OK, quick question - maybe even a dumb question:
I've never leased a vehicle, only purchased outright. I've been considering a purchase of a 2000 or 2001 9-5, but this thread brings up an intriguing question:
Does it make ANY sense to lease a vehicle that you fully intend to purchase once the lease is up? I drive a lot of miles and my car is parked outside at work, so on the surface a lease sounds unattractive since it will almost certainly not be worth what the dealer claims it should be at the end of the lease. But why not take advantage of low payments for 3 years, drive it all you want, then purchase it outright at lease end, rather than get whacked when you try to give it back?
You can tell I don't know much about this... thanks for any help.
Dave
