Overview

Xtreme Crane Calculator is a purpose-built financing tool for crane dealers, rental companies, and heavy equipment contractors. It ships with two shortcodes covering two distinct use cases — a full-featured calculator for detailed proposals and a lightweight version suited to landing pages and lead forms.

Features

Full Calculator — [xtreme_crane_loan_calculator]

• Five loan types: Equipment Loan, Equipment Finance Agreement, FMV Lease, $1 Buyout Lease, Balloon Loan
• Five crane presets with realistic financing defaults: Mobile, Tower, Crane Truck, Rough Terrain, Crawler
• Soft cost financing: sales tax, delivery, installation, inspection, registration, and other fees — each separately itemised and optionally financed
• Trade-in value input with automatic net equity calculation
• Four payment frequencies: monthly, quarterly, semiannual, annual
• Deferred first payment toggle (30-day deferral with accrued interest rolled into balance)
• Balloon / residual value support for balloon loans and FMV leases
• Full amortization schedule with CSV export and print layout
• Three Chart.js charts: donut (principal vs interest split), balance decline line, stacked payment composition over time
• Scenario comparison: save up to 5 configurations and compare side by side with a grouped bar chart
• PDF download via bundled jsPDF — full amortization table included in the export
• Shareable URL parameters — encode current inputs in the URL for bookmarking or sharing with colleagues
• New vs used equipment toggle

Lite Calculator — [xtreme_crane_calculator_lite]

• Streamlined 5-input layout: crane price, down payment, interest rate, term, and taxes/fees
• Three quick presets with SVG crane icons: Mobile Crane ($350K), Tower Crane ($850K), Used Crane Truck ($220K)
• Tabbed results panel: Payment Estimate, Loan Breakdown, Amortization
• Donut chart with principal/interest legend
• Expandable amortization table
• Mobile-first responsive design with 4 breakpoints
• Minimal asset footprint — loads independently of the full calculator

Both Versions

• CSS-isolated with scoped class namespaces (.xclc, .xclcl) to prevent theme conflicts
• Assets loaded only on pages that contain the shortcode
• No external API calls — Chart.js and jsPDF are bundled
• Works with any WordPress theme
