It's nice to have an upper hand over a car dealership, if at all possible.

That makes me think about other fees that people might encounter when they're buying or leasing.

What differences might there be between the fees when people are buying and leasing?

Yeah, like if your son has melted some... Exactly.

It just seems like you're really throwing money away.

I'm paying a cap of money, a surcharge, essentially, to be able to rent this car for a couple of years.

And then I don't see any of that money back.

And I know that it's going toward making the monthly payment more affordable, or I assume that that's the case.
