| If your buying a new Trailer, the seller usually has a bank they
make arrangements through that will work with them.
My loan is through Bank One this way.
If you were buying a used trailer, you're usually on your own (personal
loan, whatever). Rates vary each year, but through the trailer
companys bank, the rate was a couple points lower than a personal loan
through DCU.

| I bought my new trailer this past June. When I
was shopping around, several dealers offered
financing on their own. I don't really remember
what rates they offered as I wasnt' looking
for financing, but I think they were pretty
comparable with a DCU personal loan.
One thing that surprised me when I was
searching was that while most dealers would
accept trade ins, none would even look at
my old trailer because it was *too* old. It
was a 1975 - in very, very good condition,
but they were afraid they'd never move something
that age. I had originally planned to simply
trade it in, but ended up having to sell it
private sale. Just something you might want
to keep in mind if you have an older trade in -
it certainly came to me as a surprise.
