leasing vs buying cars

Today, most of people who live in the United States drive cars. A lot of people buy cars, and also a lot of people lease cars. Leasing car and buying car both have many advantages and disadvantages. But I think leasing car has more advantages than buying car, such as easy to change, pay lower payments, and easy to drive latest cars.
First, it is very easy to change cars if people lease cars. The car dealer usually has leasing car plan just about two years. It means that you can change your car which is leasing from a car dealer in every two years. If they buy cars, usually they could not pay off their cars in two years. I have already driven my car about three years, and it is a ten years old car which already had a lot of problems. People lease car has fewer problems than buying cars.
Second, people pay much lower monthly payment if they lease cars. For example, people just pay about two or three hundreds dollar for leasing a car. It is a very good advantage for people who have unsteady jobs. Leasing car is a short term payment which easier than buying car which has three or four years payments.
Finally, people can drive latest cars if they lease a car. Now, car companies change their cars and update or higher technology their cars every year. Leasing cars help car buyers change their cars easily. People will enjoy using new and higher technology cars.
In conclusion, leasing cars has more advantages than buying cars. It help people pay lower, easy to change, and drive the latest cars all the time.

  1. Yes, I do agree that leasing a car is better due to the lower payments and always driving a new car but the disadvantage that I do not like is you always have a car payment as long as you lease. If you buy a car, at least you know in 4-5 years you will be payment free and as long as you keep up with the maintenance, the car will last you for a long time.
