vehicle leasing - pros and cons?

[UncleDave]

The only financially sound reason to lease is if you are running that lease through a business that needs the tax right off. That was the original reason for leases. For a private individuals it is a horrid move as you are flushing the money. Buy a 2 year old certified preowned and you will be much better off. This is coming futon someone who was in the business for nearly 20 years and my father was for 45 years. I literally grew up in a dealership.

Or put another way: A lease is a tax for people who are bad at math.
