Hey gowick. Here's the information that you're looking for. This truck's lease program varies by trim level. For now I will assume that you are interested in an '08 Escape XLT 4WD. Let me know if you want something different. Ford Credit's current base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 Ford Escape XLT 4WD with 12,000 miles per year are 3.50% and 54%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease are 3.75% and 52%. When negotiating your lease on this truck, make sure to take advantage of the $1,000 bonus cash that Ford is currently providing on it.

Follow up, I too am interested in a 36 mo lease 12k/yr miles. My employer has an arrangement with Ford- some kinda no haggle best price and still eligible for all incentives offered by Ford. Long story short I went through the company linked website and got $16,500 after all rebates, cash incentives etc... on the totally stripped 2008 2WD/ MT model. Was wondering if you could tell me what I'd look at for payments (no tax in NH). Don't want to put much if anything down.
 
Thanks

Hi apprehensive. I would be happy to work up a lease payment on the Escape that you are interested in for you. However, in order for me to do so I need you to provide me with its full MSRP in addition to the selling price that you have already mentioned.

Hi,
I live in St. Louis and bought a 2008. Escape Hybrid a few months ago. I thought I was ready to scale down from an Expedition, but I've been frustrated, at times, when I can't carpool a load of kids or fill the cargo area with the extreme amount of equipment needed for my last 2 kids' softball tournaments. I feel like I made an error in downsizing too soon. It's with much regret that I'm thinking about selling this beautiful vehicle and buy something with 3 rows and more cargo room. My Escape is 2 wheel, loaded all the way, Leather, Nav, Satellite Radio, Heated seats, Sunroof, you name it. The color is black slate metallic - not really black, sometimes hints of the darkest blue, other times the darkest of green, I guess depending on the type of sunlight or lack of, but very cool, everybody comments about it. I know your posting is old, but I highly recommend this vehicle. I also live in the St. Louis area and the 2008 Escape Hybrid was hard to find. They had to ship it from out of town. Love the vehicle, 33mpg, Nice ride.

$229 a month? by haftown

$229 a month lease for 12,000 miles a year, 36 months, no money down for a basic XLS.
 
Is this decent lease pricing or should I be able to get it down farther. It is some kind of sign and drive/red carpet event. I am new to leases. I appreciate the help!
 
Thanks

Greetings haftown. Since you are new to leasing, it would be in your best interest to understand exactly how it works before you visit any dealers so you do not get taken advantage of. Make sure to check out the following informative articles that are available here at Edmunds.com: 10 Steps to Leasing a New Car and Calculate Your Own Lease Payment.
 
In short, the best way to get a good deal on a leased vehicle is to negotiate as low a selling price as possible and then have the dealer calculate your monthly payment using its base lease rate. Ford Credit's current base lease rate on the 2008 Edge is 3.25%.
