Kudos to you for wanting to get this
car loan
out of the way! The easiest way to do this is to round up your monthly payment to the next $100.
Paying half of your monthly payment every two weeks can also work effectively to cut off extra interest accrued on your monthly payment cycle. In addition to that, there are several other ways to pay faster such as:
  • Making one large extra payment per year
  • Making at least one large payment over the term of the loan
  • Never skip payments
  • Refinance your loan for better interest rates
It’s also important to constantly monitor competitive
