Congrats!  Nice truck you're looking at too.  And there are some great deals going on the 2014 models, almost 11K off in some cases.

The rate is actually lower for 60 or 72 mths but I wanted a lower monthly pmt which is why I opted for the 84 mth term. I dont plan on stretching the loan that far though. WIll double up on the payments whenever possible.

DO NOT DO 84 MONTH TERMS!!!! If you need to do an 84 month term to lower your payments, you clearly can not afford the car. Maybe look at something used, or have chevy run your credit and try to get 0% over 6 years

Re: NAVY FCU Auto Loan Approval Yay!

I hate even 60 months, but I normally just do 60 months and then pay more towards the monthly payment (which goes towards principle)
