As fas as roadloans there have been many horror stories on that particular lender.

Yes I belong to a local credit union but roadloans said they can get me financed without a dp but who knows what the interest rate could be

No DP with them? That's a bad sign right there and i am sure your rates would be through the roof. I would work on your credit and talk with your local CU

Check out the Capital One auto navigator preapproval. That is a much better bet than RoadLoans.

Apples to Oranges. A home is an appreciating asset that can be foreclosed on and sold, making the company whole.

 

Generally speaking an auto loan that is repossed on is never going to make them whole until they sue you for the balance.

 

The risk goes up, the underwriting standards go up, the price goes up I'm afraid.

And mortgage lenders don't need to try to find the house to foreclose, cars are much easier to hide from the repossessor.
