Not sure when it happened, or if it's really even the norm. But when you can
very easily find auto financing rates around 1.65%, the difference between 60 months and 72 months is a couple hundred bucks at most.
But it's not hard to see why. Trucks, Minivans, SUVs, and even 4-door sedans are pushing $50k these days.
