Frequently Asked Questions
What is the 20/4/10 rule?
Financial experts recommend putting 20% down, financing for no more than 4 years, and keeping total car expenses under 10% of your gross monthly income.
Should I include my trade-in?
Yes! A trade-in acts exactly like cash down payment. It reduces the amount you need to borrow, saving you sales tax (in most states) and interest.
