Depends on what your goal is. If it is to always have a vehicle that is new, under warranty, etc. then leasing may be the smart move. If the costs/savings is your motivation then it probably will not be. Each person has there own reason for leasing or purchasing and what seems like a great move for one may not be for the other. Just like some folks are only comfortable investing in CDs or bonds while others are 100% growth, neither is necessarily wrong. We all have our own comfort level with risk, spending, etc. Sometimes paying more is actually the least expensive, maybe not in terms of dollars but in terms of discomfort or stress.
