The car you WANT ≠ always the car you can comfortably AFFORD. 👀💰
A big mistake car shoppers make is starting with:
“How much will my monthly payment be?”
Instead, look at the bigger picture:
💵 Purchase price
📈 APR / interest rate
🗓️ Loan term
💰 Down payment
🧾 Taxes & fees
⛽ Insurance + fuel
🔧 Maintenance
Because the real question isn’t just:
“Can I get approved?”
It’s:
“Can I comfortably afford the entire cost of owning it?”
That G-Wagon might have you saying “I NEED IT.” 😂
Your budget might have other plans.
👇 Be honest: when car shopping, do you set your budget FIRST or find the car FIRST?
