Why it worked

The video likely resonated due to its relatable scenario of car buying challenges, particularly the common issue of credit score impacting financing. The direct and honest conversation about financial limitations, presented in a conversational tone, creates an engaging and informative narrative for viewers interested in car sales or personal finance.

Summary

A car salesman discusses financing options with a couple who drove three hours to purchase a vehicle. Despite their credit challenges and a desired payment that doesn't align with their credit score, they are exploring options for a down payment and financing the rest. The salesman ultimately determines that the lowest possible payment would be $450 over 66 months, which is still too high for the couple's budget.

1Introduction of the couple and their situation

Original caption

They drove three hours without confirming the car was available or getting preapproved. Then we sat down and found out the payment they wanted didn’t match what their credit could realistically get them. Do you think they should’ve gotten approved before making the drive? #carsales #sales #cardealer #dealership #pov
