leasing can be a very smart move. if you're not realistic about the miles you will drive you can get fucked hard. with no grease.

if you're gonna put 25K per year on it, the best thing you can do is to lease it. Just make sure you're getting a 25k/year lease and you'll be fine. the payment should still be less than a 60 month buy...or maybe the same....but at the end of 3 years, you walk away from that 75k mile car. the guy that bought it has to pray that they are breaking even against their payoff. or keep it and pay for the repairs/maintenance.
