I would suggest not paying taxes up front or putting any money down on a lease. If the vehicle is stolen, declared a total loss, etc., that money is down the drain. Total cost over the lease will remain pretty much the same, except for interest on the down payment which shouldn't be much. You just have to get over the natural mindset that "if the monthly payment is higher, I am paying more" (dealers love doing this to show a low monthly payment). I put zero down on leases. If purchasing, then it's a very different analysis.

 

 

Idk if xan is different on leasing vs buying but for what its worth my xplan price on a Navigator Reserve with everything except the TVs was just $5k more.

 

My understanding is that X plan vehicle price is the same regardless of lease/purchase, but the X-Plan pricing is different for Ford and Lincoln (Ford is invoice minus 0.4% of invoice + $275 and Lincoln is invoice plus 0.6% of invoice + $275).

 

Also, the pricing of the Expeditions is what made me look at the Navigator as the price difference wasn't much when the Expedition is fully loaded so your observation is spot on.

Correct. There could be additional incentives tied to the X plan lease but the acquisition cost of the vehicle would be the same either way.
