Why is Car Leasing Popular?
Two factors helped cause the shift to leasing. First, new cars prices have rapidly spiraled upwards over the last few years, often putting prices out of reach of average buyers. Second, increased cost of housing, food, and other necessities of life have left less money in the monthly budget for transportation. The net effect is that people have become increasingly eager to find ways to make personal vehicles more affordable.
Auto manufacturers and finance companies have come to the rescue in a big way with consumer car leasing programs. These programs are simply a modified version of business leasing that have been around for decades. This helps explain much of the strange language and confusing concepts associated with consumer leasing today.
In a nutshell, leasing has become popular because it offers people a way to drive the vehicles they want - often better vehicles than they could buy - for less money and less hassle. Low monthly payments are the big attraction, although we'll soon find out why it's important to look at other factors before deciding to lease.
