Find Your Dream Car and Auto Financing Options In One Place

This is a partnered post with Capital One.

Last year we bought a new car, and it happened in the midst of major home renovations. As a result, it was the first time I needed auto financing, and I didn’t know where to start when it came to finding the right car for my young family, or to learn about car financing. I sort of had to wing it and hope for the best.

Luckily we found the right vehicle for our changing family needs, and it has already taken us on three fabulous road trips, conquered some rough New York winter weather, and is spacious enough to store groceries, hockey gear, and extra friends in a third row. It was a major lifestyle upgrade over my old sedan and a good fit for my family, and now we actually have a vehicle that serves a busy, active family well.

We were lucky, because I don’t really like leaving things to chance, and really wanted to find a resource that would help me research my car options and my options for auto financing. I didn’t like feeling as though I was grasping at whatever was placed in front of me in hopes I was getting good information.

Time for an upgrade!

Now my husband is ready for a new car, an upgrade from his current sporty car to one that is roomier and more family-friendly too. He needs a vehicle that is ready to take us on lots more fun road trips and family adventures, and maybe offer some entertainment options for two kiddos in the back seat.

We are going to be to financing our new investment, and this time we have a little more time to research. We learned about Capital One’s Auto Navigator® site, a resource for everything from making it really easy to search local dealerships’ inventory for the make, model, and price that we want to finding out if we prequalify for auto financing.
