Ford Removes Minimum FICO Score Requirements For 84 Month Loans
Yes, those pesky FICO scores determining who does and who doesn't have the means to pay or a history of paying bills will finally no longer have leverage over the broke, spend-heavy U.S. consumer.
Ford sent a bulletin to dealers this week announcing they would be removing the requirement, CarsDirect wrote.
Our proprietary scoring models do an excellent job of assessing the probability that an applicant will be able to pay. FICO is one input. Eliminating the separate FICO requirement opens the prospect of financing to more customers who would qualify for 84-month financing within our models regardless of their FICO score," Ford Credit spokesperson Margaret Mellott told CarsDirect.
84 month loans routinely have higher interest rates than most other loans. CarsDirect points out that a current 6.9% rate on a 2022 Ford Bronco Sport would make the vehicle, listed at $40,000, actually cost $50,000.
It’s fookin clown world boyos. Survival mode

Current depreciation on a car is a lot slower these days than before, so their risk is less. They don't care if they end up with the car back.
You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.

Also, watch for competitors to follow suit.

If you can't do the math to figure out when you get to 200k,which is about the life of most cars
Sure there are plenty of exceptions but thats the number I use
Would you even know or care about your fico ?
7 years is 30k a year ,that's lease mileage lol
Ford needs to give sh away cuz that's what they are sh
They'll get a bailout and the rest of us will suffer
2008 is coming again
So.pepper your escort

If I was selling cars I'd be heading to work for a Ford dealer ASAP. Tons of people will buy thinking "yay low payment and I can get it with bad credit." You can make a fortune off of stupid people.

When I was at CDJR dealership, they would go 96 months and also give rebates if your credit score was below 620.

I used to do finance for a bad credit place.
We would only go 72 months
But MOST of the poorcells that did not pay bills would get 72 month loans at 20% interest
99% of the vehicles were under 20k.
18k loan x 72 at 20% was just over 30k (most defaulted of course)
