Buying a used car, best source for financing? (beehaw.org)

My family needs a second car. I'm thinking about a used Chevy Bolt or Nissan Leaf so I think the cost will be about $20,000.

What's a good source for financing? I was thinking about getting a loan from my bank, Chase. But I see there are also lenders that specialize in car loans, and there might be dealership options? My credit score is over 700.

This is the way to go. Find the car you want online first, secure financing from a local CU second (shop around), and then go to the dealership third. Don't walk in without the financing or they'll give you some BS high rate even with excellent credit.
