Serving Olds Drivers
Olds is home to Olds College — a 5,000-student agricultural and trades institution that shapes the entire character of this Mountain View County seat. Students in automotive, agri-business, and horticulture programs know vehicles, and many need their first one. Beyond the college, Olds has a strong commercial core serving surrounding rural communities. There is no used car dealership in town, which means students, staff, and families all have to leave when they need a vehicle. We bridge that gap with first-time buyer programs, student-friendly financing, and free delivery at 75km.
Distance from Airdrie: 75km (65 minutes drive)

Olds Car Buying FAQs
Do you have a first-time buyer program for Olds College students?
Yes. First-time buyers are one of our most common customer profiles. We work with lenders who specifically approve buyers with no credit history — the kind of file a student typically has. In many cases no co-signer is required. Apply online and we will walk you through the options.
I am an Olds College student with no credit. Can I get approved?
Absolutely. A thin credit file — or no file at all — is not a dealbreaker with the lenders we work with. We look at your income (part-time, full-time, or student funding), your down payment ability, and your overall situation. Many students drive away approved.
Is there a used car lot in Olds?
No, Olds does not have a traditional used car dealership. The nearest options are in Red Deer to the north or Airdrie to the south. We serve Olds actively and offer free delivery so you do not have to make the drive.
Can Olds College staff and faculty get the same financing options as students?
Yes — and typically with more options. Salaried employees and faculty qualify for a broader range of lenders. If you have established employment at Olds College, approval is usually straightforward even with past credit issues.
What is your free delivery radius — does Olds qualify?
Olds is about 75km from our Airdrie lot, which falls well within our free delivery zone. We deliver to your door, handle all the paperwork on-site, and typically get it done within one business day of approval.
Do you have vehicles that work for rural property and farm acreages near Olds?
Yes. Many Olds-area buyers are on acreages or working agricultural land. We stock trucks and AWD SUVs suited for gravel roads, towing, and year-round Alberta weather. Tell us what you need and we will match you to the right vehicle.
