Leasing
| As the cost of vehicles continues to escalate, we
here at Dave Smith Motors have found a way to give you the monthly
payment you desire and still drive the new vehicle of your choice.
Lease it! |
| Advantages to Leasing |
| |
- Lower Monthly Payments and Low Down Payment.
Payments on a lease are less expensive than
financing because you are only paying for the depreciation, which
is the difference between the price of the vehicle and the
residual value.
- Upside Down
Never have to worry about being upside down
where the value of the vehicle is less than the amount owed.
- Always have a payment
For most people, a car payment is like a house
payment. You will always have one so why not be driving a new
vehicle of your choice every 3 years
- Asset sense
You should buy items that appreciate and lease
items that depreciate. For example, most people would not be too
excited about buying stock for $30,000 if they knew that it would
only be worth $15,000 in 4 years.
- Low Risk
A bank or lease company is assuming the total
risk of what the vehicle will be worth in the future
- Flexibility
You do not give up the option of owning the
vehicle, you just postpone it. This gives you time to make sure
this is the vehicle for you. This makes great sense with advances
in technology that have the potential to make your vehicle
outdated
- High Mileage
Drivers can benefit by applying for extra miles
up front at a reduced price. The auto industry deducts 23 - 30
cents per mile over your mileage limit when trading in a vehicle
- Win! Win!
In many instances, the residual value is
comfortably high resulting in lower monthly payments. At the end
of the lease, the lease company absorbs the loss, not you
- Warranty
The short-term lease leaves you covered under
your factory warranty, allowing you to be worry-free about
unexpected repair bills
- Get a nicer vehicle
High residuals allow you to lease a $5,000 -
$10,000 more expensive vehicle for about the same payment as
financing
- Tax Savings
In states with sales tax, you only pay tax on
your monthly payment, not on the whole vehicle. And in some cases,
the entire lease payment may be tax deductible. Consult your
accountant for more information
