I'd be at 23,000 in 8 months if I drove to work 5 days a week instead of 1... 71 mile one way, glad I drive in once. Those have to be all highway, there's no way these stock tires last 25,000 miles city driving. I think federal reimbursement rate is like 53 cents a mile, that's a nice chunk to get reimbursed or claim on taxes lol.

Well my lease is a little different than a typical normal lease, Think as it more of like a rental car, provided by like enterprise or hertz. etc. So not that much money down at all! Monthly payment are $559-600

Im still in the vehicle as of matter of fact i have about one more week with it. I believe I have to turn it back in on March 31st. I think now Im at 26200k miles since I posted this lol

You can have a lease terms over 25k miles, it all just depends on how much you want to pay for. My step-father has a lease with 22.5k miles a year. After some point it makes sense to finance versus lease.

I will be amazed if my tires last me 15k miles. I tend to drive fairly aggessively, though. I also enjoy seeing how much of a burnout I can do when getting going at a stop light late at night on my way home from hockey games.
