Short Term Lease/Long Term Rentals

[kia027]

Has anyone ever done this?

Am thinking this may be a good way to 'test drive' a particular make/model of car before really committing to it.

Re: Short Term Lease/Long Term Rentals

I was thinking if i could drive what I want for a few months it would give me an idea of how I would like it long term

ie 1 to 6 months


me- want yukon denali xl
mr- prefers an electric car but not made yet. Mr is thinking if I lease the car I want then when gas prices go up I wont be stuck with a car with high gas requirements.

this said by the man who has to take a detour home from his meeting to charge his car

Buy a GM, and you get a 60 day satisfaction guaranty.

Save a Job-buy American or Canadian!!

Gm an Ford have some nice vehicles rolling off the assembly line

stay away from Jap Crap or Korean imports

yes I took your advice and mrKia and I went to look at some this past weekend.

Saw Lincoln MKT so called third row seat can hold infants

Mercury Mountaineer - not impressed

GMC

Acadia - not bad - third row is manageable
Buick Enclave- I liked the grill mrKia did not
Yukon Denali XL mrKia

Acura MDX -- upgraded stuff from current - I worry about being in this same position 130K miles later

I lease but dont drive much. In 4 yrs I dont even have 50K km on it. If you plan to sell it yourself or flip into another lease then that is fine.

so if u do a short-term lease, you would have to have your numbers in order to ensure that it works for you if you decide into it that you dont want or like the car.

If I dont like the car would I not just walk away?

If I like the car then I would walk away, and buy a new one fi last 8 yrs ?
