If you're in St. Louis and trying to decide between buying or leasing a Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, or Ram vehicle, there are benefits to both options. Leasing could be a good choice if you want to upgrade in a few years or don't plan to drive too much, while buying may be a better fit if you want to own your vehicle outright or use it frequently.

No matter which option you choose, our auto finance experts at the Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram dealership in St. Louis can assist you in creating a plan that suits your lifestyle. If you have any inquiries, feel free to contact Glendale CDJR today.

Benefits of Buying vs Leasing

Below, we have outlined several specific examples that illustrate the difference between buying vs. leasing a new vehicle from our Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram dealership in St. Louis.
        
  1. A driver seeking a great family vehicle that will serve them for years to come may decide to purchase a new Chrysler Pacifica minivan. Since they plan on using it years into the future, including family trips and carpool shifts, they can enjoy freedom from mileage restrictions that would come with leasing. The down payment will likely be higher up front, and the vehicle will depreciate over time, but when this customer has paid off their auto-financing contract, they are free to trade in their vehicle whenever they wish.
    2.     
  2. A driver who enjoys upgrading their vehicle every few years, values having the latest in cutting-edge features, and is seeking a new pickup truck to confidently commute short distances and get work done might consider leasing a new Ram 1500 from our dealership. Insurance premiums may be higher throughout the lease than during financing, but this driver will likely benefit from lower monthly payments, and damages are typically covered under a warranty through the duration of the lease.
    3.     
  3. Are you an off-roading enthusiast who wants to put plenty of miles on a trusty Jeep Wrangler? If you want to trick out your Jeep with a host of customized parts and accessories, and view your ultra-capable Jeep as a long-term investment for plenty of future adventures, you may want to purchase your new Jeep model on a plan that works for your budget. Though the monthly payments may be higher than with leasing, you can have full creative control over your SUV, and don't need to fret about impacts that go above normal wear and tear when you hit the trails.
