I hear you, you are probably right, in the same way someone making its own wine is saving a lot of money despite the product tasting like shit.

That's hardly /thread, that's just your opinion.

The down payment is only to lower monthly payment, it's not required.

4. You never have to worry about being upside down on your auto loan. (A big problem if you buy late model and log a lot of miles)

That's like, the first thing I do when I buy a new car. Take it home, drop in a small block. Doesn't matter what it is. Mustang GT? Small block. Minivan? Small block. Mitsubishi Mirage? You bet that sucka's getting a small block.

GAP insurance.

#4 I worry about a little. I plan on paying off my loan early but if I get into an accident that totals the car before I do so I may be out a significant amount of cash.

Also, with most leases you don't have to worry about maintenance or service as it is included. You always get a car at its best age with the options and color you want.

Don't you mean leased popular post?

Reasons for leasing (as long as you aren't Jalopnik's typical 19 year old commenter)

Suckas... I got mine on craigslist and set it up myself. I've got about $1200 in it altogether so I did pretty well.

not only am I jealous of the lift, but those things to put oil in are really practical

I have also transformed the way I work on my car.

Drag radials and racing fuel. Although, maybe the Tesla was on race electricity.

Driving at 85-90 I think is a good reasonable speed, your are not going balls out fast, but is still fast enough to keep you from boring to death.

I can assure you that speeders don't give a f**k about reckless driving citations, otherwise they wouldn't be speeding. So having it at 80mph rather than 85mph will make no difference.

sorry bout that, just be sure to not hog the left lane and I'll give a friendly wave as I drive past.

Even worse, time travel is still illegal.

Meanwhile in Texas...
