month. i dont think its terrible for a first truck purchase.

I would see what the payment would be at 16% and how much it would be for lets say 10%. On short loans it's not that much a difference. It's always best not to leave yourself cash poor. If you get rolling and making money you can always pay it off early. In the meantime, you have cash on hand for problems.

Most people pay a much higher interest rate for their first truck. They consider you a higher risk, even with good credit, if you have never financed a truck. I prefer paying cash. If you go ahead with buying for cash I would make a commitment to replace your cash as quickly as possible. It will save you a lot of money in interest when you pay cash.
