[QUOTE="Chaparral, post: 4339252, member: 49817"] Leasing is a very specific point of entry. For some people it does make sense. It is very good if the company is providing you with a monthly stipend specifically to lease a vehicle. For most of us the math will never work out in our favor! In most leases you are still responsible for maintaining the vehicle. This includes new tires, repairs after wrecks, etc. you pay for the miles driven. Drive a lot, you will be paying a lot. I have been buying new trucks when buying but those days are probably long gone. We buy older vehicles which will not depreciate too much over the next two to four years. Drive, sell, repeat. I can do ,most of my own mechanic work but there are some I cannot and some I do not have time to complete. The dealership will always win the financial portion. Most of the time they make a killing on leases. [/QUOTE]
