Detailed Explanation for Chevrolet Shoppers in Greene County

What sets your rate: Your credit tier, loan-to-value, term length, and income stability carry the most weight. Experian’s Q2 2025 data pegs average new-car APR around 6.8 percent and used around 11.5 percent, so every fraction matters. 

Why preapproval first: Walking into Jimmy Britt with a credit-union or bank preapproval lets you negotiate price and financing separately. It also reveals the dealer’s best “buy rate” and prevents avoidable markup. Time your applications within the 14–45 day “rate-shopping window.” 

 

Avoid common traps: Don’t sign spot-delivery paperwork unless financing is final, and scrutinize add-ons and fees.
