If someone wanted our HEA right now (or any car with an allocation) then we would pull credits and get them locked in at 5.58. If you don't want to get locked in now (or can't because you don't have an allocation like myself) then you are subject to whatever the rates are when your car or allocation gets here.
I’m glad I got locked in, no markup, with the hike yesterday it’s only going up in the short term. I don’t see rates coming down anytime soon. I know car notes are tied to the Treasury and not the Fed but in practically it’s the same damn thing.
