Unexepected need for Auto Loan

I just closed on a new house Friday.

 

Was about to apply for a new Barclay card and a Venture card.

 

Today, unexpectedly, our Van died.  Now, I need to get an Auto Loan.

 

How will the new mortgage and 2 new credit cards affect the auto loan?

 

Very low utilization on my other credit cards.

 It's not utilzation that will be the issue, its DTI...

new mortgage will probably get you approved easily for the car loan!

How would the new mortgage make it more likely to be approved?

 

I thought that would hinder my ability to get approved.

I've done refi to auto loan in about two days, and again about four months apart. Didn't run into a single issue.
