LAWRENCE, MA – Should you buy or lease your next vehicle? Is it better to go with a new or pre-owned car? Merrimack Valley Credit Union’s Car Buying and Savings Guide gives consumers the information they need to make those decisions and more.
The new eBook, available online at www.ilovemvcu.com/CarGuide, includes advice on steps to take in the buying process, negotiating the most affordable price on a new or used car, and saving on car financing. One chapter of the Car Buying and Savings Guide separates the myths from the truths about tempting 0% financing offers and explains why overlooking other options might end up costing car buyers more money in the long run.
“Credit unions such as Merrimack Valley are a terrific resource for consumers looking to buy a new vehicle,” said Michael Shuman, Vice President of Lending at Merrimack. “We offer low-interest auto loans and service for our customers that they won’t get from a car dealership, where they might encounter hidden fees and other costs.”
