Some people don't like the idea of leases. That's fair. But there are certainly advantages to them. I like having a different car every 3-5 years. Have to do your research to see if said lease makes sense.

Hyundai is a perfect example of a car manufacturer just wanting to move product. Dealerships hardly make a thing off their cheaper leases, but get it back in unit bonuses at the end of the month/year.
