#2 of 112 Lease residuals by miiames Jan 25, 2006 (6:34 pm)
What are the current residuals and money factor for a 2006 Trailblazer and Trailblazer EXT for 24 months and 36 months with 15,000 per year. Thanks Mike Replies to this message: Car_man (Feb 09, 2006 3:48 am) mhagaman (Feb 19, 2006 2:09 am) Car_man (Mar 02, 2006 2:58 am)

Replying to: miiames (Jan 25, 2006 6:34 pm) Hi Mike. If you were to lease a 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer or Trailblazer EXT (their lease programs are the same) through GMAC right now for 24 months with 15,000 miles per year, its base lease rate and residual value should be 4.9% and 66%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 36 month lease should be 4.9% and 57%. As you can see, GMAC publishes lease rates instead of money factors for the vehicles that it leases. You can convert its published lease rates into approximate money factor equivalents by dividing them by 2400.   Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums Replies to this message: mhagaman (Feb 19, 2006 2:09 am) Car_man (Mar 02, 2006 2:58 am)

Replying to: Car_man (Feb 09, 2006 3:48 am) Are these rates dependent on ones location (I live in Minnesota)? Using the figures you provided, I get a much higher monthly payment when using the lease payment calculator on the GMAC financing website, even when discounting the MSRP. Have the rates changed? Thanks! Replies to this message: Car_man (Mar 02, 2006 2:58 am)

Replying to: mhagaman (Feb 19, 2006 2:09 am) Hi mhagaman. I don't believe that the Chevrolet Trailblazer's lease program currently varies by region, but I'll look into it just to make sure. I don't think that they've changed either. If you provide me with the MSRP and selling price of the truck that you are interested in, I'd be happy to estimate what your lease payment should be for you. We can then compare the number that I come up with to the results of GMAC's lease calculator.   Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums
#6 of 112 Lease 2006 base Trailblazer by gmhellman Mar 04, 2006 (10:21 am)
My wife and I visited the local dealer today to test drive and get numbers on a lease of a 2006 Trailblazer with the cd, on star for one year, side curtain airbags, dual climate control, for approx. 28,000 and change. I was not able to get a monthly lease figure due to the finance manager not being present to "pound out the numbers". My wife and I were hoping to be able to lease around 315 a month, with nothing down and rolling the 3,000 residual on my Bonneville into the loan. I personally don't think it is possible, but I can always hope. Is there anyone out there who knows of a cheaper price or special rebates on base LS Trailblazers?   Greg Hellman Replies to this message: Car_man (Mar 08, 2006 2:50 am)

Replying to: gmhellman (Mar 04, 2006 10:21 am) Hi Greg. The market for the Chevrolet Trailblazer is pretty soft right now. You shouldn't have much trouble getting one for dealer invoice, or perhaps a few hundred less. Check out the following discussion for additional feedback on how much you should pay for this truck right now: "Chevy Trailblazer/GMC Envoy/Olds Bravada: Prices Paid & Buying Experience". I would be happy to estimate what your monthly lease payment would be on this truck right now, but in order for me to do so I need to know its full MSRP. Let me know and I'll "pound out the numbers for you" .   Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums
#8 of 112 Lease #'s Car_man by tdepoala Mar 08, 2006 (6:59 am)
Car_man,      We are looking at a base model 06 Trailblazer with a MSRP of 28700 (we get the partner plan though, so our price is $27300, there is also the $1500 in rebates going on, to bring the price down to $25,800). We are looking at 24 and 36 months with 15k miles/year.      What should lease rate and residual value be on this? And which # would we use to calculate lease payment... MSRP or our partner plan price?   Thanks! Nick Replies to this message: Car_man (Apr 03, 2006 2:26 am)

Replying to: tdepoala (Mar 08, 2006 6:59 am) Greetings Nick. If you were to lease a 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer through GMAC on or before April 4th for 24 months with 15,000 miles per year, its base lease rate and residual value should be 4.9% and 66%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 36 month lease should be 4.9% and 57%. You will need both this truck's MSRP and selling price to calculate its lease payment. You can see exactly how to use both by checking out the following informative article that is available here at Edmunds.com: Calculate Your Own Lease Payment.   Car_man Host Smart Shopper / Prices Paid Forums
#10 of 112 2006 Trailblazer SS by luigisdad May 08, 2006 (5:08 pm)
Hi: I'm trying to decide between 2 different options. 1. Option 1 --- take over an existing lease on a 2006 TB SS with 3K miles for 22 more months for $392 per month, at 10k miles/year. Current lessee pays the $595 transfer fee and I pay the shipping of the car -- $1200 from the east coast to the west coast. I don't pay a security deposit or anything else other than the next monthly payment and then the monthly payments after that. The MSRP on that vehicle is $40,230, with a final cost after multiple discounts including employee and supplier discounts was $35,154.45. I've had the car checked at the dealer and got the Autoguard protection for that inspection. I've contacted GMAC and they say that I cannot increase the miles per year other than to prepay the $0.25 per mile which I think is a very stupid idea. 2. Option 2 -- start a brand new lease for $465 per month for 24 months with 12k miles/year for a new 2006 TB SS, with an MSRP of $36,200, with a local dealer. I'm thinking that if I can get the local dealer to come down to $410 per month, then it's a wash. I'd have to pay 1st month, 1 month security, $595 GMAC fee and $45 documentation fee. So, additional out of pockets of $1115, but I start out with a brand new car. If I had to, I could do 10k miles/year. What would you advise? Thank you Roy Replies to this message: burdawg (May 09, 2006 5:59 am) luigisdad (May 09, 2006 6:48 am)
