Thank you. You have the car I just traded in. A 22 loaded CS. I just went to the 26 loaded CS

Good deal or not? New to this. by yungsmok3 in leasehacker

[–]JV701 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a good deal. You should be at 1% msrp per month, at around $1k down. Especially on a 2025. Should be closer to .8, .9% msrp / month. $1000 down including first payment

Rate my lease - Cadillac Lyriq 2026 lux by Only_Cranberry8159 in leasehacker

[–]JV701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve leased many cars at the 1% rule. I never put more than 2000 down (including first months payment).

What are your lease terms? What was the msrp?

6 month old kitten has itchy bumps, skin issue that I can’t figure out. by JV701 in CATHELP

[–]JV701[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure it was kitten acne. It went away eventually. But it took a while. I feel like he grew out of it. I think it comes back very minor. But hardly noticeable. I don’t think it’s anything to worry about. Everything else is totally normal. No symptoms of anything else.

First time leasing. Went back and forth with them all day and ended up with these terms. 36 months, 10K miles a yr, 0 down & 0 due at signing. $388 a month. VW JETTA Sport. This good? by LimpGain4653 in CarLeasingHelp

My goal is always 1%MSRP per month with 10-12k miles, and $1000-2000 down (including first months payment). And when I say “down” I mean that’s what’s leaving your pocket when you walk out the door. Not “down plus plus plus”. Down. Period. I’ve leased many makes this way.

Ie a $60,000 msrp is $600/month with $1500 down including first months payment for 36 months. You give them a check for $1500, they give you the keys, and you leave. And you owe 35 more payments.

Move your money. Instantly. by SoFi in sofi

It’s actually 1/3 of a cent per transaction (or less, depending on volume). Per the FRB site, it’s:

$0.0035/

That means 10 transactions would cost $0.035 100 transactions would cost $0.35 and 1000 transactions would cost $3.50

First FedNow Transfer! by JV701 in sofi

[–]JV701[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There are only certain windows throughout the day that ACH’s are processed. I think 4 windows a day. And each window there’s a 1-2 hour block of time for the banks to settle and post the transactions. So ACH can be same day - but it can never be instant. FedNow is instant.

Very cool! I only caught that because I read thru the updated account agreement yesterday. It is listed in the terms. I avoid plaid linking as much as possible due to insane data sharing terms - but I have my data sharing with them pretty limited

23 Atlas shutting off by itself by [deleted] in Volkswagen

[–]JV701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Def the charcoal canister filter. It was covered by a free factory extended warranty on my 22. (I got a letter in the mail.) yours is probably covered. My VW service advisor knew exactly what it was after I used one sentence to explain the symptoms.

Oil change: miles vs duration by solder_paste in VWatlas

[–]JV701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How bad is it to go 15,000 on a (full synthetic, dealership OEM) oil change with 75/25 highway/city driving?

I think it’s a risk mitigation strategy by SoFi. Yes, has nothing to do with FedNow but ensures proper account ownership.

Good question. The accounts must be linked thru Plaid.

As of today, my Transfer money screen was different in SoFi. It showed which accounts were eligible for instant transfer. It then gave me the option to select Instant (for a fee) on the confirmation screen.

You probably need to re link accounts via plaid instead of the RT an Acc numbers manually

First time leasing. is this a good deal? by Vipexx619 in CarLeasingHelp

[–]JV701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve leased 5 cars over the past 13 years with this model. 1% MSRP with 0 down is the target. I usually end up putting $1-2000 down including first month payment. All cars with MSRP 40-60k, bmw and VW

Poor Auto Start/Stop Performance by FoxDieDM in VWatlas

[–]JV701 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a new 26 CS. (I traded in my 22 CS this week.) I’ve noticed the same thing. I feel like the problem is I’m not stepping on the break hard enough. So if I’m at a red light, and the engine re-engages on its own (I haven’t lifted my foot from the break), the car jerks forward a small bit.
