How would you like the low monthly payments of a lease, but on a new or pre-owned vehicle AND without all the heavy restrictions and hidden costs of leasing?

Sounds impossible? It’s not — with First Northern’s Driving Sense™! 

Monthly payments up to 40% less than conventional financing

Like a lease, Driving Sense offers payments that are considerably lower than conventional financing. But unlike a lease, with Driving Sense you own the vehicle and have all of the flexibility and benefits of vehicle ownership! Other benefits include: 

  • Available on new or pre-owned vehicle purchases, or refinance your existing loan
  • Vehicles up to five years old qualify 
  • Flexible loan terms of up to 72 months  
  • Mileage options from 7,500 to 18,000/year
  • No down payment, no early payoff penalty, no security deposit and no acquisition fees 
  • Easily upgrade and/or change your vehicle every couple of years—or walk away at the end of your term! 
  • GAP coverage is included at no additional cost ($625 value)
  • A one-time program fee of $895 applies which can be paid upfront or financed into the loan1

You have four options to satisfy the final payment, as noted above. If you elect to return the vehicle you will have the following obligations: 1. All original equipment that came with the vehicle when you purchased it must still be with the vehicle. 2. If you exceed your mileage allowance, the excess mileage fee is $.10 per mile, and 3. The condition of the vehicle when returned must comply with the Loan Addendum provided to you at the time of loan disbursement. If you return the vehicle in accordance with the Loan Addendum, you will be charged a low $195 disposition fee and the residual amount is considered to have been fully satisfied and the loan is closed.
