In addition to the 120 days to first payment finance option, DTF has several vocational-specific finance alternatives and custom finance packages including retail loans, seasonal and skip payments, multiple lease options and flexible payment terms.
“We know that customers in the construction segment have different business cycles and credit requirements. We will work together with our team at Daimler Trucks North America to provide financing solutions that fit their needs,” said Tobias Waldeck, head of Daimler Truck Financial.
According to David Carson, senior vice president, vocational sales and marketing, Daimler Trucks North America, through collaboration with Daimler Truck Financial, the OEM can more easily offer these ways of supporting customers in the construction industry. “Whether before buying, during the purchase process, or to keep our customers up and running – we are here for them.”
