Buying

When you choose to buy a vehicle, you plan to make that vehicle yours forever. This can be a great financial advantage, especially if you plan to keep the car for many years. You can pay for the vehicle in full, or you can pay with a car loan from a bank or credit union. With the loan, you’ll make monthly payments on the vehicle over time to pay it off.


Advantages of Buying a Vehicle


  • Full ownership of the vehicle
  • You can sell or trade your vehicle whenever you want
  • You don’t have a set number of miles you can drive

Disadvantages of Buying a Vehicle


  • There is more chance for depreciation at the point of purchase
  • Higher insurance premiums

Leasing

When you lease a vehicle, you are still making those monthly payments, but you only make them for a certain amount of time or miles. At the end of the lease term, you will return the vehicle and lease a new one, making it a convenient option for those who like to drive the latest models without the hassle of selling a car.

 

Advantages of Leasing a Vehicle


  • You still get the latest features
  • Lower payments
  • Maintenance coverage (check warranty)

Disadvantages of Leasing a Vehicle


  • Miles limit
  • Excess wear-and-tear charges if the vehicle is not taken care of
