All opinions and cautions aside (which I mostly agree with), yes, she can be named on the title but not on the registration. We (married) recently bought a used truck. When we signed over the title only my wife put her name down. I ended up registering it. It’s now registered in just my name, while the title is just in hers. Maybe an oversight by the kid at the licensing office, but here we are. And since we’re legally married, it doesn’t matter too much since all of our property is shared according to WA State.

BECU has always been a ret option

Navy Fed is the best.

We also had a good experience with BECU with an auto loan. I think it probably helped that we already banked with them, so in addition to the dealership connection they had it was super-easy to set up automatic payments. That said, it’s been a few years (that loan is long paid off) and as our general banking institution we’re not 100% happy with them. Too much to go into detail here, but basically we feel they project that they’re as competent as big banks in tech and customer service knowledge, but that’s not the case. We like they’re a CU, so still with them now, but casually looking at alternatives. Anyway, if they can offer a competitive interest rate, I would still say go for it.

Wait a few months

Yeah I also disagree. It was a few years ago, and our final loan was about that, but when we got pre-approved to see how much we could borrow, they were prepared to let us borrow more than twice that amount.

I like Twinstar

I love becu!

If you are ex military there is Navy Federal...

I just did a 46k loan with them for a new car, so don't think that's accurate.

That’s untrue. That might be an issue with your credit history or income

How about interest rates guys. Which credit union has the lowest interest rates you've seen?

Fishing 🎣Westport has charters it was about $160 a person when I did it guessing its $250 now but totally worth it ! Took my father in law and it was a blast and a lifetime type memory.

If you’re shopping in WA, BECU is probably already in a relationship with the dealership and will be on the menu of options presented by the finance manager. They’re the largest credit union in the state for auto loans by a big margin.

Yes she can

If the age of the vehicle is an issue, maybe look up SnoCope? The place I bought my 2006 Toyota went through them, good rate and no issues.

The car lot people said that SnoCope was one of the few who will finance older cars, don't know if that's true though.

BECU is the best. They even work with dealers to make it super easy.

Though GESA doesn't have a Bellingham branch, they would be my recommendation. I've had an account of some sort with them nearly my entire life and never had a problem.

Source? My auto loan with them was right about there, but I have freinds who I believe have larger loans.
