A simple Answer TO yOUr Question
Is a 3-row SUV worth it if I only have two kids?
For most families with two kids, a 3-row SUV is not necessary and adds $80-$120 per month in lease cost for seats you will rarely use. The third row in most midsize SUVs is comfortable only for children; adults will find it cramped on anything beyond a short drive. Where a 3-row makes sense: if you frequently carpool, have three or more kids, or regularly travel with extended family. Otherwise, a well-spec'd 2-row SUV typically serves a family of four better.

I recently leased a car through Vantage Auto Group in Watchung, NJ, and worked directly with Sean Ulsaker. The experience was nothing short of remarkable. No pressure, no obligation, no haggling—just honest, efficient, and top-tier service.My car broke down on a Monday. I contacted Sean, and by Thursday, I had a new vehicle delivered to my place of business. He guided me through car recommendations, arranged test drives the very next day, handled all the paperwork, and made the entire process seamless. I didn’t even have to leave my office.From now on, I’ll be working exclusively with Vantage Auto and recommending them to anyone looking for a stress-free car leasing experience. Sean and the team truly go above and beyond. thank you Sean for the excellent service. First time leasing a car and not having to take headache pills.Again, thanks! Manny Barrueco

Had an Amazing experience with Vantage Auto Group & David Alessio! This was the first time using them. I didn’t have a clear Idea of a car we wanted but needed to stay inside a budget. I was referred by a friend to not waste my time with going to multiple dealership to play the negotiating games. David gave us some recommendations, did some pricing and then came back with an amazing find and deal right under budget. 24 hours later they delivered the car, I signed the paperwork & everything was seamless. They returned my old lease and plates to DMV. Door to door service with no hassle or dealership games. Will def use again in the future! Thank you again!

Mark Viegas is an absolute lifesaver. I truly don’t have the words to express how grateful my husband and I are for such an incredible experience - and such a quick turnaround. After my daughters and I were in a very serious car accident early last week, I knew getting a new vehicle would be overwhelming and stressful.Enter Mark Viegas at Vantage Auto Group. From start to finish, he made the entire process unbelievably simple. We shared exactly what we were looking for, and within 48 hours a brand-new car was delivered straight to our driveway.The days of walking into dealerships and negotiating prices are long gone. I will never go back - and neither should you! If you’re in the market for a new car, I can’t recommend Mark enough - reach out to him. I promise you won’t be disappointed.
