Although it may not seem like it for all of us, Spring is finally beginning to make its rounds in some parts. As the snow and ice begins to melt away, you'll find that prices on auto sales will melt down too; especially around the holidays. Mardi Gras, St. Patty's Day, Easter, Mother's and Father's Day, the list goes on and on of all the excellent opportunities that the Spring and Summer present to prospective car buyers. At Auto Credit Express, we know how important it is to get a great deal on your purchase. That's why we help you find the best dealers in your local area that will help you no matter what your credit may look like.

Budget
Take the time now to thoroughly look over your current budget; and if you don't have one set, now is a great time to get that started. Find out what you are able to spend each month on all the expenses a car will have including: loan payment, gas, maintenance and insurance costs.

Down Payment
