Toro Card Through Citibak

Klbb — Fri, 24 Aug 2018 14:24:17 GMT

Anyone know anything about the Toro card through CitiBank? I am looking to finance a new lawn mower, but am apprehensive about using a credit card for this. I originally tried through Sheffield at the dealer and was turned down due to inquiries (my husband and I shopped around for our mortgage). I would really prefer to go with an installment option, but the CitiBank card is the only other option the dealer is offering.

Suggestions or advice is greatly appreciated!

If you are shopping for a mortgage i dont think its wise to be looking to add credit at the moment. Do you have Lowes or HD?

We actually closed on our new home yesterday. We waited to do anything credit related until we closed. We are planning to open a Lowe’s account as well, but need to purchase a larger piece of equipment than Lowe’s offers.

Ok, understood. Big congrats on new home

Is the lawnmower needed huge?

Thanks! Yes, we now have 5 1/2 acres. We need a commercial grade mower.

Any John Deere nearby? I understand they offer financing.

2nd the John Deere suggestion
They are not inquiry sensitive and do not report
