The MyAutoResource Editorial Team covers the money side of owning a car: auto loans and refinancing, buying and trade-in strategy, insurance decisions, extended warranties, and used-car research. We build every article around a real ownership decision and concrete dollar figures, and we draw on primary sources including the Federal Reserve, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), NHTSA, Experian, Cox Automotive, Edmunds, and Consumer Reports.
