Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT Extended Cab 2WD 0% for 60- Month Dealer Financing 3.9% for 60-Month Credit Union Financing Vehicle Price $31,615 Down Payment $2,000 Consumer Cash $0$4,500 Invest in America Discount $1,672 Loan Amount $27,943$23,443 Monthly Payment $466$426 Total Savings From Financing at Your Credit Union: $2,400 Help your members do the math! Dealer financing offers are generally in lieu of consumer cash incentives The table to the right, from CUNA’s daily rate comparison from 1/24/12 (http://www.creditunion.coop/ratedex.php), has the average CU rate for a 60 month new car loan at 3.44%http://www.creditunion.coop/ratedex.php The Silverado example, at right, shows your members can either get 0% for 60 financing or a consumer cash incentive of $4,500. By using the consumer cash incentive combined with credit union financing (in this case at 3.5%) your members save $40 each month or $2,400 over the life of the loan Additionally, research conducted by GM, shows credit union members value the Credit Union Member Discount above other incentives such as $1,000 gas cards, $500 bonus cash and a free two year satellite radio subscription Combining the ability to overcome low rate dealer financing with the value members put on the Credit Union Member Discount, and you have a very powerful offer Your challenge is to get in front of your members and help them do the math before they visit a dealer
