Here you go, phred84044. If you were to lease a 2006 Chrysler Town & Country Touring through Chrysler financial right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00181 and 51%, respectively. DaimlerChrysler is providing a total of $4,000 lease cash on this van right now. In addition to this money, dealers have the ability to earn up to an additional $1,000 dealer cash per unit if they meet certain criteria.

Greetings darthken. If you were to lease a 2006 Chrysler Town & Country Touring through Chrysler Financial right now for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00181 and 51%, respectively. I haven't seen this van's 27 month lease program, but I can tell you that its 30 month money factor would be the same and its residual value would be 55%.

Thanks Car_man! Got my van this weekend. They tried to bake an extra 1% into the MF but thanks to your info, I got it removed. Much appreciated.

#26 of 384 T&C Limited - residual & money factor?

Hey CarMan - you're really the best for answering all these questions!
Can you answer one for me? I'm looking at a Town & Country Limited for 15k miles, 36 months in the Philadelphia area. What kind of money factor and residual should I be expecting?
Thanks!

My dealer gave me a quote of 27 months, 54% residual, and a .00148 Money factor with a payment of $503 on a Town & Country Limited with an MSRP of 38500, with a cap cost of 31194. He said payments on 36 month are actually higher, at $527. How does that sound?

This site has been helpful, so I wanted to post what I have been offered in the Twin Cities (MN) for others' benefit as well as ask a question:
1. 2006 T&C Touring, no extra options
2. 27 Months
3. 12,000 miles per annum
4. 0 out of pocket
5. $317 per month
I think it is a decent deal because 2 of the seven dealers who had been trying to win the deal both dropped out when they heard that offer and told me to take it.
My question is: Can I/Should I negotiate the end of lease purchase price before I sign? I believe they base that price off of the MSRP, but the price I have negotiated is thousands less.
Thank you

Thanks fredg5. It's definitely very time consuming
. If you were to lease a 2006 Chrysler Town & Country Limited through DaimlerChrysler Financial right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00222 and 45%, respectively. When negotiaging your lease on this car, make sure to take the total of $4,500 in cash incentives that are available on leases of it right now into account.

#30 of 384 2006 Town & Country Spring Special Edition Lease Question
by woodhout
Apr 29, 2006 (8:59 pm)
Car_man,
Can you please verify a lease payment, residual, and money factor for me? I used the Lease Calculator here at Edmunds.com and came up with a payment different from my dealer's, using the same numbers, by about $30/month (Dealer = 399/month - Mine = 358). The only thing that I did that maybe I shouldn't have was leave the "title, registration, other costs" blank as I will take care of title and registration at the DMV myself and the dealer said there were no other fees other than what I have below. I appreciate your assisstance:
MSRP: 33965
Selling Price: 30178
Rebate: 4500
State Tax: 6%
Term: 27 months
Money Factor: 0.00221
Miles: 12K/year
Acquistion Fee: 500
Security: 0
Also, I see in posting #27 that the money factor was 0.00148. Do you know if that's still being offered?
Thank You
