    Yes, most of those lease programs have a mileage maintenance agreement that's charged out every month or quarter on miles run on top of the regular monthly payment.

    The way I've seen them structured is on a stair stepped basis. Going up every year. Start at 0.06 per mile 1st year, 0.07 2nd year and so on.

    Btw, I'm not crazy about the lease option programs with full maintenance agreements.

    If you can afford to buy new with a decent interest rate, you're better off as a one man operation to go that route, in my opinion.

    Yea I've always own a truck. I just want to try something different. Like drop it off and go home so whatever needs fixed can be fixed by the time I'm back. Also the security of knowing roadside is just right at your fingertip.

    Maybe it's because I just haven't experienced it yet. Just something different I guess.

    2270 and .06 a mile is not bad. How many years are they putting you on the hook for?

    I’ve got them down to 3 years. Otherwise not a bad deal.

    This is for a brand new truck? No down payment?
