(14,449 posts)Finance with them. My case was unbelievable. I walked into Toyota to but a new car in August 2011. I received prefinancing from my credit union in the form of a check to a certain amount. I went about looking for a car. Found one I liked. The dealer came up and asked if he could help. I said yes and we go into the whole process of negotiating the car with both of us satisfied with the price. They send me to the finance department where the person said ok now here is what your payments are going to be. I pull out my draft from the bank and say I am paying cash. They said, no your not you are paying with a preloan and now I have to call your bank for a code. It was really snotty. If I didn't want the car so badly, I would have left. Anyway it was worse then I am even explaining, but glad it was over. Car dealerships hate pre approvals in my experience.
