2 New motorcycle or auto loan-to-value (LTV) is based upon the MSRP and is defined as a vehicle that has not been titled. Auto loan LTV is based upon NADA retail value. 125% LTV on auto loans only offered on loan terms up to 60 months. For terms longer than 60 months, the max LTV is 100%.
3 A deferral of up to 90 days for your first payment may be available on certain vehicle loans, as determined by the credit union. Deferring a payment will delay the payoff of your loan, and result in additional finance charges if you only make minimum payments. You need to make up the deferred payments. If the credit union agrees to a deferral, additional restrictions may apply.
4 Skipping a payment will delay the payoff of your loan, and result in additional finance charges if you only make minimum payments. You need to make up the payment skipped. Auto loan skip-a-pay program is subject to change at any time; restrictions apply. Complete the Payment Vacation form to enroll.

Your “Pre-Approved Express Draft” is void after 30 days and can only be used at a Franchised Dealership for the purchase of new or used automobiles or trucks only (RV’s, motorcycles, boats and unsecured/personal loans are excluded). The “Pre-Approved Express Draft” is not valid for sales between private parties, lease buyouts, auctions or to purchase reconditioned or salvaged vehicles.
