We bought (or are still buying) our van, however I am leasing my truck.
When I graduated from college in '99, I bought a '93 Ford Ranger. Two years later, we put a new engine in it. Then it was the water pump. Then it was.... you get the picture. I decided I didn't want to go through that again, that I would rather get brand new and have it under warranty. Leasing the truck was a good option for me at the time. The payment was better then buying, I am way under my limit on miles, and don't have to worry about expensive repairs.
I have 14 months lef ton my 36 month lease, and I am already trying to decide what to do. I love my truck, but I also love the idea of another brand new vechile. If I don't lease another, I will buy the truck I currently have. I know its history, I know it is low miles, and I can probablly afford used easier then buying new.

) Her lease expired AND she lost her job. Now she has no wheels and no job to use on an application to either buy or lease.
(At the ripe young age of 24). Leasing isn't worth it IMO. Mileage sucks and in the end you have nothing to show for your 3 years of payments.... At least when my car is paid off (in 4 months) I can go trade it in and get $$$ back for it because I own it.....
