Ford 100 Hour Sale Offers 0% for 72 Months

[Branden]

I just saw a commercial, Ford is offering 0% for 72 months on it's "most popular vehicles", in a 100 hour sale ending September 30th. Funny how they let GM take a beating in the media for a week over the 72 hour sale, then at the last minute, launch a longer sale offering the same thing.

7 years. What's next 8, 9, 10, 15? Do we have to follow Fannie Mae and FHA rules. LOL. :lol:

Does any one know what the is the best financing you can get from Toyota or Nissan? Have they ever offered 0%?

Besides the fact that cars are so expensive that it takes that long of a loan to get payments low, who cares how long the term is if its interest free. I would take a 15yr interest free loan any time.

Exactly. A healthy North American industry needs both GM and Ford. Besides, that new Mustang...is growing on me. 72 months interest free is only that long if you choose it to be. I believe you can pay off the principal early without penalty? We were offered that deal on our latest purchase, but we paid cash and took the other incentive.

Er... 72 months is six years, not seven.

I was thinking the same thing!

We have used 84 month\7 years quite often here. The key is if your customer NEEDS a vehicle like say 3/4 ton diesel to tow his trailer but cannot afford $1000/month payments.

I am always up front explaining that they must own the vehicle for a mininum of 1/2 of the term of the load before they will be able to see any light on balance owing verse vehicle value.
