As we continue to deep-dive into our dealership spotlight series, we hope that the information in these blog posts are helpful whether you choose to do business with Easton Motors, or another company specializing in helping drivers with bad credit get transportation. At the end of the day, we hope to be a resource for you as you start (or continue) down the path of forming healthy financial habits.
And now, without further ado, let’s learn about Easton Motors of Portage!
Easton Motors of Portage is located in Portage, Wisconsin, and was established in December 2003. Formerly a Hardee’s restaurant, we’re in a prime location that’s easy to find on the north end of town. If you’re near Portage High School, Divine Savior Hospital, or the Portage Walmart, then you can probably see us from your car.
We typically serve the areas surrounding Portage including: Madison, Janesville, Beloit, Sun Prairie, Lodi, DeForest, Dalton, Endeavor, Pardeeville, Westfield, Montello, Stevens Point, Neshkoro and Oxford. Getting to us should be pretty easy for most folks as there are two exits from Interstate 39, and if you are travelling on Highway 51, you will pass right through the center of town on your way to us on the north end.
We prefer to set appointments for our customers to meet with one of our finance specialists, but of course, an appointment isn't necessary—walk-ins are always welcome!
To better prepare for your appointment, we ask that you provide proof of income, your WI Driver’s License, and contact information for eight personal references. Additionally, the more information you can provide about your current financial situation, the more we will be able to accurately fit your budget and find you the right vehicle for your own situation.
As with our sister locations, we don’t focus on the sale—we focus on you, the customer, and how to help you resuscitate your finances. Our ultimate goal is to put you into a reliable vehicle that fits your needs and your budget. Once you’re up and running in your new car, we also offer convenient automatic payments to match your pay schedule so you can have a stress-free loan with no worries about remembering when you need to make a payment.
Every experience is different for each customer as we aim to help each and every person who comes to us based on their own individual circumstances. For a more favorable approval, we ask our customers to bring in a down payment to help cover tax, title and license fees at the time of sale. You can read up on our finance process on our main website, or visit our Frequently Asked Questions page to discover more answers to popular questions about how we work.
