Have a few questions for the experts on here: We leased a 2007 Nissan Armada SE in Jan 2007 through NMAC with a maturity date of 4/5/10. We are located in Louisiana. The current payoff is right under $21,000. We pay the tax monthly. We are on target with miles at about 29,000. We are considering waiting to lease end and turning it in, but know we will need to put some new tires on it and maybe a few other things prior to inspection. The truck is in great condition. However, we are also considering selling it prior to the maturity date if I can find a buyer. Here goes the questions ... (1) If a dealer does a courtesy trade for us and the person buying will pay the payoff amount, will the vehicle first have to go in our name (since the current owner is NMAC) and we will have to pay TTL? If we need to pay TTL, I assume we will get the tax credit toward the new car purchase like any other trade. Anything else I need to know about going this route? Any other recommendations if we sell it prior to the lease maturity?

I originally posted this in the Ford Edge forum but found this forum and have reposted this here. I received an postcard from Ford stating that I can return my lease early (2 months). When I went to the dealer today to discuss my options, he stated that mileage would be prorated. For some reason,I was under the impression that they didnt do that. Can anyone confirm this to be true? My only reason for returning the car early was to avoid the over mileage fees. I will wait until the end of my lease and pay it then.

Soon returning a 2006 Vue leased through GMAC. It's over miles so we already know we will be billed for that, but what about excess wear and tear? What's generally cheaper: getting the EWT bill from GMAC or attempting to identify EWT yourself and repairing at a non-dealer body shop? Or is it just a crap shoot? I haven't called yet but is it common for dealers to do a sort of "courtesy" pre-inspection so you might get an idea of what they think will be EWT? Thanks!
