DON'T DO IT....been there done that...They got me once, hook, line and sinker...If it sounds to good to be true it probably is...

It was a brilliant idea until I went to turn it in...all the nicks, wear and tear... and mileage got me....

It is one more layer of business who intends to profit from you.  That layer of business has employees, overhead and profit that it needs to make from your lease.

Additionally, unlike borrowing money, leases are not required to disclose the implied interest rate or any equivalents.  That makes comparing it nearly impossible.  When you go to get out of it, you have very few options and it tends to be extremely costly.
