When Keith Martin answered his cell phone sitting in his office at work, he never imagined that he’d be the latest TFCU Great Auto Loan Payoff winner.
With the call came the news that TFCU was going to pay off his $13,603 loan on a Ford-150 truck; he said he called his wife immediately.
“I have to be honest with you, I kind of welled up and had tears in my eyes,” Keith said. “It was emotional, I should say.”
Keith opened his first TFCU account more than 40 years ago as a child when his father wanted him to learn how to budget and manage his money.He said that TFCU has always been supportive in his financial journey.
“Over the years, I’ve literally grown with TFCU – from first savings and checking accounts to a credit card and lines of credit,” Keith said. “I’ve had all of my auto loans with Tinker. They’ve always made it fast and convenient.”
In addition to working in civil engineer design, Keith uses his truck for doing real estate repair work and golfing for fun. “I’ve always been an SUV guy,” Keith said. “This is the first truck I’ve ever had. I’ve fallen in love with the truck concept.”
Keith prefers to get pre-approved for his TFCU auto loan before he goes and shops for a new vehicle. Along the way he’s also learned, “As long as you have a loan through Tinker Federal Credit Union – a car loan, truck loan, any type of loan in regards to automobiles – you’re entered to win The TFCU Great Auto Loan Payoff.”
