If you have $35,000 to put on a down payment, you have more than enough to pay for the snowmobile.

However, if all that you have is $3500 to put on a down payment, then you will still need to save

$6000 - $3500 = $2500.

At $400 per month, $2500 ÷ $400 = 6.25, it will take another 7 months to have enough money.
