Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
It's time, I'm sad to say. Our 22 yr. old Camry has reached it's full potential. Hate to say good bye, so many wonderful memories. Will likely donate, we need a safe car for long distance travel.
I've searched CarMax, CarFax and Carguru. I read in a recent post, taking the list price and send that price to several used car dealers and see if they can beat the price. We want a used Camry with <50K miles.
DB brother mentioned leasing. He leased a car in FL, where he lives. Said they pay for oil changes and repairs. Lease for 3 years at $130/month. I've always been against leasing a car, but maybe a good idea.
Anyone have car leasing experience?
Sure, plenty of older people choose to lease to transform transportation into just another monthly expense.
I leased a (~$38,000 MSRP) Tacoma for fun since I never had a truck before to replace a 20+ year old worn-out sedan.
Zero money down, all taxes/fees (your brother probably put money down & paid the latter upfront) rolled into the monthly payment of ~$350month, only 1st month's payment due at signing.
Won't keep it at the end (residual too high) but will lease again if I can get close to the same deal.
