A car affordability calculator determines the maximum car price you can afford based on your income, desired monthly payment, down payment, and loan terms. It prevents overextending on a vehicle purchase.

💡

Tip: Don't forget the total cost of ownership: insurance, fuel, maintenance, and registration can add $3,000–$8,000/year on top of the loan payment.

  1. 1Set a target monthly payment (ideally ≤15% of take-home pay)
  2. 2Work backward from payment to find maximum loan amount
  3. 3Add down payment and trade-in to get maximum purchase price
  4. 4Subtract taxes and fees to get the target vehicle price

Fun Fact

Dave Ramsey's rule: never spend more than half your annual income on all vehicles combined. On a $60,000 salary, all your cars should total no more than $30,000.
