What price fits my payment?

Start from the payment you're comfortable with and see the vehicle price it supports, the amount financed and the total interest.

The short answer

Answer

A $650 monthly payment at 7.5% APR for 72 months finances about $37,600. Add $3,000 down and an $8,000 trade, take out 5.5% sales tax and about $427 in fees, and it supports a vehicle price of roughly $46,100.

Change one input at a time: a shorter term lowers total interest but supports a lower price. Your actual APR depends on the lender and your credit; the CFPB says rate shopping within a short window (generally 14–45 days) usually counts as one credit inquiry.

What price fits my payment?

Works backward from a monthly payment to an estimated vehicle price. Not a credit offer: the APR you qualify for depends on the lender and your credit.

—amount you can finance
—estimated vehicle price that fits
—total interest over the term
—total of payments

Questions

Is this a credit offer?

No. It's arithmetic. Your rate depends on the lender and your credit.

Why does the term matter so much?

A longer term lowers the payment but raises the total interest, and can leave you owing more than the vehicle is worth for longer.
