Ford Financing Question
Looking at a new truck and was going to probably bring more than half the money to the table and probably finiance 25-30$k. My question is I just got a new job that doesn’t pay as much so my debt to income ratio is all wacked for the time being with my mortgages that are on my credit. Being that I’m putting more than half down does that matter ? I know my credit is super good, over 800.
Just wanted to see what guys have dealt with I’ve never finianced a new car.
Thank you

Similar Situation
I was in a similar situation as you only that I lost half my household income because wife stopped working. When I ordered my 19 I did a prequalifying offer through my bank (USAA) I have decent credit 780-800 depending on the who you check with, and they gave me a interest rate 2.99% Knowing the local credit union would beat it I ended up going with the credit union as the rate dropped to 2.29% Yes my credit took a little hit with multiple credit checks but when financing 30K that .7% made a substantial difference in the long run. Best bet would be do a local credit union Ford is willing to finance pretty much anyone as I have a subordinate with 500 credit score who just had to have a mustang at 17% interest.

Bought mine December 2016, 0% and 0.9% were available on new 2017s. I got no where near some of the deals you guys put on here but remember I bought a 2017 in December of 2016. It hadn’t even got to the dealer when I signed my deal. Even at that, what I got on trade of my 2005,what I got for extras thrown in, and all the incentives I got made a deal I could sign up for. I had 5 different truck deals written up at 4 dealers on 4different trucks to find what I wanted for what I wanted to pay. It pays to shop around.

I walked in a dealership on a Thursday morning (September of '17) and left that afternoon with a new truck. I had quit my job on Sept 1st and was not yet re-employed, my wife hasn't worked since we married in 2010.
Credit score was right at 800, two mortgages but no other debt with the exception of the monthly churn on credit cards (averages about $2K to cover travel and day to day expenses).
Ford Credit matched my bank's rate of 1.9% for 60 months. Traded my old truck ($12K) and put $5K of cash with it.
This past spring I walked into a Hyundai dealership at lunchtime on a Monday and left with a new Santa Fe for my wife. Traded her 2 year old Kia (paid off) and got 0% for 36 months via Hyundai Motor Finance for the difference. It was actually a better deal for us to use Hyundai's financing than out bank. The best terms were 48 months but we will likely pay it off in 24. The payment is less than $250.

I should be picking up my truck very shortly. It's at the rail yard waiting to get loaded on a truck so it may even arrive at the dealership today. I have been hoping that November would bring 0% financing on Super Duties. My current F150 is financed at 0% for 72 months. My credit score is 820 and I didn't put a penny down. Why tie up my cash when someone will let me use their's for nothing? Anyways, 0% on a Super Duty is probably just a dream. On this purchase, I intend to put down $20K cash. I will likely finance around $58,800 (not completely sure what the incentives will be starting tomorrow). At 2.58% for 66 months (through my credit union) the cost to finance will be $4,334. That is the best deal I've found. I hate the feeling that I am giving back my $3000 PCO and the $1500 under invoice that I negotiated.

I got it at the beginning of August and applied it to my order on 8/24. I have received a $2000 PCO since then but haven't seen or heard reports of a $3000 in that time frame..

And just to be clear, I'm spending only $72K on an $82K MSRP truck. Here in CA, they will get me for another $7,000 in sales tax and registration.
