Here's the information that you're looking for, berlyb3. Chrysler Financial's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT with 15,000 miles per year are .00053 and 38%, respectively.
 
Chrysler is currently providing $4,000 lease cash on the '07 Grand Caravan. It is difficult to say whether it will have to increase its cash incentives on it to help unload the remaining '07 models now that the '08s arrived, but any increase in cash incentives will probably be offset by the fact that its lease program will get worse as the model year progresses.

Hi hcop. These fees have nothing to do with your dealer. They are standard Chrysler Financial charges. It charges a $700 acquisition fee on every vehicle that it leases. this fee can either be paid at lease signing or rolled into your vehicle's capitalized cost to make it part of your monthly payment. It also charges a $425 disposition fee at lease-end to consumers who do not purchase their leased vehicle or lease another one through Chrysler Financial.

Hi wgbcworship. I don't believe that Chrysler Financial has introduced a special lease program for the 2008 Dodge Caravan yet. At least I haven't seen one for it. I suspect that it will introduce a special lease program on it when it publishes its new lease program on September 5th.
 
I don't have a good sense of what the market will be like for the redesigned Chrysler minivans yet. While I'm not a minivan person, I think that Chrysler did an excellent job with the new Caravan and Town & Country. Having said this, the demand for minivans has not been that strong. General Motors and Ford have replaced most of their vans with crossover vehicles. Even if the initial demand for the redesigned minivans is strong, I suspect that within a couple of months dealers will be selling it for close to dealer invoice.

Welcome patdepdry. That lease payment does sound pretty high. We're talking about a Dodge here, not a BMW or a Mercedes-Benz. The best way to get a good deal on a new vehicle is to negotiate as low a selling price as you can on it and then have the dealer calculate your monthly payment using its buy rate lease money factor. Try to get a selling price that's as close to dealer invoice as possible before the deduction of any available cash incentives. Chrysler is currently providing $1,500 lease cash plus an additional $500 to $1,000 bonus cash in select regions on this model right now. Chrysler Financial's current buy rate lease money factor for a 36 month lease of a 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT is .00148. I would bee happy to estimate what this van's monthly payment should be for you if you provide me with the MSRP and selling price of the exact model that you want.

Here's the information that you're looking for, deejay2099. Chrysler Financial's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT with 12,000 miles per year are .00130 and 50%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier. When negotiating your lease on this van, make sure to take advantage of the $1,500 lease cash that is available on it.
