As an active-duty servicemember of the US Armed Forces, you have distinct advantages over the civilian populace when it comes to buying a new car, truck, SUV, or motorcycle. 

Many lenders regard auto loans for military personnel as low-risk.  Why?  Because of two primary factors intrinsic to a military career:  job security and stability of income.  Given the rockiness of our nation’s current economy, lenders are more worried about car buyers being laid off and defaulting on their loans, thereby costing them money.  Members of the military, however, are some of the least likely of all citizens to lose their jobs.  For this reason, you may find yourself at an advantage when it comes to financing the vehicle you want at a rate you can afford.
