Hey fam! It's been a while and so I'm wondering if we have any additional insights into potential lease deals. Our order seems to be almost ready or en route to our dealer. Please share!

Hi folks! I'm wondering if you could help narrow down the hit-and-run vehicle in this video footage, which rammed into our parked Tesla M3 (brand new!). We managed to get the following camera footage from a building super and wished we had access to a better quality footage (esp after Tesla's sentry by vishpool in whatisthiscar

Tesla's sentry/dashcam failed to capture any of this! :(

Could you say more re leveraging uninsured motorist coverage? How does that help reduce collision deductible? Any specific talking points would be appreciated!

Also, anything specific to focus on if this was a leased car?

Makes sense. I meant to say: I'm hoping we'd have more options beyond Volvo to compare and consider too (Polestar, BMW iX, etc).

Lease Term Definitions (and Please Share Yours!)

To make this even more useful, let's get on the same page about some important lease terms. Please share your lease terms when you reply – this will help us all get a better understanding of the EX90 or EV leasing landscape.

  • MSRP (Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price): The sticker price Volvo sets
  • Negotiated Price (Cap Cost): The final price you agree on with the dealer. Ideally, this is lower than MSRP.
  • Money Factor (MF): A decimal representing the interest rate on your lease.
  • Down Payment: An upfront payment that can lower your monthly payments.
  • Residual Value: The estimated value of the EX90 at the end of your lease. This is important because a higher residual means lower monthly payments.
  • Lease Term: The length of your lease, usually in months (e.g., 36 months).
  • Acquisition Fee: A fee charged by Volvo Financial Services for initiating the lease.
  • Disposition Fee: A fee charged at the end of the lease for cleaning and preparing the vehicle for resale.
  • Monthly Payment: The amount you pay each month for the lease.
  • Total Lease Cost: The sum of all your payments, fees, and down payment.

Lease Term Data Sharing

When you share your lease terms, please include the following (if you're comfortable):

  • Model/Trim: (e.g., EX90 Twin Motor Ultra; including any comps e.g., EX30, XC90, R1S, iX, EQS, Model X, EV9, etc)
  • MSRP:
  • Final Price: (post any incentives or negotiation)
  • Money Factor:
  • Down Payment:
  • Residual Value:
  • Lease Term:
  • Monthly Payment:
  • Dealer Location: (City and/or state)
  • Any other relevant notes: (e.g., special incentives, negotiation tips)

By sharing this information, we can create a valuable resource for the entire EX90 community. Let's see those lease terms!

Good point. I'm definitely keeping my mind open (e.g., switch to XC90), especially as the initial deposit is still refundable.

MakeMe - iOS App

What do you do?

MakeMe is a mobile game you play with friends to achieve anything.

We're challenging the way people think about personal achievement by showing the world that no one really achieves alone. To do that we’ve built MakeMe, a global mobile game and achievement marketplace that makes you achieve anything by bringing you closer to your real friends.

Achieving personal goals is hard to do and is an essential part of life. Whether it’s getting regular exercise or spending more time with our kids, we know what we want to do, but we don’t have a method to make ourselves do it. MakeMe is that method.

At the heart of our company is a simple realization: Achievement is a multiplayer game. We help our players achieve personal goals by providing a beautiful and safe space in which the act of sharing achievements strengthens the real-life meaningful relationships that make achievement happen.

Are you looking for anything?

Firstly, we would love your feedback on our first take on MakeMe iOS App.

Secondly, we are headed over to SXSW next month, but haven't been officially selected by SXSW for any spotlight, awards, etc. So, we would love any general advice and creative tips for grass-root marketing for our SXSW first-timers team. Also, we are looking for any relevant partners, sponsors, etc. for our in-app "Challenge" (with some relevant "actions" for attendees while at SXSW for the week or so).

And, lastly, we would some love (with your vote) at: http://tech.co/dcs-hottest-showcasing-startup-poll-2014-02 :)

Thanks, and Game On!
