Here at Hopkins Ford, we want to make sure our friends and neighbors from Elgin and surrounding areas know what to expect when they commit to a vehicle purchase or lease. That is why we update our blog regularly not only with the latest Ford news but with useful information, such as factors to consider as you plan your budget. Below, we have included a video on this very topic.

The projected monthly car payment is but one part to a whole. When planning your budget, you should also set aside funds set for licensing fees, taxes, and even gasoline. Having additional spending money for routine maintenance as well as necessary repairs is also a good idea. Covering these extra expenses in your financial plan will ultimately make vehicle ownership easier for you, so do yourself a favor and make sure to plan your budget thoroughly and in advance!

When you are ready to proceed, visit our Ford dealership, and our financiers will sit with you to review your automotive finances. This is an excellent opportunity to discuss other ways to save money with your purchase or lease. In this way, our team will go further to ensure you leave satisfied with your desired car in tow.
