The Car Count — The Whole Bill Of A Car, Not Just The Payment.

— The Whole Bill, Counted

Your numbers, off the deal in front of you. Blank money boxes count as zero; a box with something in it has to be a real number or the count won't stand. The count runs for the term you give it — the real life of the loan — and the monthly figure always travels with the whole bill beside it.
