Pros and cons of leasing a car

Kristina

So my husband likes to change his car every few years and is using baby #2 as an excuse for a truck with a bigger back seat. He is looking at some trucks now which he can trade his Jeep for as an even trade but wants to get a newer one since he likes the changes they made to it. He doesn’t like the idea of having to pay for a newer mode since it depreciates so quickly. His work is 5 miles round trip from our house and once a month for a week he doesn’t even use his truck since his work gives him a truck to use. So miles won’t really be an issue since most stuff we do is local and hes has this car for a year and half and put 6000 miles on it and it’s because I was using it for a month when my car was getting repaired. If he leases I know he will have a payment monthly but it looks like 200 to 300 a month depending what model and we would get money back for his Jeep if we trade it in or sell it privately. Does anyone have any experience with leasing and love or hate it?
