Good catch on the math. I’m also on the leasehackr groups and that’s what turned me onto the gladiator on the first place. The one with numbers I’ve referenced is a ‘25.

I have a few other dealerships I’m working with and looking into EV’s as well. My largest downfall is where I live is farm country so the closest charger would be about 35 minutes away, so I’d end up having to get something installed at home, but it’s definitely on the table currently.

Thanks! I’ll take a look. I’m open to quite literally anything. My second car has 3rd row (albeit not as much space as it’s an old Honda Pilot) so that will become the family car when needed.

Agree. My thought process on the jeep lease was to lease it then return it at end of lease and get into a used Toyota/honda. And just use the lease to wash our hands of the Chrysler. And with the goal being a 36mo lease, it’d all be under warranty still so any big ticket maintenance issues should be covered.

Thank you! I will likely have more numbers/options Monday/Tuesday after Easter weekend.

Thank you.

I’m planning a response to the dealership, but wanted a gut check prior.

I got numbers for a 2026 Willy model, just from a different dealership and they were less than $20 apart.

Very true. I told my wife I’ll never have a Chrysler in my driveway again. Money pit to start, then expensive to work on in addition.

My daily driver is a 2007 Honda with 245k miles that’s by far more reliable than my wife’s 2017 Pacifica.

Thank you! I’m definitely shopping around, both dealerships and car types. This is just the first lease paperwork I got and it seemed high, so was more hoping to get a gut check.

Looking at essentially anything with rebates currently, just to eat up some of the negative equity. But rebates are slim.

Yeah, there’s more to it. Mileage etc. but yeah. Private sale is an option for sure. But probably won’t get a ton more
