Ford Credit numbers by tkschleg

Hey Car man,
I'm turning in a Volvo lease on Aug. 23 and looking to lease a Ford Edge Limited in Dupage county, IL. One dealer told me that he is hearing rumors that Ford Credit will change their residual's due to the recent losses reported and the fact that Chrysler is getting out of the leasing business. He said it could save me about $100.00 per month if I sign before Aug.1.
 
Do you know how often Ford updates the residuals or money factors? Is it set every month at the first of the month?
 
Is this high pressure sales to get the sale in by the end of the month or is there some truth to it since Ford Credit lost $2 Billion?
 
Thanks,

Hi tkschleg. Even though Chrysler completely stopped leasing and General Motors' lease program is much worse this month, I believe that Ford's August lease program is the same as it was in July. It is possible that Ford might reduce its lease support after its current program ends on September 2nd, but I haven't heard any rumors to that effect yet. It sounds more like the dealer was trying to create a false sense of urgency to get you to finalize your deal ASAP.

My Edge lease deal by ihatedealers

Just leased an Edge limited (FWD) 2008 -- Here is my deal, hope it helps.
 
MSRP: 36,620 (Nav, Pan roof, everything but AWD)
Sell Price: 29,999 (includes 2k factory loyalty)
Residual = 56% (24mos)
Money factor = .0003 (.75%)
$300 down + drive off costs (the 300 down payment was to come off drive off but they screwed up the paper work -- no big deal)
Base payment = $398.14
 
I'm in Massachusetts so I'll have to add 5% sales tax and excise tax for a total payment of $439.00
 
Good luck.

Thanks for taking the time to give back and share the details of your deal, ihatedealers. Hopefully you didn't hate your dealer experience too much . Don't forget to stop by the Dealer Ratings & Reviews section of Edmunds.com to share your thoughts on your recent dealer experience as well. Enjoy your new Edge .

Thank you for the reply Car Man -- great website!
I should explain why I am "Ihatedealers" -- I went to 3 different Ford dealers for quotes on the exact same MSRP/Equip Edge. I was quoted 3 different residual values ranging from 52% to 56% (24mo 10.5k) -- all in the same month within 4 days of each other. This website helped me determine the ballpark residual. I went with the dealer that gave me the highest. Anything under the true residual factor goes in the dealer's pocket. I hate the fact that they will look you in the eyes and LIE.
 
If you are going to buy / lease a car -- this website is a MUST!
 
PS - I still think I left money on the table.

You're very welcome. I'm glad that you like the forums so much. I'm not sure why these dealers quoted you different residual values for the vehicle that you are interested in. Unlike money factors and lease rates which dealers are often allowed to mark up, dealers are not allowed to alter vehicles' residual values. Perhaps there was some confusion surrounding the terms of the lease that you were interested in or the trim level of the vehicle that you wanted. Either way, I'm glad that everything worked out well for you.

I am looking at an '08 Edge Limited, 13500k miles, 36 month lease....looking for a ballpark as to whether the dealer is full of 'you know what'. Here is what he sent me via email....any opinions would be GREATLY appreciated. My current lease is due and I really need a new vehicle. I like the Edge but I don't want to be taken. Thanks in advance!
 
Selling price: z-plan 30635.65
Residule:43%
Money factor: .25%
Rebates: 1250+500=1750total
The payment came out to 445 per month and a total out of pocket of 550.
The mileage is 13500 per year for 36 months.
Be careful because most of the other dealerships in the area are going
with out side banks that charge disposition fees and other fees to lure
you in and also pick apart you at termination. The normal disposition
fee is around 500. at lease end.
Our lease is a ford red carpet lease no hidden extras!!!!
