Long Term or Short Term Auto Loan?
Generally speaking, if you can afford it, it's better to get a shorter term loan. Your payments will be higher, but your interest rate will be lower. More importantly, you'll have your car or truck paid off sooner.
That said, a longer term loan will result in lower monthly payments. You might want to choose this option if you have high-interest credit card debt, or you don't have enough cash to pay for emergencies.
As always, it pays to shop around and get multiple quotes before choosing a loan.
