Good point; however, as someone else pointed out, one could also do well by purchasing a used vehicle on which the major chunk of "resale hit" has already been taken. It just depends on the vehicle and at what price point you purchase.

Honda's retain their value at an amazing rate.I was looking at used civics last december and almost choked when I saw what the dealers wanted for 2-3 year old certified Honda's.If you are only going to want a car for 3ish years I think leasing makes the most sense.Don't have to worry about resale and u know upfront what it is going to cost

Perhaps in the best of situations. But again, we're looking at someone who is just moving to the country. This could make it difficult to get financing on a lease. I know it *used* to be a problem.
