Current Leasing - How Bad is it?

Hi, all.

First time poster, long time lurker. My wife and I are thinking of getting out of our 22 F-150 and into a cheaper truck. The SR5 Tundra's meet all of our needs and we're strongly considering leasing as we've been trading every few years as it is, plus we don't drive that much, ~12k or less per year. I know the market is not the best at the moment, but using the tools at leasehackr makes it seem that it could be viable.

If it helps, we're in the Greensboro area of NC. We stopped by our local dealer and walked the lot after they closed. They didn't have any dealer adds listed on the window stickers, but I know that doesn't mean much.

Has anyone had any luck getting a good lease these days?

 

Im picking up a 2023 Platinum Saturday. They took off of msrp too!!
3yr lease and I'm happy with the end results.

Just have to drive 180 miles one way to get it.

 

Check out leasehackr .com forums. I got an awesome lease for my Tacoma right before the pandemic by reading that forum. There are some lease brokers that specialize in Toyota leases.

generally over the past few years even the brokers are saying purchase is better than leasing. But do some reading on that site. Great info.

 

Not sure a Tundra will be any cheaper. Leasing can make sense for some people. I would try caredge.com, formerly YAA. They will actually review your “deal” and give advice. I don’t have any ties to them, just subscribed to their site to get educated. Good luck.
