Pentagon FCU Gold Card Approval

Well, it turns out that my gardening ability is akin to the plastic flower section at Hobby Lobby!  Wife wanted to replace her 2020 Infiniti QX60 with a 2023 Range Rover Discovery so I joined Pen Fed, I tried hard to resist applying for a card, but ultimately lost out to my inner demons.  At any rate, picked up the gold card with a $3500 SL.  Ended up doing the auto loan through Navy, but still have the preappoval with Pen Fed, maybe a new Q60 Red Sport for me?

Re: Pentagon FCU Gold Card Approval

Whats the point of getting a brand new car ? Not saying not too but other than lifestyle inflation, i dont think it would do any good if their is nothing wrong with your current vehicles.

Congratulations on the approval, OP!

 

Also, for the love of all things holy, please don't finance a new Q60RS. You will be upside down in that vehicle in the blink of an eye, since they tend to lose value (mod cut-not here pls) I mean, your money, but I wouldn't.

Re: Pentagon FCU Gold Card Approval

@SmileNWave I would never be upside down, have 20K in equity in my 21 Explorer and would probably put 10K on top if I did buy the Q60 Redsport.  I traded the wifes 2020 QX50 for what I paid for it a year and a half ago, traded a 19 Q50 Luxe for my explorer a year ago for what I paid for it.  The used car market is insane right now.

 

@Mdowning30 The point of buying a new car in my case is 2 fold, #1 my wife wanted it, and I like to spoil her, and #2  I can!
