A new tool from Credit Karma, a free online credit tracking tool, allows users to look at the affect of various credit decisions, from opening a new credit card to applying for a car loan, on your credit.

The Credit Score Simulator shows visitors their credit score, then what would happen to the score in a variety of scenarios.
