Frequently Asked Questions
Why is TCO higher than my monthly payment × 60?+
Because you also pay for insurance, fuel, tires, service, and depreciation. Those non-loan costs often equal or exceed the loan itself.
Are these national averages?+
Defaults are rough national averages. Adjust each field to match your situation — insurance especially varies widely by state and driver history.
