    Yes, same car different name plate.
    I prefer cars that are "disposables", cheap cars I can throw out when they breakdown. I get my money's worth that way. Leases are for the birds in my opinion. I have more fun ways to spend my money.
    If I wanted an expensive car, I would get something that would hold it's value, not loose it the minute you drive it out of the showroom. That is conspicuous consumption in my book.

  2. I was looking at that site and thought about the spanking the leasing companies are going to take on the Ford Explorers that are coming up for turn in. With all the bad press the Explorer got with the tire issue, they can be had extremely inexpensive, relative to other vehicles in the class. The residuals on these are far in excess of the current FMV.
