Titan Truck Sales is a used truck dealer on the south side of Oklahoma City that specializes in financing buyers who cannot qualify through traditional lenders, making it a resource for customers with poor credit or minimal down payments rather than a conventional lot.
Titan operates as an independent used truck dealership focused on used models in the light to mid-duty range. The lot carries domestic and import trucks, typically model years 2010 and newer, with inventory rotating through seasonal demand. The core distinction from larger regional chains is the in-house financing structure: Titan finances deals directly instead of brokering loans through banks or credit unions, which allows approval for buyers with credit scores below 600 or with recent repossession or bankruptcy on their record. This model keeps margins tight but captures a market segment that drives away from traditional dealerships after credit denial.
Pricing on trucks ranges from roughly $8,000 for higher-mileage models with 100,000+ miles to $22,000 for newer or lower-mileage stock, with most inventory clustering between $12,000 and $18,000. In-house financing typically carries interest rates between 12% and 21% depending on credit profile and down payment size; these rates are substantially higher than bank rates (which range from 4% to 9% for prime borrowers) but reflect the dealer's risk on subprime buyers. Down payment minimums are usually $1,500 to $2,500, lower than the $3,000 to $5,000 standard at larger used lots. Weekly payment plans run $150 to $250 depending on vehicle price and term length. Because interest rates and down payment terms can shift with inventory and lender appetite, confirm current figures before visiting.
All vehicles include a basic warranty covering major powertrain components for 30 days, with no option to extend; this is narrower than the 90-day warranties offered by some larger Oklahoma City used dealers like Norco Auto Group, which also accept trade-ins and offer more flexible financing partnerships.
Titan's primary competitor in the subprime financing space is Super Wheels, also south Oklahoma City, which carries used trucks and SUVs with similar rate structures and down payment floors. Both dealers target the same credit-challenged buyer, but Titan holds inventory closer to 50 trucks while Super Wheels typically has 20 to 30, giving Titan more selection if you are flexible on model. Super Wheels uses a third-party financing broker rather than in-house lending, which can mean a longer approval window but sometimes more competitive final rates if the broker negotiates hard.
For buyers with acceptable credit (620+), Sanderson Ford or Stinnett Automotive in Oklahoma City offer certified pre-owned trucks with 5-year/60,000-mile warranties and bank-backed financing at rates 6 to 10 points lower; these lots carry newer inventory and target a higher-income buyer. If your credit sits between poor and fair (560 to 619), Titan is faster and more transparent than applying at a traditional bank but less predictable than a credit union like Tinker Federal, which requires membership but will work with members down to a 500 score.
Choose Titan if your credit bars you from conventional financing and you need a truck in the next week; choose a franchised dealer if you can wait for certification and prefer a longer warranty; choose a credit union if you are a member and have time for underwriting.
Titan suits buyers who have recent credit damage, no credit history, or insufficient income documentation for traditional lending. Buyers who have been turned down elsewhere often find approval here within a day. It also works for buyers who need a work truck immediately and want to avoid the sales-pressure environment at larger lots.
Titan does not suit buyers who need extended warranty coverage, who want a warranty on the transmission or suspension, or who have the credit profile to qualify for bank financing at single-digit rates. It also does not work well for buyers who plan to keep a truck beyond 5 to 7 years and cannot absorb repair costs, since vehicles at this price point often require brake work, suspension refresh, or electrical repair within 18 months of purchase.
Walk the lot without pressure to speak to a salesperson; Titan's inventory is displayed openly and priced on windshields. When you find a truck, request a walk-around and test drive immediately. Bring a pre-purchase inspection from your own mechanic (a $120 to $180 service at any local shop) before committing; this step is especially important at Titan because the 30-day warranty is narrow and you absorb risk fast.
The financing conversation happens in the office and involves review of your recent pay stubs, ID, and proof of residence. Approval typically takes 24 to 48 hours pending soft pull of your credit. Have a down payment ready; Titan accepts cash, debit, or certified check but typically not credit cards. The entire process from selection to keys usually spans 2 to 3 days.
Titan Truck Sales operates Monday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Sunday 12 p.m. to 5 p.m.; verify Sunday hours by phone as seasonal adjustments occur. The lot is unshaded and open-air; bring sunscreen if you plan to spend more than 30 minutes reviewing vehicles. Parking is available directly on the lot. The facility is cash-only for down payments during weekend hours, so plan accordingly.
Titan fills a real gap for Oklahoma City buyers locked out of conventional lending, offering speed and direct approval where banks decline. For buyers with poor credit and pressing truck need, it beats waiting weeks for a credit union decision or shopping dealer to dealer for a subprime broker.
