Mortgage and car loan costs deliver fresh sticker shock

Original: Here's the latest sticker shock: Borrowing for a mortgage — or a car

Borrowing costs for mortgages and car loans have climbed to levels borrowers describe as the latest example of sticker shock, according to NPR's report on the trend.

Why now: Rising interest rates are making everyday big-ticket borrowing, like homes and cars, suddenly much more expensive.
