At least with buying a car, when all is said and done, you have something, in-hand, to show for it...
Is it the boredom factor? Automobile longevity? I'm not trying to criticize the OP. It's just something that makes me wonder...

Also, you talk as if it's a house or an investment. It's a car... it depreciates EXTREMELY quickly.
If you want to be economical, yeah.. leasing is not the best. If you plan on keeping a car for a 5-10 years, then obviously you want to buy it. But if you're looking to have a new car every few years, then buying a car is a bad choice.
Just like buying a house is NOT always the best choice... depends on your needs... people need to think more for themselves and stop being so brainwashed.
