Right, it ended end of 2024 yet he still asks in every video.
I think you answered your own question; his social team probably has a bunch of videos and his asking about Amex or the Small Business Fleet and ABA Affinity (aka the @djrabbi special) is just because of the timing of the video being filmed/edited/dropped. Can you imagine @djrabbi if he also became a realtor in Montana? Insane.
He seems well aware Amex went away.
This guy isn’t advertising great deals but I am not seeing $800 a month for 80k GLEs. It is around that price for $65-$70ish GLEs with mostly 7.5k miles. Of course pre-tax also.
Even the brokers on here are mostly going to be around $1,000 if you went up to a $80k GLE 350 with 12k miles per year and tax included.

You could get GLE63 for $13xx few months back

My FIL is a realtor so I am sure I can get it still.

Honestly why doesn’t @BENZORNOTHING start a YouTube and post each deal on instagram
Dale should tag Bowtie in each caption and all of LH start tagging bow tie in the comments
Kinda like Doug demuro comments
Some of the deals Dale posted were spectacular in great specs
Dude also threw in free shipping on some deals lol
Also his process is extremely efficient and fast

Often times his clients are rolling in negative equity in one way shape or form. Whether it be getting out of their current MB lease early, rolling in over miles, or trading in non MB vehicles with neggy eggy. So, it’s sometimes hard to get a true sense of the “deal.” Not to say he’s the cheapest game in town but he does seem to be realistic…i.e. going over miles doesn’t just “dissapear” if you lease another MB…etc
I’m seeing 700 a month inc tax for a $75k msrp GLE450 hybrid, add another 5k msrp and 12k miles it should still be under 900.
Keep in mind his numbers are for longer leases…36 or even 48 months.
Yeah that’s why I posted videos without negative equity. The videos with negative equity are wild. In one video someone had $5k in negative equity and he said a C300 would be 1k a month with that rolled in.
That a better deal but also a different car with a different power train.
Benzornothing is around $950 pre tax and 7,500 miles per year for a 70k GLE350 (link from his Google doc).
I’m not debating someone should definitely take the GLE450 instead. But have to compare apples to apples.
Yeah, I saw that. I can’t fathom $1k/month for a C class. In my mind that’s S class money!

That’s just crazy considering a GLS is nearly the same price… I don’t get why leases are so bad on the base GLE.
That is why leasing is so challenging for the average car buyer and even the average car salesman. Neither group understands the disconnect between MSRP/sales price and possible monthly payment.
I know I had a Volvo dealer ghost me just because they didnt bother to even run my proposed numbers, which would have showed them an aggressive but not unreasonable offer. I know because when I went back to service my vehicle at the dealership I talked to the salesman about it.
1860 a month 10k 36m on a Macan EV with 6k down. Guy literally told me that Porsche has too much equity at the end for them to do a cheap lease payment…on an EV. Obviously left after that. Ive gotten a better attitude at a Lamborghini dealership which actually sells special cars.

“…$737/mo payment including taxes and fees with JUST your 1st month’s payment due at signing.”
And if I decide to put money down, my payment will be lower, of course.
A steal for a mildly loaded 25 X1 loaner.

The more equity they have (higher residual) the better the payment. How is this guy anywhere near a dealership?
Doug Horner vs Dale Acelar… see who can get @li8625 to drive a Benz instead of his trash M Lites or a rust bucket Porsche that doesn’t have sport chrono or park assist. LH needs to make the competition happen.
