I went to a bank (don't want to say which one, but it's a well-known nationwide bank) and was approved for a car loan. The car that I want as of now is being sold by a independent, Mom-and-Pop dealership, which the loan officer says means I will have to buy the car upfront and then be reimbursed. I have the money to do it, but I didn't want to put such a dent in my savings account. Is this a common practice, or am I being "taken for a ride" Also, if this is common, what is the reasoning?
