Leasing

Is anybody leasing ? If so what are the monthly payments? Ball Park figure is OK. Just curious

That would be interesting to know. I personally have never leased a vehicle simply because of the mileage I put on every year.

Don't think it will work

I've owned 4 Super Duties. Leasing is not a good option. Not enough residual value in most cases.

Unless the manufacturer is inflating the residuals the payments will be quite strong. You have to be careful that you don't get hit at sticker with a lease that isn't subsidized by the manufacturer. If Ford isn't advertising leasing on a SD, you probably don't want to lease one.

You can figure the payments yourself if you can get:
Acquisition (cap) cost
Residual value
Interest
Monthly Lease Payment Formula. Understand Money Factor, Residual Value, Cap Cost. Do Your Own Calculations!

Good luck.
