Have you ever leased a vehicle?

Question:
What are some of the pros and cons of leasing versus buying a vehicle?

Answers:

what is the best universal argument u can use when fighting a ticket?

I have bought many vehicles and leased the last two. If you took possession of two identical vehicles on the same day, one a 60 month purchase plan, and one a 48 month lease, you would:
Pay less per month for the lease.
When leasing, only pay taxes on the amount of the monthly payment, not on the whole vehicle
When leasing, not pay for any repairs.
If you bought the vehicle at the end of the lease, you would end up paying $1,000 to $3,000 more for leasing
If you lease, you never have to buy tires or major repairs
If you're vehicle equity is less than the buyout at the end of the lease, you can walk away and not take a loss.
However, the worst part of a lease is getting over the fact that at the end of paying monthly payments for 3 or 4 years, you don't have a lot of equity built up, and have to give up the vehicle.
Bottom line, if you like to always drive a fairly new vehicle, and can live with always paying a low monthly payment, it can be a good way to go. Hope this helps.

Pink Tires??

I lease. I do this because I want to switch cars frequently, and leasing allows me to do this without the hassle of selling the old car or making repairs- most of the time leases are covered by a full warranty for the life of the car. There are cons, though- you are putting alot of money into something that you do/will not own. Also, there are mileage restraints, mine is 12000/yr. If you go over, you have to pay the difference. Also, you have to have full insurance coverage with a lease because it is never fully paid for. However, you can choose to purchase at the end of a lease, but it is normally not very cheap.

Where is the cheapest test-only smog check near sunnyvale?

Seems stupid to me. You have to pay the same amount of bills to lease as to buy and at the end you end up with nothing.
