Understanding Auto Sales Tax
Most states apply sales tax to the vehicle price after subtracting your trade-in value, since you're only paying the difference to the dealer. A handful of states, however, tax the full purchase price regardless of trade-in. Manufacturer rebates are typically taxable in most states (they reduce what you pay, not the taxable price) — check your state's specific rule.
Once you know your true purchase price, plug it into the auto loan calculator to see your monthly payment and full amortization schedule.

exact rates and rules with your state's DMV or department of revenue.
