If they’d offered 72 months I’d have taken that. Still only kept one of the cars 2 years and the other for 3, but wasn’t paying much for them.

It’s not the duration, it’s the APR that kills you.
You don’t have a fico score in the 500s, like an NCAC. For them it’s about the monthly nut. They don’t even understand interest rates. They get sold a monthly payment.
