To determine Eric's monthly payment for buying the Ford Explorer, we need to consider the total cost of the car and the interest charge.

First, let's add the cost of the car and the interest charge:
Total cost = Cost of the car + Interest charge
Total cost = $26,000 + $3,000
Total cost = $29,000

Now, we need to divide the total cost by the number of equal payments required:
Monthly payment = Total cost / Number of payments
Monthly payment = $29,000 / 50
Monthly payment = $580

Therefore, Eric's monthly payment for the Ford Explorer will be $580.
