good point from the previous poster, also, must make all payments on time...if you are late, (even though you may not be charged a late fee or reported late to the credit bureaus), it will change the whole amort schedule......

This must be your first financed car at a high interest rate. Go online and find an amortization calculator. Input the loan amt, interest rate, term, etc. Have it show you the spreadsheet. You can see where your loan is supposed to be after 30 months, provided all payments are made ontime. You will see that you can conceivably pay thousands of dollars on a car loan without the principal balance being reduced by nearly as much. The lower your interest rate, the better it looks.
