I usually use State Farm Bank but I believe there are probably better interest rates out there.

What ever you do, do not use the dealer. Get your own loan. Dealers can add to the interest rate to get a higher kick back. We purchased a new camper a couple years ago and got the loan through the dealer at like 4%. Purchased our T23 4 months later and got our loan through the same credit union at 2.99%. While we were in there we asked about the interest rate on our camper and the loan officer pulled it up and told us they approved us at 2.79% for the camper. She then told us that dealers do that all the time to make more $$ off the loan kick back. So we refinanced the camper that day as well.

This depends on the dealer, my dealer got me a better rate then I could find on my own.

I find it best to get a good rate from your CU and offer the dealer a chance at beating it.. worse case they are happy you let them take a shot and you get a good rate.

Just did the same thing getting my new tow rig. CU came in at 2.5%. Dealer came in with a US bank offer at 2%. Worthwhile for sure to let them earn your money.

Second allowing the dealer to take a shot... I did the same thing with my CU offer; dealer beat it by 1 point.
