Looking around their site, it appears they're thin with local stores and are online oriented. Then I checked online review sites and they approve deals almost instantly based on applicants representations alone, including price paid (read between the lines for potential benefits). It also looks like there's qualifying guidelines that can be met with a small charitable contribution.

Sadly can't do the online option, as I nor my father are comfortable with that. But tomorrow we are trying a few banks etc. I drove it today and the more I get in them the more I fall in love with them!!!

Tell them you'll sign a waiver if needed.
This is what i did. Also they hadn't drilled it in by the time i got to the car so I went so far as to even remove the bracket from the trunk before I even started making the deal. While I was signing the papers i told them if they drill the license plate bracket in they would be buying the car back.

Guys/Gals at dealerships don't communicate to each other.....at all, even if your salesman tells you he told someone not to drill, they will,...they are professional liars. Cars are offloaded from the truck in the middle of the night sometimes and sent to the back lot. The robots who do the general prep are going through the motions and don't ask questions. You need to have your salesman meet the truck and affix a sign to the bumper to not drill for the standard plastic crap dealership plate frame as they usually do , or they will drill it.

Exactly, thankfully Justin put like warning tape on the sign so said robots didn't do such a thing!

Also noticed some were drilled into the bumper and others were into the lower grill? Weird
