harley loan
when i talked to the dealer they wouldnt finance me cause i couldnt make as big a down payment as they wanted and i have little credit history. i have a credit card i dont use that much. they said harley has had a lot of bad debts lately, people defaulting on there loans so now there being more careful about who they finance. anyway they suggested i talk to the bank so i did and the manager said yes they will give me the loan. warned me that if i screw it up i will have real credit problems in the future. ill make the purchase probably this weekend. ill do my best not to screw this up

RE: harley loan
Anyone can get financed through Harley. If you have 10% down you are fine. I filed bankruptcy 1.5 years ago and I got financed even with a new car loan. You will pay 14.9% but just pay it off faster.

RE: harley loan
Mind if I ask how old you are? If you didn't get to talk to the finance personnel at the dealership, you got pushed out. But as drrandall1 said, 10% down will get you in the door most days.

RE: harley loan
Better than no Harley. That is the price you pay with bad credit. I had A+ credit 2 years ago. But when Bush passed the law I joined the club. Even paying 14.9% for $18,000is still better than paying off $8
