Six Financing Readiness Factors
- Credit Score — Most commercial lenders want 600+ for used trucks; stronger scores open more options
- Down Payment — 10–20% is common; more reduces monthly payments and interest paid
- Time in Business — Startups face more scrutiny; 2+ years helps significantly
- Truck Age and Condition — Older or high-mileage trucks are harder to finance
- Documentation — Tax returns, bank statements, business license, and financials
- Lender Fit — Equipment lenders differ from banks; matching the right lender to your profile matters
