I am in the Tri-State Area and the wife and I are looking for a second vehicle and we are very very new to leasing aka never leased before. We have an Accord but are looking for something with a little extra room for our family and we’re looking at Mid-Sized SUVs. I came across this deal on RODO because it is within our budget and decided to ask the pros here if this is a good deal.

Any help would be appreciated

  1. No one can tell how much you’re paying for the car and how much you’re paying to the govt in taxes and DMV

  2. Research the Highlander trims. Does this have all the features you need?

  3. What have you found by searching the Marketplace and Shared Deals sections for similar vehicles such as the Honda Pilot?

We really need more information to asses the deal. It’s hard to help with just a payment and MSRP.

That said, I am a fan of Rodo, usually the deals they post are average to above average, and I would say this falls into the average category. You can look into a local broker, like @Jrouleau426 - to get a sense of his pricing and compare w/ Rodo. I don’t see his October data, but in Sept the L trim was under $320/mo.

So making all these assumptions and comparing monthlies, it seems like the Rodo deal is maybe $1000 high. You can use this info to try and make a better offer via Rodo, or head over to the broker and take the other deal.

Sign it if you like it. It’s a good deal on an L. I’d pay $100/mo for an xle hybrid. Prob save $50/mo in gas, and get way more features.
