No credit card required

Thanks Scarlet,
We've been with USAA for 3 years, never really looked at anything but banking,and all our insurance (car insurance can't be beat anywhere else.)
I will research their cards, thanks for the recs.
Checked on the auto loan today, they asked us if we are approved would we want to check mailed or picked up at a local credit union. I don't want to get my hopes up too soon. Its been 6 days since we applied, figured we would have an answer by now. They also said they verified income but the number I created in The Work Number still shows as unused. On, this is so nerve wracking!

We were approved for the car loan!! Yah!!!!!!! DH is going to pick up the check right now downtown. Plus we managed to talk the price down on the truck we are buying (a Land Rover!) which means an even lower monthly payment. I am so happy I could do a dance around the neighborhood!
CONGRATS!
Hi. You may want to go ahead and try for the soft pull after you check you EQ score. My starting limit was 10K 6 months ago. A couple of days ago, I decided to ask for an increase to offset any potential CLDs. I asked for 5K (since you have to ask for something). They came back with 10K and raised me to 20K. It stopped at the soft pull with an EQ at 702 and positive payment history.
Good luck

USAA (if you are eligable) does have rewards cards (choice of points or cash - I took points) and gave me a better rate by 2% than NFCU. The limits aren't as high on each card but still generous (10K vs 14K).
When speaking with NFCU last week - the rep told me that at 13 months there is automatic review for a rate decrease - and at 12 months a CL review. One is eligable after 6 months but it is a hard if it goes to committee and their is no way to stop the process (I personlly did not want to risk another INQ - so I declined) and he was somewhat 'surprised' by my starting limits and thought it would be declined.

My Cash Rewards was issued at 6.3% over prime (approved today) at $25k CL

Congratulations txjohn! Good for you!!
The Cash Rewards APR is Flex, not Fix like nRewards. So there is no such as " NFCU's Cash Rewards is issued at a 1% higher rate than their Platinum card"
