    Would the federal government ev tax credit be considered a taxed incentive or untaxed with regards to leasing? Would I be correct to assume the by state rebate to be an untaxed incentive? I ask since I plan on Leasing the Audi Q5e which qualifies for both incentives and I would like 🤞🏻🤞🏻 to have these incentives added on top of a 10-15% off msrp. Any advice is greatly appreciated👍🏼👍🏼

    I've been leasing for years. Here's a quick way to do it and it's 95% accurate. Look at the msrp or sticker prices then deduct aprox 54 to 56% off of the sticker price. Then divide that over the number of months your leasing

      So, im looking at a vw cross sport atlas. Msrp is 43 thousand. They have 500 off plus another 500 off for xyz reason,..so, its 42. I want to lease it for 36 months at 7500 miles per year. -and zero down, . Subtracting 56percent from 42 thousand is about 20 thousand. 20 thousand divided by 3 years is about 7 thousand. Thats around 500 bucks a month. Is this a good deal ?

    In 2016 I decided to lease a car to try it before buying. When the time came to return or buy, The leasing company was forcing me to go back to the dealer for an option to buy. Of course the dealer wanted $2k for this to happen. So I returned the car. Never purchased again from ANY dealer in Florida ever. Yet, many people can just send a check to leasing company (i.e. US Bank) and purchased the leased car from the leasing company. How can consumers make sure they can purchase the car they leased when their lease ends?

I’ve got my sights on Tesla mod Y 2021 but waiting for Biden to announce the EV incentives . If he goes for the $7500 federal tax at POS, I’ll upgrade to the LR Mod Y. Otherwise I’m stuck with the standard, without any of the interior upgrades and about 160 real fwy miles . Keep up the wonderful videos

    After studying all this calculator bs I am going to try and just do it. Honestly my last deal was crazy good. I know the market now is a sellers market and I can tell because I have less car dealers responding or chasing me the way they did previously. 3 years ago I was able to lease a brand new chevy trax 2020 with on $300 down and monthly $209 10k miles for 39 months. I traded in the old 2016 leased trax for the new trax. I really feel the trick is to go back and forth between dealers and tell them the other one offered you a better deal until you get what you want. I also think this time around is harder because chevy has no 2023 only a 2024 so there is shortage of the newest model.

      The EV federal tax credit goes to the bank, not the lessee. However, the bank (generally, a captive auto lender) may choose to pass a portion, or all, of the tax credit to the lessee in the form of a rebate. Research the manufacturer lease incentives for a particular model, and add that to the "Taxed Incentives" field.

    Look at that same camry after you return the lease. Its selling for about 75% of its original value on the dealership lot.
    Car companies intentionally list the residual value low like 53% to make you pay more per month in depreciation cost. Then you return it after the lease ends and the dealer sell it for around 75% of the original value. Scam
