Choosing Your Vehicle
Choosing a Vehicle for Your First Auto Purchase
A first vehicle purchase is a good time to look at the complete cost of ownership rather than focusing only on the monthly payment.
Consider purchase price, insurance, estimated fuel costs, routine maintenance, vehicle condition, mileage, features, and how the vehicle fits your everyday transportation needs.
NeSmith Chevrolet GMC offers a changing selection of pre-owned cars, trucks, and SUVs across different makes, model years, mileage ranges, and price points.

Should a First-Time Buyer Have a Down Payment?
Down-payment requirements vary by applicant, vehicle, lender, and transaction. A lender may require a down payment depending on the details of the application.
A larger down payment can reduce the amount financed, but shoppers should review their complete financial situation rather than assuming a certain amount is required or guaranteed to change approval terms.
Application Options
What About a Co-Applicant?
Depending on the lender and individual circumstances, some first-time buyers may choose to apply with a qualified co-applicant.
A co-applicant is also financially responsible for the loan, so both people should understand the obligations before entering into a credit agreement. A co-applicant does not guarantee approval or a particular financing term.

Can a First-Time Buyer Finance a New Vehicle?

If you're considering a new Chevrolet or GMC, browse current inventory and compare the total purchase before determining which vehicle fits your budget.

Your Current Vehicle May Become Part of the Purchase
