In many cases, you can drive home the same day or within 24 hours of financing approval-it's one of the best parts of buying a car! Once your loan is approved, paperwork is signed, and your vehicle is ready, you're on the road.

Timeline depends on factors like lender approval speed, paperwork completion, and title processing. Our Finance Department works efficiently to get you into your new vehicle as quickly as possible while ensuring everything is done right.
