| Q: What type of equipment does ORFAC finance? |
| |
| A: ORFAC will finance new and used tractors or trailers typically less than eight years old.
Additionally, ORFAC can refinance any existing tractor or trailer loans with other banks and lenders.
|
| |
| Q: How long can I finance the equipment? |
| |
| A: The term of the loan depends upon the age of the equipment.
The longest term is 60 months for new or one-year-old equipment.
We do not offer leases or balloon payment options. All loans have a fixed rate for the term of the loan.

| Q: Will you refinance balloon payments due on a lease? |

| A: Yes. In the past, balloon payments and lease buyouts were a popular form of vehicle financing. When those obligations come due and need to be paid off we can help ease the burden by offering refinancing options. |
