With a baby on the way eventually, realized it would probably be necessary to acquire that third row…checking out dealer websites, I don’t see many lease programs for the L’s but typically you guys know better than i do where to look. Are they worth leasing right now? Or should i possibly hold off for a bit?
Side note: I have a 2021 GC Limited with probably 3-4k of equity right now…under the assumption I am on limited time of used car values staying sky high (but could be wrong).
They’re probably one of the cheaper 3 row suv leases, but the numbers aren’t amazing. Somewhere in the $600/mo range for a laredo/altitude is possible through some of the aggressive brokers.
There are some lower trims including Limited available on the lot for upwards of 8% off. Overland, Summit and Summit Reserves are harder to come by and expect to pay close to sticker. The tristate area can be tough so may take a good amount of legwork to track down a deal but definitely possible. May need to look in PA and surrounding states.
It’s great for kids and better than other cars I’ve tried Including X7, Explorer, XC90, and the Highlander. Nice that the 2nd row captain seats easily pivot forward allowing you to get someone in the back with a car seat installed in the 2nd row. My only minor complaint is the lack of car seat anchors in the third row which is odd. Also the Summit and Summit Reserve have a middle console in the 2nd row which somewhat defeats the purpose of captain seats.
Remaining trunk space with 3rd row up is decent vs comparable cars.
I agree with this. There are some on the lots that maybe worth working the dealers for a discount on a 22 . Find a dealer with a few on the lot and 23s on the way. Tell them via email you have a dealer you can order with 9% off. What can they do on an instock. And watch out for mf markup and other fees.
The dealer nearest me has over 20 GCL between instock and inbounds and they’re a midsized dealer
How so? A buddy just signed a great deal on a $52K Limited L 36/10 for $610/month with just first month down in NY no less. 8% off plus lease cash and private $1k bonus cash. $22K for 3 year ownership is decent for today. Telluride will have 3-4% APR plus additional taxes so even if it holds 70% of its value after 3 years, TCO will be about the same for a higher end model assuming you can get it at sticker.
I agree the L at sticker doesn’t make financial sense and the 3rd row is overkill with no children.
dealership or broker? Every broker i’ve spoken too says orders only. I mean hell if i can get a deal similar to that and cash out on my 21 JGC equity i’d heavily consider…i’m paying over $500 for my 21 lease now
