Income guideline
The widely used 20/4/10 rule suggests 20% down, a loan of no more than four years, and a car payment under 10% of gross monthly income. Keeping $1,403 a month under that line means a gross income of about $168,319 a year. Insurance, fuel, and maintenance often add as much again, so many buyers aim lower.
The amount financed is the price after your down payment and trade-in, plus any sales tax and fees you roll into the loan. To see what sales tax adds in your state, use the full auto loan calculator or its state pages.
