What are typical leasing payments for a Toyota Tacoma? What’s your monthly payment for your truck? I’m considering leasing a Taco and would love to see what others are paying
I get that you might not be looking for financial advice but I really think leasing is not a great idea
And financing is usually a bad choice for about 95% of people too. It’s a big part of why cars are so pricey nowadays and then folks are confused why they’re stuck with long agreements
I totally agree with that. I’m leasing a Tesla right now and wish I had more knowledge about it
Doesn’t that go against your contract? Seems odd they can change the system mid-lease and not let you buy it out after you signed
I don’t think that was ever guaranteed in my contract
So they only allowed buyouts in certain states at the time? Where do you live?
Yeah, I live in one of those allowed states. But in early 2022, Tesla changed it so Model 3 and Y leases can’t have buyouts anymore
That’s interesting. I had no idea they operated like that. Have you noticed any long-term issues with your Tesla? The only time I drove one was back when I was a valet
The build quality could definitely improve, but driving it is amazing with that EV torque. I had to replace my battery because it stopped holding a charge, but that was covered under warranty. I haven’t heard of many long-term issues from others, though. The Model 3 hasn’t even been around for 10 years, but lots of people have easily hit 200,000 miles
How much did you put down on your lease?
Why lease when you can buy for about the same monthly payment?
Honestly, don’t lease vehicles. Just my opinion, but it’s a financial fact. Unless you’re wealthy and money is no concern, then leasing a Tacoma wouldn’t make sense either
