As many of you may have noticed, the wife and I picked up a 2013 Pilot last month. So far, we are very pleased with the SUV and have no complaints. Plenty of cargo room and extremely comfortable. Our sale price ended up about $180 more than what I was hoping for, but under the circumstances (very limited availability), I wasn’t about to make a big fuss about it. Overall, a very good lease,  specially considering the 1% drop in residual and increase in money factor this month compared to last.

If you look at Nov/Dec numbers and compare them with this month’s numbers, you will noticed some unusual drops and increases in residual value and some drops and increases in money factors as well. The most notable drop is on the Odyssey from .00155 to .00064 while the most notable increase is on the Pilot, which goes from .00022 to .00073.
