How are you guys negotiating such low monthly payments for this package? Every time I do the lease calculator, the monthly payment comes above $500 with all of the above numbers entered in. I'm looking to lease a 2012 Laredo 4x2 MSRP 27,999. Currently, in my area, Jeep has a $309/month lease promotion for the base model Laredo. Am I better off just negotiated the purchase price of the car and then telling the dealer I want to lease?
 
Thanks for any help. I'm new to leasing. Don't want to get screwed.

Hi its2loud,
 
Please remember that a lease is based on three variables: Negotiated sales price; Residual Value (RV); and Money Factor (MF). In a monthly lease payment, the RV determines the monthly depreciation component while the MF determines the monthly interest charges. Then, in most states but not all, your tax is assessed on the monthly payment.
 
RV is a fixed percentage set by the financial institution who will underwrite the lease. There is a base rate MF that is suggested by the financial institution as well but dealers have the lattitude to mark it up as another source of profit. Both RV and MF are based on your model, lease term, and mileage per year
  
My unsolicited advice is,
- Ask Carman on this forum for the RV and MF for the lease term of interest so you have that in your backpocket and can compare to the numbers the dealer suggests
- Negotiate your best sales price on the truck
- Pay $0 down (cap cost reduction) and only pay 1st month's payment and any DMV fees
  
My apologies for being pedantic as I'm simply trying to help.
  
Cheers!

Thanks so much for this info. It's all very helpful and appreciated. I would like to get a gauge on what the MF and RV for a lease are so I know what I'm dealing with when I go into the dealer. I just don't want to go in blind because then I know I'll get taken.
 
Thanks!

#843 of 1176 MF and RV on JGC models? by gotgt3

Hi Car Man!
Could you provide the MF and residuals on the jeep grand cherokee laredo X as well as the JGC Limited?
I'm getting such crazy numbers that what the dealer is saying/calculating does not make ANY sense!
Many thanks!

Hi Dewarsandsoda,
Quick question about your post. If the lease is determined base on the negotiated sales price - why is it that the NSP can be 32K but the cap cost is 37k (ie barely below MSRP?
Shouldnt the significant decrease in negotiated SP make the capitalized amt also lower?
