Should you lease your new Chevrolet Silverado or Finance it? Great questions! And the answer is.... it depends!! We're here to help, so allow us to explain.
LEASING A CHEVROLET SILVERADO
Leasing is a great option for many reasons. Are you someone who likes to have the latest and greatest? If so, than leasing is right up your alley. With leasing a Chevrolet Silverado you're agreeing to a short term of ownership of the vehicle. Think of it almost like renting but instead of a week or a few days, you're "renting" the truck for two to three years. But unlike most rental cars, there is a cap on the mileage you can put on the car each year. Usually 10,000-15,000 miles is the limit with a charge for any mileage over that you might drive during your time of short term ownership. So if you don't drive all over the place every day, leasing is a fantastic options for you.
If you plan to use your truck more for personal use rather than work or business then leasing a brand new Chevrolet Silverado is a great choice. Leasing a Chevrolet Silverado is perfect if you're the type who needs a a larger vehicle to haul a family around and occasionally hit the home improvement store on the weekends. Or you like to take friends or family camping over long weekends when the weather in New England decides to cooperate. If this sounds like you, then leasing is perfect.
Plus, when you lease a Chevrolet Silverado you'll never have to worry about having the latest bells and whistles because when your lease it up, you can get a brand new one with the features you skipped out on the last time around. So if you went with one trim level but realize a year later you wished you had went with the next trim level up, there's no need to fret, because before you know it, your lease is up and you can get a brand new one. Sometimes you can even trade your lease in earlier than expected.
At Northwest Hills Chevrolet, we are always on the lookout for quality pre owned vehicles to showcase in our inventory. We know Chevrolet Silverado lessees in and around Waterbury Connecticut tend to take excellent care of their vehicles. For this reason, we like to extend to our loyal customers from just outside our area something called a lease pull ahead. Typically within 90 days of your lease being up, you can come in to Northwest Hills Chevrolet in Torrington and trade up to a brand new Chevrolet Silverado. And in many cases you can practically swap keys with us. That's right, it's possible to get into a brand new Silverado for the same payment as you had before.
But what if you really love your Chevrolet Silverado and don't want to return it? You want to keep the truck for the foreseeable future. Every lease has whats called a buy out. At the end of the lease term, you can buy the car outright. The price of the buy out is stated and agreed upon when you decide to lease the vehicle in the first place. Your sales person will show you what you will owe on the truck if you decide to buy it and how to best pay for it.
FINANCING YOUR CHEVROLET SILVERADO
If leasing is like renting, financing is the complete opposite. When you finance a brand new Chevrolet Silverado you are paying to own the vehicle outright. While sometimes it simply comes down to preference, there are many reasons financing makes better sense than leasing, especially when it comes to pickup trucks. One thing we see a lot of the the fact that when someone adds a Chevrolet Silverado into their life, they tend to grow very fond of their truck and want to hold onto it for a long time. There's a pride of ownership with Chevrolet trucks that you really don't see in other brands.
The biggest reason financing makes more sense than leasing is if you'll be using your brand new Chevrolet Silverado throughout the Waterbury Connecticut area for work or business. If your truck is more than just a people mover, then financing it makes a lot of sense. If your new truck will become a work truck, then its likely you'll acquire some dings and dents over the course of ownership. Don't look at this as a bad thing, think of it as a way of showing other truck owners that you're putting in the work and your Chevrolet Silverado is your workhorse. Returning a leased truck with dings and dents can add up quickly when it comes time to bring it back, but when you finance your truck, you're likely doing it with the intentions of owning the truck. Therefore if you get some dings and dents, you can take your time fixing them.
As we mentioned above, when you lease a Chevrolet Silverado, there is a mileage allowance and anything over will result in added fees when it comes time to return the truck. Not the case with a financed vehicle. This is another reason why, and in many cases why financing makes the most sense. If you have a long commute each day, or you're simply on the road a lot, then financing is the way to go. Why? Well, you could lease a car with 20,000 miles per year, but it's going to be far more expensive. That is because at the end of the lease term, we, the dealership, are going to turn around and put your lease return vehicle into our used inventory once through the shop. Lease returned vehicles with 30k or even 36k miles are far easier to sell than ones with 60k miles. So if you drive a lot, consider financing your brand new Chevrolet Silverado.
