They tell you you pay more but get a better rate when you do short-term loans. But if you do the math. The 6 yr is best. Then make double payments. 2.5 is an approx. The second payment is purely to the principle so I'm sure it will pay down in less.
Actually, the best rates are available on shorter loans. Longterm loans are riskier in the banks point of view. 3-5 years would get you a better rate.
4 years in car sales has taught me that, and so has having a finance director for a father lol
