$ 219.60 for 60 payments. I've already made 35 payments and I have 25 payments to go.

I'm perfectly happy with my 2003 Ranger XLT and plan on keeping it for a long time after it's paid for. The original plan was to make payments for 5 years and then drive it with no payments for another 5 years, so far I'm right on track.

My payment is 153 at a 5.4% APR (but I pay $200 to get it paid off in 4 years, 2 to go). I put $2k down, $9,800 I think was the sale price

If she cant afford it in five years maybe look at a less expensive vehicle. She is going to be making payments on a truck will have probably already died by the time her loan is up.

I paid for half of mine with cash, and then wrote a check for the other half. Its nice that way. No payments, or worrying about how you are going to make the next payment. I know its hard, but I believe in not buying something (small like a truck) unless you have the cash to buy it.

I'd like to refinace now that my credit score has gone up (about 70 points). I'd like to refinance to get my payment payment lower possibly. But im more concerned about getting my interest rate lower and getting my co-signers name off of the truck.

So how does it work? Ive been paying on the truck for a year and a half now never missed a payment. What happens when you refinance, you basically extend your payments another year. Is it pretty much like getting a new loan on the truck? someone please explain
It is like pretty much going to a different bank and getting a new loan. Go to any other bank (can't use the one you have the loan exsisting with) and tell them you want to refinance your auto loan. They'll give you a quote and if you want to accept it they will send the bank that the loan is currently with a check and you just have to pay the state to transfer the lien holder on the title. Thats pretty much it.

The Ranger was paid for in cash.

But I decided to finance the F250 for 5 years since I was able to get a 5% interest rate. So now I pay $495 every month for my 2009 F250. It's not too bad making payments, especially when you auto-draft from your account.
