Skid Steer financing for Montana operators.
Trust Alliance Capital is a 22-year-old commercial equipment finance company. When your bank or the dealership's finance company declines your equipment loan, we have the program that fits. We give you options.
A real person answers the phone. In about three minutes you'll know if we can help.
Why Montana operators choose us
Most skid steer buyers in Montana run into the same wall: the dealership's finance company turns them down for one reason — time in business, credit profile, age of equipment, prior BK. The bank takes weeks and asks for paperwork that isn't relevant. The deal dies on a technicality, not because the customer can't afford the equipment.
That's our business. We've spent 22 years building programs for the deals other lenders can't fit. Across every credit tier. Strong credit usually gets zero down. Lower credit usually gets a higher down payment. We're flexible enough to handle every scenario.
No one bank beats our flexibility.

Who we fund in Montana
- Strong-credit operators who want the convenience of an equipment-finance specialist instead of bank paperwork. App-only, mostly phone and email.
- Established businesses scaling fleets that need fast underwriting without bank back-and-forth.
- First-time buyers who can't get past a dealer's finance company on time-in-business or down-payment requirements.
- Operators with prior BK, slow pay, or thin file who need a finance company that will work the deal, not auto-decline.
- Buyers of used equipment outside dealer finance age and hours limits.
- Operators who want one financing relationship across many dealers — TAC carries with you. Get approved once, work with any vendor in Montana.
What this looks like in practice
A Billings-area oilfield services owner-op financing a used CAT 259D compact track loader for well-pad grading and access-road maintenance called us after the dealer's finance company declined his application. Three minutes on the phone and we'd identified the program that fit his file. We told him exactly what to expect — what to send, what the down payment range would look like, when he'd have an answer back.
Closed inside a week. Equipment delivered. Operator back to work.
It's rare we send anyone away without an option.
