FirstWorldProblems N20GT im not sure what numbers you are finding on 4runners or if local dealers are screwing you, but here is just a quick example of april numbers, first pic of trim breakdown. Per Edmunds I see MFs of .00245 and residuals above 70% across the board. Versus on your Atlas, .00049 MF and residuals in the mid 50%s

The problem I have had with these is that they are not in stock anywhere nearby, so I was just using the lease calculator on the Toyota website and the dollars that it was spitting out were pretty damn high, over 650 for a $44,000 truck

Oh no, no no no :( you are gonna get some jacked up overpriced quotes my friend, sorry, just trying to be honest and help. Its why the link I posted has the same truck for 40% less monthly, the brand websites are turrible

Leasehackr forum you can search by make, like the link I posted, and those numbers should be relatively/closely attainable anywhere


Use that to search by make and model and there are discussions by year with residual, MFs and incentives that aren't technically public, but you need to know before walking into a dealer. Thats where I pulled the MF and residuals in my previous post

Here is like exactly what you would want to see- its for March, but a good guideline, not saying these are the best deals but an example-



There are even links on the right side of the spreadsheet that will then show the breakdown of how they are getting those lease numbers, no hidden shenanigans etc

Feel free to PM me if you want to discuss further/specifics, I love to rain-man this kinda stuff and helped out multiple family members and friends on this

Deal’s done. It’s just too much vehicle for the $$ and they worked a great deal, couldn’t pass it up. I ended up buying instead of leasing, the payments were super close. It’s very clear that OEM’s are trying not to lease their SUV’s right now

Those saying I’m gonna be bored etc etc, this is still just an appliance DD that’s meant to be affordable. It’s got all kinds of features that the dad150 didn’t have, tows what I need, it’s all good. Big step up from the Honda and I don’t have the same depreciation concerns as I would with a heep
