Ok heres the deal, I am about 10K upside down on a 08 Acura TL. Long story short my company requires us to have a 3 year or newer vehicle for the car program they have for outside salesmen and I traded a 3 year old Titan and got into a car... 1) Hate a car 2) drive onto construction sites sometimes etc, not practical for my job big mistake.. I bought this car in hopes it would hold its value over 3 years and after running the numbers I am eventually going to be in a similar situation in 3 years as I was with the Titan by rolling over negitive equity on trade in. I am looking at 2008 Explorers Eddie Bauer lease with X plan and $4250 in rebates. with this much negitive equity Im told I cant look at xlt b/c they wont do the loan off the msrp. So I am looking at leasing for 39 months to get out of being upside down. My payments are going to stay the same but I want to make sure I am not getting jerked around on the lease, it is figured at 18K miles a year. Here goes. 2008 4x4 Eddie Bauer V6. I live in Louisville Ky. The way I see it: MSRP - $35450 X plan Price = $33,489 agreed selling price with dealer Lease cash - $4250 = $29,239 Negative Eq. + 10,000 = $39,239 $Down 1000 Payments should be close to around $700 before tax. For some reason the dealer is figuring this and I dont know what some of the terms mean, it is off his quote worksheet. Selling price - $44,000 Cap Fee Window - $1,243 MFD Rebate - $4,250 Cash Cap Reduction - $969 Adj Cap Cost $40,024 MSRP $35,450 Residual % 39 Residual value $13,825.50 APR 2.75% Term 39 Tax window $2125 Base monthly Payment = $733 Total monthly Payment = $807.72 Due at signing - $2,160 I dont know what to make of all this. Am I getting a good deal considering the mess I am in? The payment on the lease is to the dollar amount I am paying on the Acura on a 60 month note. In theory I want to be able to throw the keys on the table in three years and be done with upside down on every car I have ever owned. But I can't decide what to do. Regards

Replying to: audimanhouston (Sep 14, 2009 5:38 pm) If you really want a 2010 Explorer, you would be better off financing it through Ford Credit at 1.9% for 3 years, 2.9% for 4 years, or 3.9% for 5 years. OR financing paying cash for it or financing it through an independent bank and taking advantage of the $3,000 cash incentive that is available on it this month.

Replying to: Car_man (Sep 15, 2009 1:46 am) I'm doing a bit of car shopping for my in-laws who lease cars for their business so they don't really have the buy option and their leases expire soon. my mother-in-law is deciding between audi q5 (fingers crossed) and mercedes GLK so I'll ping you for lease advice once she makes the decision. thanks for all your help.

Hi everyone... I need help... I lost my keys for my explorer, I had the vehicle towed up to the dealership & had 2 new keys & programing done. The vehicle was driven home & then started once. I had to run back into the house after I started it the second time & took the keys out. I came back out to leave & my car wouldnt start again. I know it has something to do w/ the keys cause my car is in rather good shape & nothing else could be the problem. Of course the dealership is denying any programing they did was wrong. Do you have any ideas??
