This is my advice.
Don't lease the subbie, but act as if you did. Meaning, take the $1K and the monthly payments and put them aside. After 3 months you'll have a few $'s to play with.
True, true. Decided to keep the teg even though it'd cost more to repaint it and some other projects that bug me. I test drive these newer cars and the electric power steering bugs me to no end (numbness & lack of feedback).
