A lease is a depreciation financing program. It only makes sense if you want to change your car every 3 years.

I think if they called it a Deprecation Financing Program they wouldn't get so many customers.

I think they'd have about the same number of customers -- most people I know who lease their car just want to drive something new and not put much effort in to maintaining it. They don't really car about the long term financial downside.
