999 times out of 1,000 it is very foolish to lease a car...stupid actually, unless one owns a business and can write it off. Why anyone leases is beyond me, because if you do the math, and if there's no tax advantages, it is stupid, stupid, stupid.

At the time of start, all people see is the very low monthly payment, but ignore the very low alloted miles per year, and then after the lease is done, no equity baby! Oh, and did I say no tax advantages for non-biz owners too?

Sorry, but it's true.

A husband that blames his wife for the need to get rid of his car is ah....nevermind...we all know. lol

Getting out of a lease so fast is going to cost....plebs and their financial silliness, to be sure.

As for so called low milage....my Yaris gets BETTER MPG then advertized because I know how to drive it for high MPG...so either the driver is foolish with his driving habits or the car is faulty....if fault, the warranty can mitigate this....I get 44.5 on average 40% city, 60% highway driving.

Yeah this guy is a troll...Leasing a Yaris is not stupid...for some people its a good move...Why do I want to pay 22,000 cash for a Yaris ???? (Thats what they cost in CAD dollars on the road.) Do I want to drive this Yaris for my entire life ?

No.

So for me I like a 3-4 year lease, only pay for what you use type thing, then give it back and get a new Toyota without the hassle of selling etc..

Some peolpe like to buy a car and drive it for 20 years until its a jalopy and the wheels fall off, in order to squeeze every single penny out of the purchase...other lease and get more enjoyment from low payments and new cars every few years...

Um.. Ok.. I cannot see getting into a situation where I rent a car (that's all a lease is) and then am contractually limited in how far I can drive it per year.. Leasing a car gives all the profit to the dealer and you after 4 or 5 or whatever years get nothing.. except a bill if you've driven too much..

Not good financial sense..
