Ask yourself these helpful questions to decide if leasing is right for you!
What are the Benefits of Buying a Jeep?
When you buy a new or used Jeep, you have total control over what you do with it. Once your Jeep financing is paid off, you own the car for the lifetime of the vehicle.
What are the Benefits of Leasing a Jeep?
When you lease a Jeep, you don’t own the car. Since you are borrowing the vehicle from the dealership, you have to be careful how many miles you put on it, and you have to be more mindful about wear and tear.
The upside? Your down payment and recurring monthly payments will almost always be significantly cheaper than buying. Additionally, you typically have the option to buy your car at the end of your term, or trade in for the newest Jeep model at the end of every agreement.
How Many Miles Can I Put on a Leased Jeep?
The number of accumulated miles allowed on your leased car varies by agreement, so it’s a good idea to factor in how much you plan on using your leased Jeep. Will you be using it just for commuting, or do you regularly take road trips and plan outdoor adventures?
After you’ve got an estimate of how many miles you think you’ll put on the vehicle, bring those numbers to the dealership and speak with one of our expert Jeep dealers.
Can I Take My Leased Jeep Off Roading?
Jeep models are built to be durable and exploring life’s unexpected paths with a Jeep is half the fun of owning one. That said, when you lease any vehicle, you are expected to return it in as excellent condition as possible at the end of the term. If you plan to go extreme with off-road adventures, you may want to consider buying over leasing.
Do I Have the Finances to Lease?
Let our Finance experts at Zeigler Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM help answer that question. Use our payment calculator to estimate what your monthly responsibility would be over a three to five-year period, and bring that budget to your appointment.
We look forward to answering your leasing questions and handing you the keys to your very first Jeep SUV.
