You know a lot of people do that (lease), when they know (and admit) they want a new car every 3 years. So many people talk about keeping a vehicle for 5-10 years but usually end up trading it in 3-4 years anyway.
- often self-employed (like realtors), making it easier for their tax accountant to calculate/deduct vehicle expense.
- have predictable annual mileage.
- take reasonable care of the car, so that when they turn the car in there are no additional charges for damage beyond normal wear and tear.
- Will not end the lease early, otherwise you will pay through the nose.
Just some thoughts on subject....
