-------------------
Find when it becomes $750
-----
750 = 600*(1 + 0.022/12)^t (t = time in months)
1.00183333^t = 750/600 = 1.25
t*log(1.0018333) = log(1.25)
t = log(1.25)/log(1.0018333)
t =~ 121.83 months
------
Balance will be <$750 for 120 months = 10 years
---------------
You can't get a new car for $750 anyway.
