2010-11 Ford Lease Rates – September 2010

logo_fordMy Take: The last time I posted lease rates from Ford was back in March 2009 and they didn’t look anywhere near as good as what these look like now. I’m actually quite impressed with the 2011 Ford Edge. The auto magazines have given it pretty decent reviews so it seems promising. The lease rates are not too horrible, but certainly not as good as other luxury brands. I am a bit baffled as to why Ford would price the Edge around the same price as other Luxury crossovers. A Ford SEL FWD with all the bells and whistles costs just as much as an Acura RDX Tech. Which one would you take? I would take the RDX since Acura has arguably the best lease program around and has a longer warranty. Here’s some food for thought, if a “middle-of-the-road” Edge costs approximately $36k, how much is do you think the Lincoln MKX is gonna run? A heck more than it should.

09 Ford Flex Lease Rate for December 2008

My Take: The Holiday Season is upon us! I hope most of you got your shopping out of the way by now. If not, good luck! As you already know, I will be out of the country visiting family for two weeks, returning January 10th. Until then, I leave you with the lease rates for the Ford Flex, which will be my last post of the year. I know, this isn’t exactly the best lease rate to leave you with, but this is all I could dig up before leaving. The good news is that there is $1000 rebate on this car, so going below invoice is certainly possible (it should shave about $30 off your monthly payment). I do have to hand it to Ford though, they have done a decent job positioning themselves to weather the economic storm. I can’t say the same for GM or Chrysler. GM should have sold off some of their divisions but you already know what they say about old dogs…Anyway, this is an old rant for the new year, so enjoy the Holiday Season!!! Feel free to post on the forums if you have questions, I know B sometimes pops in to share his knowledge and knows a lot about leasing cars. If I find internet connection, I might answer a few questions of my own if time permits. See you all next year and Happy Leasing!

October 2008 Lease Rate for 09 Ford Flex

My Take: How Ford calls the Flex a crossover simply baffles me. I am thinking it’s more like a minivan with optional AWD. Anyway, it doesn’t look like a bad time to jump into a Ford Flex right now. The residual value is low, but there’s $2500 in incentives available and the money factor is about .000625 or 1.5%, which is pretty low. This is for a 09 model mind you. You won’t hear me say this very often, but you may want to pay a visit to your Ford dealer if you’ve had your eye on the Flex. My sister actually likes this car because it has a minifridge. LOL. Priorites…Please keep in mind that I take the $2500 rebate into consideration when I estimate the payments below. If it looks lower than what you are getting, that’s probably because you didn’t include the rebate.
