OUCU Financial Tractor Loan FAQs
What kinds of equipment can I buy with a tractor loan?
Despite the name, tractor loans actually refer to any loan taken out to buy farming equipment. That means you can use our loans to buy everything from implements and processing equipment to, well, tractors.
Do tractor loans have fixed or variable interest rates?
Our tractor loans always have fixed interest rates. Unlike a credit card or line of credit, your interest rate will stay the same for the life of the loan, so you will always know what your monthly payment will be and when your loan will be paid off.
How do tractor loans compare to personal loans or lines of credit for financing farm equipment?
Unlike personal loans and lines of credit, which are unsecured, tractor loans use the purchased equipment as collateral to guarantee the loan. That allows us to offer lower rates and more flexible financing.
What documents do I need to finalize my loan?
For private sales, you'll need a signed purchase agreement from the seller. For dealership purchases, have the dealer send us a copy of the agreement.
How do I calculate my loan payments?
You can use our online loan calculator to estimate your monthly payments based on loan terms and amount.
