Absolutely agreed. Any lease/buy at the moment is already horrible and giving me nightmares.
I am currently leasing a Volvo XC90 (lease end in October) I am only paying $560/month for this (MSRP was 72K). I thought about purcasing it for $41K (payoff amount) but family growing and with two car seats the mid-size SUV feels so cramped.
I thought about just leasing a minivan but it was way worse than purchase.
Also, getting a Sienna/Odyssey is not feasible either at the moment due to all dealer markups and looong wait times for new orders (needed a car by October)
Good thinking but honestly not really a fan of Honda Odyssey so also being AWD helped us to choose the Pacifica. I know FCA reliability is a big question mark but I do not plan to keep it more than warranty period.
We enjoy our 2021 pacifica limited phev. No issues at all, comfortable, reliable only oil changes and rotations. I wish it had the stow and go but the battery pack is not a bad compromise. With the ev and gas avg is about 35mpg. Same setup as 4xe.
Do you live in a fairly cold place? I was concerned about the hybrid cold performance during harsh winters in midwest. Also, most dealers did not want to budge on price at all for hybrid limiteds. Have not been able to find any Pinnacle Hybrids
