While I do appreciate all the alternative advice, I have considered all of those alternatives. i.e.: driving our northern car down. Paying a driver for Northern car. ($1000++ RT) Using only our F350 Diesel, Shipping our northern car (BTW $1750 round trip). Auto Train ($1300 Round trip ++), No Zip Car convenient to our location. Buying a $5,000 used car. (High Miles, less reliable, sun worn, older, riskier, higher maint. costs). Buying a $10,000 used car.
The question posed here pertains to leasing a car. Only one response addresses the leasing question. Is there anyone that really knows the ins and outs of leasing? And should it be a consideration in this situation?
