Understanding APR

When financing a Wrangler SUV, Ram Truck, or Durango SUV, APR (Annual Percentage Rate) sets your loan’s cost. A lower APR means cheaper monthly payments. Sierra Motors helps Illinois buyers find competitive rates for used vehicles.

Trade-In Basics

A down payment decreases your loan amount for vehicles like the Pacifica Van, Grand Cherokee SUV, or Ram 1500 Classic. Trading in your current car can offset this cost. Sierra Motors offers competitive trade-in values to ease your financing.
