If you make a principle payment this will reduce the amount of interest you will pay overall and potentially reduce the life of the loan. You may have to specify "principle payment" otherwise the company may not apply it in this manner, and it will not save money in the end. Make sure your loan allows prinicple payments and early payoffs without penalties.
