What if I am over my lease mileage limit?
The reality is if you drive lots, you will pay for the mileage, one way or another. Driving a lot causes vehicles to suffer value depreciation for every mile. You can pay for it as an after-the-fact per-mile charge, or you can pay extra for an “extra miles car lease,” which allows you to increase your miles before signing your lease. Talk to your sales professional who can arrange such a lease.

Should I lease or buy my next vehicle? Which is better?
The answer depends on specifics. Some customers may not qualify for leasing based on their credit rating, income or some other requirement. Knowing these factors before arriving at a dealership can help you determine which is the better option for you. Sites like Credit Karma or the actual credit reporting services like Trans Union, Equifax and Experian will give you a free copy of your credit report so you can keep up to date with how you stand. Also, it’s a good time to check the accuracy of your report because credit agencies can occasionally make mistakes. Leasing works great for some customers, while buying is better for others. Mileage driven is a big factor when looking at a lease or a purchase. Our specialists can explain all the differences to help you make an educated decision.

What if I move to another state (Or if I moved from another state to here) with my leased car?
Life happens and we have no idea where we will be next. If you move to another state with your leased car, contact your lease finance company first, so they have a record of where the car will be stored. Sales tax rates may raise or lower, depending on where you are going to live. Check with the new state’s Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to see if you are eligible for a credit or refund of taxes you have paid in your previous state. Also, be aware there is usually a deadline to register and apply for a license plate for your car in your new state. With that in mind, our specialists may be able to help you if you are located in an area we serve. Contact a Specialist to get details.

Is a Down Payment the same as a Due at Signing?
No. A “Due at Signing Fee” (also known as a Lease Inception Fee) includes all up-front costs like cash, taxes, doc fees, deposits, first month’s payment and down payment. Of these amounts, the down payment is only part of the due at signing amount. It’s the only part of your due at signing fee that will lower the cost of the monthly payment amounts.

What is a Car Lease?
A car lease is a way to finance a vehicle for a shorter time. Approximately 32% of all new vehicles are leased. Of those, nearly 70-percent are luxury vehicles. Leasing provides an alternative means of financing a vehicle that has other benefits too. As cars have become more expensive in recent years, the prices may have stepped out of reach of an average consumer. Consumer priorities have also changed and have left less money for a transportation budget. As a result, leasing has made many vehicles more affordable, if for a shorter term.
