I could only find one bit of criticism Rick, and if it weren't for people like you buying new the rest of us wouldn't have such a good choice when buying second hand.
These days leasing is the way many people acquire their cars, and once in a contract it tends to lock you in and you end up renewing the lease every couple of years and getting a new car.
Not a bad way to pay for your motoring I suppose, but I'm far too tight for any of that malarkey.
