Your down payment and monthly payment amount are just the beginning of the costs involved in owning a car. Maintenance, insurance, fuel, and other ongoing expenses can take up a substantial amount of your overall transportation budget. 
      
        For many individuals, the price of car they can afford is a function of the amount
        of the monthly payment. You can use this calculator to help determine how much you
        can afford to pay for a car based on your monthly payment amount, down payment,
        loan term, and available interest rate.
