Shopping for a new Ram, Jeep, Dodge or Chrysler in central Minnesota and wondering how much you need to put down?

At Jay Malone Motors in Hutchinson, MN, we work with all credit levels and multiple lenders. Watch our video and know your numbers before you shop.

Still owe on your car? You can still sell it in Minnesota. There is a lien on the title, so the loan is paid off and the lien released before a clear title changes hands. Minnesota runs an Electronic Lien and Title system, so the lender clears the lien electronically once your payoff is met. A dealer sale keeps it simple: Jay Malone Motors pulls your payoff from the lender and closes the loan and sale together. Any make and model, no purchase required. Call (320) 587-4748.
