    Hello,

    I see a bunch of information on various companies posted who finance new drivers / do purchase-lease agreements. However I don't see any posts on any banks or credit unions that do commercial truck loans. Can anyone share the following? -

    1. Banks / Credit unions that you used for New truck purchases
    2. What were the interest rates that you secured for your deal
    3. Did you apply as personal or business

    Thank You

    Good luck, financing is a minefield in this industry. If you are interested in Business bank products and customer reviews I recommend checking out myfico.com forums.

    It honestly is. I didn’t believe them so I inquired just to verify.

    If I remember correctly there’s a limit in what they’ll buy. Suncoast won’t buy some crazy 400-thousand peterbilt classic.

    they buy a cascadia, pro star, 579, etc…

    Thanks all for a reply - just following up and wanted to bump the thread. Suncoast & First Citizens although good recommendations, unfortunately only work with companies in their state. If anyone else has any other bank or credit union they've worked with - would appreciate any information you can share.

    Thank You
