[quote=Anonymous]Permanent relocation? So a permanent need for a vehicle? Math says buy and hold vehicles. Lease only if you want new, and you understand it's not financially optimal. Temporary relocation? Buying may still be worth it, but if it's like a military move where you're in a new place for 3 years then back to DC, then leasing may make sense, that way you have minimal drama when it comes time to move. I'm not a fan of leasing not for the $$ aspect, but for the damage/security deposit aspect. Depending on the dealership, you could see them really scrutinize every single ding, and charge you an unexpected amount at the end of the lease, unless you buy the car out, but then you're buying a damaged used car for probably more than it's worth.[/quote]
