how many months can you finance a car in Texas?

I refianced a car that was new when I bought it. I thought they said in the state of Texas that they could only finance a car for 60 months but when I look on my statement it says 72.

1. As long as the lender will allow. The state doesn't care... it is the lenders burden when in two years, you will owe way more than your car is worth.
2. Depends on the cost of the car, your paying capacity, and the installment plan set by the financier, as per statutory regulations.
3. The maximum length is usually up to the lender, and whatever you agreed to in the contract. You should see the papers that you signed, presumably at the dealership. A quick check of the internet finds a lender willing to provide a loan of 84 months for a new car, which would generally be inadvisable from my point of view.
