Ownership

When you lease a vehicle, you do not own it. You pay to use it during the term of your lease, allowing you to drive the latest models.

Payments

Since you pay for the vehicle's depreciation, plus applicable taxes and fees instead of the purchase price, you can drive a premium vehicle for less than you might with financing over a similar term.

Mileage

We offer a variety of mileage options for you to choose from to meet your driving needs. Whatever you choose as your base mileage option, you'll retain the opportunity to purchase more miles later on.

Wear and Use

Most leases charge you for any damages made to the vehicle. Cracks, cuts, tears or stains that are more than 1/2 inch may be considered excess wear and tear.

If you’re the type who needs to put your own personal stamp on your vehicle with cosmetic alterations, then buying might be your best route.

payments

Payments

Payments are based on the terms of your financing contract. You will have a set number of payments, each of which may help you build equity in your vehicle. Because you're paying for the vehicle's full price over the term of your contract, your monthly payment will typically be higher than if you were leasing the same vehicle over a similar term. You can opt to pay your balance off faster by paying more against the principal.
