RE: Lease or Buy, Long Term, Short Term

I'm hoping to keep the Intimidator forever. The reason I got rid of the '01 because I wanted the L67 engine. That's the ONLY reason I got rid of it.
We now have 4 in our stable: '82 Olds Regency 2dr coupe, 65,000mi, '99 Silverado Z7i Sportside, 181,000mi, '04 Intimidator SS, 69,000mi, and Lucy, the '07 Solstice GXP, 2,000mi. Just gave away a beater '88 Isuzu Trooper II, 165,000mi. Not going to get rid of ANY of them.

RE: Lease or Buy, Long Term, Short Term

I normally would trade my cars in before they reached 40k miles with the way I drive is only 2.5 - 3 years. I will be keeping my 06 until 2010 when I will probably be purchasing my camaro (Depends on how comfortable the seating is). I only drive 10 - 12k miles a year so I should probably be leasing but there are some terms on leasing I dont agree with so I always purchase w/gap.

What don't you agree with... like NO MODIFICATION! The vehicle MOST be returned in the state in which it was taken. All that means is... You have all the mods put on at the time of lease... (Window Tint, Spoilers, Sound Systems, Wheels & Tires, Graphics). Sorry... No Engine Mods...
