1/3 of new car loans are longer than 6 years. That is up from 10% over a decade ago.

This article states that dealers are making more money off the loans than the cars they sell. I heard recently from a friend that if you’re paying cash at some dealers, they aren’t as accommodating. There is apparently no shortage of people who are willing to pay more through dealer financing. (that was pre-coronavirus)

You can't buy happiness, but you can buy car parts which is kind of the same thing.
