# Stretching the Loan Term to Lower Payments

medium [Car Sales - Financing & F&I](/scenarios/car-sales-financing-and-f-and-i)Temperament: friendly Tech: basic Budget: high 

## Scenario overview

Counsel a customer on the pros and cons of extending a loan term to 84 or 96 months to achieve a target payment.

## What the caller is dealing with

The monthly payment is just a little too high for my budget. Can we stretch the loan out to 84 months to get the payment down under $500? I know it's a long time, but that's the only way I can afford this car.

## How to practice this scenario

Open this scenario inside [Call Flow's AI role-play](/ai-sales-role-play), choose voice or chat, and Call Flow's AI plays the customer using the temperament, tech level, and budget posture above. Every session is graded instantly across rapport, discovery, objection handling, and closing technique, so reps know exactly what to fix before the next attempt. [See the full feature set](/features) or [start a free team trial](/signup?plan=team-trial).
