Re: Do you lease or buy cars?
We buy - neither of us are fans of the never-ending car payment. DH's is up next year but we're tossing around the idea of paying it off sooner just to get rid of it (the payment). Then we'll probably sell my car and do it al over again

Re: Do you lease or buy cars?
I like getting a new car every 2-3 years so this works out best for us. We have three cars at our house, and one will always be a lease for that reason.

Re: Do you lease or buy cars?
I only buy cars. I think leasing cars is a waste of $$$. I like to have something for all the $$$ that I shell out each month for my payments!!

Re: Do you lease or buy cars?
We lease. I like a new car every few years. I also like the new technology and new creature comforts that come out.
By the end of the 3 years I am so ready for a new car.
I like renting things that depreciate and buying things that appreciate.
eta: also, no downpayment makes me happy and I can afford more car leasing that I could buying.
I would never keep a car long enough to not have payments.
That's just me.

Re: Do you lease or buy cars?
I buy. If I were to lease, I would feel like I was only renting the car, and I don't want that. I can't wait until my car payments are done.

Re: Do you lease or buy cars?
We buy. I don't think I would feel like I "owned" the car if I leased it. If I buy the car, I know it's mine.

Re: Do you lease or buy cars?
BOTH
we bought our truck (Excursion), but bigger engines tend to hold up better over time.
we lease our other vehicles. DH puts a lot of miles on our other cars and usually by the 3rd year, something is breaking or they look like crap.

while I'm sure it's nice to have a new car every 3 years, I don't want a never ending car payment.
I buy
me too! Just a few thousand more and I will own my car free and clear!  I have had it for 3 years and still totally love it

very true. I have had no car payment for over 4 yrs now and LOVE it! yes my car is 8 yrs old, but I still love it. I feel like every day that I drive it, it's money back in my pocket.

Re: Do you lease or buy cars?
Buy.
Financed for 3 months only to get $3K off, then paid it off in full. I hate having car payments and I hate paying interest.
I plan on keeping my car for at least 7-10 years so it works out for us.
