A simple Answer TO yOUr Question

How many miles per year is too much for a leased commuter car?

Most standard leases include 10,000-12,000 miles per year. If your commute alone puts you at 15,000-20,000 miles annually, you will likely need a high-mileage lease allowance, which raises your monthly payment but avoids costly per-mile overage charges at lease end. As a general rule, calculate your expected annual mileage honestly before signing any lease. Overage penalties typically run $0.15-$0.25 per mile, which adds up quickly on a long commute.

We just bought our 3rd car from Dave and his group. They make it so easy not having to go to a dealer, I wouldn't do it any other way. You tell them exactly what you want, they find it, get you a great deal and deliver it.....need I say more!!! Dave is a true professional.

I had a great experience working with Sean at Vantage Auto Group. I wasn’t really looking forward to going through the car-buying process, but Sean made it incredibly easy. He found the exact car I wanted, got me a great deal, and had it delivered right to my driveway, without ever having to deal with a dealership. There was no pressure, no pushing, and no feeling that anyone was trying to take advantage. Everything was smooth, straightforward, and stress-free. I would absolutely recommend Vantage Auto Group to anyone who wants the car-buying experience to be easy and hassle-free.
