Hey guys, I have a pending lease agreement with a local Mazda dealer here in NY for the CX90 PHEV premium. I was told first month and DMV due at signing.
MSRP: $55,850
I was told residual was 58. I can’t get the numbers calculating to $925. Am I doing something wrong?
What’s your reason for trading in the vehicle with $6500 in negative equity? If its a lease, can you stick it out until its over and turn it in then? If its a purchase, do you really need to get out of it?
I’m torn myself tbh. We’re currently in an F-150 right now. With a 2 year old and a couple of dogs, grandparents coming places with us, an SUV is becoming a bit more realistic. Do we NEED to do it, no, but we have 4.5 years left on loan and I can’t see waiting until the end to do it.
Actually sounds like you need a minivan [Many of us have been at that stage. It lasts for ~10-15 years, then you stop traveling with the kids as much because they drive themselves and you start looking for smaller vehicles.]
