When you are approved for a car loan the lender typically will set the maximum monthly payment for which the loan is approved. Generally, the maximum payment is either 12% to 18% of your gross monthly income or 45% of you income less your monthly obligations.

Auto finance companies may also take into consideration other vehicle costs such as insuring the vehicle, maintaining the vehicle, and fueling the vehicle. If the used car that you want to purchase has an affordable monthly payments but high insurance, maintenance, and fuel cost, the lender may determine that you cannot afford such a vehicle.

It's no secret that people with a bad credit rating will pay a higher interest rate when compared to people with a great credit rating. If you have bad credit, instead of trying to buy the car of your dreams focus on a used car that is affordable until your credit rating improves.

In addition to buying a modest used car, we recommend that people with poor Fico scores finance their purchase for no longer than 48 months. A shorter car loan term makes it much easier to trade out of the used car when your Fico score improves.

When you owe more on your used car trade in than it is worth you should think about buying a lower priced new car with money back incentives. The excess amount that you owe when compared to the used car value will be added on to the new loan. A money back incentive will lower the amount you will have to ad to the new car loan and by focusing on less expensive cars with payments you can afford you may be able to pay the car off quicker and avoid adding addition money on the next car you trade in.

"Often, being upside down in your trade is like a snow ball rolling down a hill, it keeps getting bigger every time you purchase until one day it gets to the bottom of the hill. If you continue buy new cars when you are upside down in your trade, sooner or later the process will stop, and you will hear, "I am sorry, the bank won't finance that amount on this car, you will need to make up the difference in cash."
