Chrissy Metz Teams Up with Capital One Auto Navigator
Metz shares her journey in hopes of helping people realize that buying a car can be easier with the right tool
Buying a car is a big life moment - up there with buying a home or having a baby. Oftentimes, big life moments are also big financial moments, which call for some preparation and research. There are a lot of things to consider when shopping for your wheels.
At Capital One, we wanted to design a tool that makes it easier for people to buy their next car. That’s why we created Capital One Auto Navigator.
With Capital One Auto Navigator, people can search online to find their perfect car, and see what fits their budget by pre-qualifying for financing with no impact to their credit score.
The tool allows people to search from millions of cars nationwide, and then, once they pre-qualify for financing, they can see their real rate and monthly payment before visiting the dealership. Making it the easy way to find a car that fits them and their finances.
Recently, Capital One teamed up with award-winning actress and singer Chrissy Metz to share her personal story and relationship with cars.
Read on for a glimpse into her car-buying journey.
By Chrissy Metz:
Everyone who knows me well knows that getting my first new car — no, realizing I could afford a new car — was a major milestone for me. And let me tell you, the road to becoming a car owner wasn’t paved for me, no pun intended.
When I decided to pack up my life and move to LA, I left Florida without a plan and not much money. All I had was a dream and my car. I wasn’t going to give up on my dream and lucky for me, my car didn’t give up on me (trust me, it could have — I put a lot of miles on that car and it changed my perspective on what having a car really means).
Looking back, that feeling, that car, all of it means so much to me. I even wrote a song about it.
I know that for many, myself included, buying a car is personal, and it’s so worth it. But it shouldn’t be hard. A car isn't just a means of transportation, it also offers freedom and flexibility. That’s why I’m excited to partner with Capital One Auto Navigator to share my journey and help people realize that buying a car can be easier with the right tool.
