Expenses Due at Signing and Beyond

Don’t forget--the cost of a vehicle doesn’t end at monthly payments. You’ll need to consider the costs of potential warranties and insurance granted by the dealership. In Louisiana, the dealership is responsible for collecting sales tax during your purchase, which is 4% of the total cost before trade-in. You’ll also need to consider registration cost, title fees, and plate fees. Factor this into the initial cost so you can make sure you’re working within your budget, especially if you have very little money to put down at signing.
