MISCELLANEOUS COMMENTARY: I have just begun the trek of credit repair. I have been a cash consumer for 20 years. I received my first credit card, an AMEX, in 2 decades only 14 days ago. There are a few derogs in my history, but with no active tradelines those derogs destroy my scores. I settled for this rate because Capital One was the ONLY lender that made a decent offer (rightfully so) as my EQ and TU scores are in the toilet at 555 and <500 respectively. I was ecstatic at the prospect of 6.22%, and 8.06% seems very fair for my specific situation.

Came back and said I got you approved for 4% but you have to put down the $600.00, We gratefully accepted the offer. - Battled intensely with dealership over trade in value as well as pricing on vehicle options. Had Ford dealership work out a purchase order and give me $2k over trade in offer from Chevy dealership. We prevailed in the end. Traded in upside down 2017 Equinox LT for $15,500 owed $24,623, net trade was -$9,123.

MISCELLANEOUS COMMENTARY:
This was a few weeks ago in October. I have a limited credit history (< 6 months) and only 2 credit cards at the time of application. I also only had Experian reporting a credit score (but none with TU or EQ). Before purchasing my car, I prequalified on CapitalOne Auto (8.5 - 10%) and DCU approved up to $25k @ 7.49% for 65 months. Went to Mazda dealership and had them also run my credit to see what they could get me. Was denied by multiple banks (Wells Fargo, Keybank, Chase, Ally Financial, TD Auto, M&T bank) for limited credit history, no previous instalment loans, and/or no credit score, however Toyota Financial Services* approved me for 60 months @ 5.99%, so I took it (I plan to refinance later). Since I plan to keep the car for a long time, I decided to extend the bumper-to-bumper warranty (3yrs/36k vs 7yrs/100k), especially since I'm not familar with Mazdas or their reliability (I've only had Hondas).
*Note - the Mazda dealership I went to had access to TFS through their other fleet of dealerships.

MISCELLANEOUS COMMENTARY: 15 years ago my wife and I had about 10 credit cards with a CL of over 100K. We took a hard look at what were doing and spending just on monthly payments. Most of the cards were like yo-yo's. Pay if off, take a vacation, pay it off, max it out again. So we went cash only and paid off almost 80K in CC's in two years and canceled them all. Our credit scores at that time were in the high 700's. The only debts we have had after are cars and a mortgage. Anyway two months ago my wife's Armada started having issues with the rear axle and the transfer case. Several thousand to fix. So I figured we would buy something new and checked our credit scores prior to looking for financing. TU and EQ had us at 506. Found a few errors with our mortgage and an old account that was falsely reporting a charge off. Got those taken care of and our scores went up to around 600. Applied with our credit union and was told 17%. Prequalified with Capital One on the Subaru at 7.09%. Credit union said they would match it. Went to the dealership and worked out a deal, called our loan guy and told him the amount. He put the money in our checking account and I wrote them a check. In and out in two hours. By the way I called Capital One and they said that their Prequalification is actually a Preapproval but they are required to call it a PreQual.
