When you buy a car, you’re stuck with it. You miss out on technology that’s come on the scene since your purchase, you’re always driving something old, and as soon as you drive your car from the dealer’s lot, it depreciates in value in a big way. Then, when it’s time to sell it, you’re in the unenviable position of having to sell an old car that lacks all those gadgets people want. But when you lease, you can always be driving a new model of car with all the great technology most people want. You’ll have no worries about having to sell it; you simply “trade up.” Yes, leasing is a smart way to go.
