Which credit union is best for a car loan?

Both my friends and family have told me that I can get the best car loan rate at a credit union. The problem is that credit unions are everywhere. What’s the best credit union for a car loan?

No right or wrong answer exists for the best credit union for a
car loan
. Generally, the credit union that gives you the best rate is the best option for a car loan. However, you have to meet basic membership eligibility requirements to get a car loan at a credit union.
Credit unions use a variety of factors to determine eligibility, including:
  • Geographic location
  • Certain employers
  • Family member of a credit union member
  • Military or other types of organizations
  • Membership in a particular group (church, labor union, etc.)
If you qualify for one of these groups, you can probably get a better car loan rate than you’d find at a bank or third-party lender. But the only way to make sure is to shop around. And while you’re doing so, you may as well do the same for your
