FFDS Announces 4-Tier GAP Pricing Approach
Jacksonville, Fla. - Family First Dealer Services LLC (FFDS) has released the industry’s first four-tier “4T” Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) Program.
The FFDS 4T GAP Program’s new 73-76 month term band provides considerable savings compared to the industry standard 72-84 month term band. The FFDS 4T GAP Program gives FFDS’ partners another way to build value and stand out above others in the industry today.
“At FFDS we believe in spotting unique trends and responding to market changes quickly. Over the past year, we have seen financing shift to the 73-76 month range. By introducing our 4T GAP Program, we prove once again that there is no better company in the industry to partner with when it comes to GAP,” said Tony Wanderon CEO of FFDS.
“As auto-lending continues to evolve, the emergence of the 75-month loan term has solidified. From an Agent or Dealer’s perspective: Why pay for 84-months of GAP coverage when the loan term is 75?” said Zack Matta, Director of Product for FFDS.
