Jeep Grand Cherokee Lease Questions

• Terrible rates

  Written by: ineedacar2 on Dec 13, 2010 5:09:29 PM

  I'm looking at leasing/buying one but these rates/residuals are just terrible. My 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited (43k MSRP) was 15k at $499/30 months and $1500 down (Guess that's why Chrysler Financial is no more). Dealers in NJ want $700+ and more down... Crazy! I may settle for the Infiniti FX35 and miss the remote start/automatic hi-beams and panoramic roof.

As for the other fees....they are pretty standard...$149 filing fee sounds like a dealer processing fee....usually on most car deals. Good Luck!
