Bought a Dodge GC SXT by garn0

in December for exactly $18,000. It was a 2005 and had 10K miles on it. Had the standard 3.8L engine, power slider doors, steering wheel audio controls, stow and go seats, etc. I found the stow and go seats to be fairly uncomfortable. Not greatly sure it was a wonderful deal but it didn't seem bad compared to the other dealers that I had been talking with. It was the cheapest of the dealers I talked to and it came in under the TMV value on Edmunds. It was a certified van with 8/80 warranty.
 
I bought extra warranty for electrical items plus and that cost me $650. I bought gap insurance for $148. It was the fist time I had bought added warranty on a vehicle but the quote was 200 dollars under what I received via e-mail from other private sellers on the net.
 
Good deal? Too late now but wondered what everyone thought.

Hi garn0. Congratulations on your new van. Did you lease it? It doesn't sound like it. This particular discussion is for community members to discuss leasing the Dodge Caravan. You would be better off discussing the price that you paid for your van over in the "Chrysler Voyager/Dodge Caravan: Prices Paid & Buying Experience" discussion.

Hello Car_man,
Could you please provide me with the lease numbers for the subject vehicle. I will be leasing for no money down, 12K miles, 39 or 42 months. I am a returning Chrysler lesee so I can take advantage of all cash back offers totaling $5K. MSRP for the vehicle is $27,830 with a selling price of $20,519. Thanks much for your help.

I'd be happy to help you out, deejay2099. If you were to lease a 2006 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT through Chrysler Financial right now for 36 months (its program is less attractive for the terms that you mentioned) with 12,000 miles per year, its buy rate lease money factor and residual value should be .00101 and 47%, respectively. Since you provided all of the necessary price info, let's work up a lease payment on this van and see what we come up with. According to my calculations if you were to lease a 2006 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT with an MSRP of $27,830 and a selling price of $20,519 through Chrysler Financial for 36 months with 12,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly payment should be around an attractive $241 per month.

2006 Dodge Caravan SXT Lease by apostle31

Hi I just leased a 2006 Dodge Caravan SXT. It is a 27 month lease with 15,000 miles a year. My total payment including taxes a month is 299.75. This was a no money down lease. Only thing I paid was first months lease payment. However, I have a few problems. They told me at the end of the lease I just turn in vehicle and owe nothing. I re-read lease and I have a $425.00 turn in fee. Also, the Gross Capitalized Cost is $21,378 that amount is in paranthesis and on the right hand column is $22,269. Then you take off the 4,000 for rebates which comes down to 18,269. I thought it should be about $900 dollars less at around 17,000 for the Adjusted Capitalized Cost. This would I think lower my payment considerably. My Residual Value is 10,826 and there is also a rent charge of $196 that I dont understand. Any info on any of my questions or if this is a good lease would be appreciated. Thank You

SXT lease - $99/month by backy
Feb 26, 2006 (1:31 pm)

A local dealer is advertising a Grand Caravan lease for $99/month, $2995 + license + first payment + tax down, for 27 months. No security deposit. It is a SXT with no options, MSRP $27,830. It says "all rebates to dealer" and also that you must lease through DC Credit. This price seems too good to be true, since Dodge is running an ad on Edmunds.com for what sounds like the same kind of lease, but for $179/month. Anyone else see a deal comparable to this?

Car_man, Looking to lease the 2006 Dodge Grand caravan. I stopped by local dealership today to get some info. Here is what I have... I have 1997 Plymouth Grand Voyager, leased vehicle that I paid off a couple years ago. Do I qualify for lease loyalty? When I am choosing the van I want, is the price negotiatable, or is the lease amount?
I was going to use the little $ equity in the van towards the lease. If they give me $2000 for the old van, where do you think my payments would come in at? If they say $249, can I say " I need to be at $229?" Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks, Jerry
