Are dealers still in a finance pinch? Do clients need payday loans in the F&I office??

Taking a poll... Do F&I offices need a product like this?

Were currently testing the default vs approval rate for qualified clients in need of $1000 or less for a short term loan. Not the typical client for our model, however we are interested in diversifying.

Take a look and e-mail me with comments and questions.

The customers like it, but it is impractical in some situations. With the sub prime market still very tight on advances, we sometimes pass on deals that make, lets say $900- 1500 total simply because it does not make sense to hold a check that can be as much as half the gross. If the customer defaults on the check, we are left with very little in the deal. I am wondering though, when the bank does the interview how can we be sure the customer does not violate the loan terms by telling the interviewer that the down payment is on a short term note. That would be a concern for me. We actually had to unwind a deal a few weeks ago when the customer told the bankthat we agreed to hold the down payment check for 2 weeks. What are everyone's thoughts on that aspect of this?
