WFS Financial Inc. has introduced a "60 Day Float" program for dealers purchasing WFS vehicles at auction.

Through an exclusive arrangement with Manheim and ADESA, the program aims at assisting dealers "float" funds prior to obtaining financing. The program was piloted at Manheim's Cade, and ADESA, LA auctions and due to enthusiastic response, will be expanded across the country at select Manheim and ADESA auctions.

To qualify, dealers must be an approved A.F.C. or M.A.F.S. dealer and be in good standing with WFS.
