Understanding Auto Loans
- The larger your down payment, the lower your monthly payments
- Shorter loan terms usually mean higher payments but less total interest
- Your credit score significantly impacts your interest rate
- Trade-in value reduces the amount you need to finance
- Consider total cost, not just monthly payments
Smart Car Buying Tips
- Aim for a 20% down payment to avoid being "underwater" on your loan
- Shop for financing before visiting dealerships
- Consider pre-owned vehicles to avoid heavy depreciation
- Factor in insurance costs to your monthly budget
- Check your credit score before applying for loans
