I am looking to lease.
 
Until the end of the month there is a $3500 rebate on the Luxury model as well as an additional $1000. They are also waiving the bank fee.
 
I got back from a different dealer with the following:
 
$4080 Down (Includes the Down payment, Tax and fees)
 
$359 per mo. for 36 mos.
 
Sound good?
 
You can do better on a 24 mo lease right now but that is too short for me.

see if you can get the cash back to cover your down payment.
if not, it's like the dealer is getting 7-8 grand up front in a lease deal and that is NO deal for you.
 
see if you can reduce your cost up front down to around $1,000 - push as much cost to the residual and of course reduce the cap. cost down to around invoice

$4000 seems really high for a lease. I was told you could take the cash part out of the inception fees and work it into the monthly payment. That would lower your total out of pocket. Can this be done?

I have no clue, but after seeing the numbers yesterday where Toyota is eating the lunch of Ford and GM, I'm guessing they will have to come up with something good.
 
As long as Ford and GM insist on keeping their silly MSRP levels where they are, then you will continue to see ads in the paper that read $4,000 - $12,000 off MSRP.
 
SUV's have the biggest mark downs these days from what I see in print ads.

I wish we could get some more people here. I see the Mountaineer everywhere and yet limited info. My wife wants the Pilot and there is more than enough on that forum.

And I really like it. Not sure if I want a newer one as they look a bit boxy. The only problems I have had with mine is 2 recent trips to Ford for replacement of the rear clutches. 2nd time seems to have worked... so far. One other problem, I think plagues most Ford owners, is the radio display now fades in and out and sometimes goes away completely.
 
Other than that, it is a 5.0l all-wheel drive, has a special trim package...Monterey, rides nice, gets around 15MPG average, and I just really like it.

Well....we went with the Pilot and to be honest, I am glad we did. We really liked the Mountaineer and we were ready to close the deal but it fell through. Good Luck.
