iamfrank and others... well I lucked out. After getting a $2600 reduction off residual to buy my 2005 T&C coming off lease I got attitude from the dealer's finance manager when he didn't fax a document to the bank fast enough. I complianed to the dealer manager and he gave another $1k off if I would release. I got a 2008 T&C Touring with no other major options for $297 per month. My cap cost was $22,739 and money factor of .00124. I got one of the last Chrysler leases. Thanks for all the help and support.

I'm almost done with my first lease of an 06 T&C. I'm gathering from this board that there may be more options than just turning it in or paying full residual. I'm torn with what to do and I have NO CLUE. The car is under in mileage. Of all the vehicles I've ever owned, this one sustained the most ...ouch..are you ready...body damage. It will need a new bumper  $700 - there is a crack near the license plate, there is a 5 inch long indentation along the bottom of the passenger side where the kids wagon ran into it. The back bumper has a 3x 3 scuff in the grey plastic of the bumper. So, I've got 3 things that I will be charged for. We also (circuit city) installed a $1000 overhead DVD system of which I know I will not recoup. Will I be charged for altering it? My question, Should I try a personal sale before the lease is up and try to get rid of it for as close to what it will cost to pay it off (minus the scuffs)? I'd like to move into a VW Routan for the simple idea of no $$ down in this economy and a $339 lease payment. I could buy a used van and drive it for a couple years until the economy improves and I'm not so fearful of taking a ton of $$ out of savings. I would consider buying the car from them.. will they offer me discounts to buy it less than original price? If I buy a DIFFERENT car from them, will they go easier on my with my turn in???  I have no clue....please let me know any thoughts you may have! Thanks....
