I am aware of how the leases work with mileage limits, and it doesn't matter because I fully intend to purchase the thing after the lease is up. I just can't do an enormous payment on the front end in a finance. That's ridiculous, isn't it?
Appreciate the feedback thus far. I am waiting for specific numbers on selling price/buyout amount/money factor from the dealership. I was at the dealership in person once, the rest of the back-and-forth has been through text message with the salesperson. Because I want it in gator, nothing has...
Quick background: 46 year-old male, not a car guy, not a Jeep guy, terrible at buying cars and figuring out how not to get ripped off, terrible with money ... always deeply in love with Jeeps from afar, especially in love with the Gladiator, now have the means to lease-to-own one.
Spent a day...
