Is leasing a good option if I drive over 15,000 miles a year in NJ?

Leasing can still work for high-mileage drivers if you negotiate a higher annual mileage allowance upfront — 12,000, 15,000, or even 18,000 miles/year. Higher mileage leases cost more per month but are far cheaper than paying excess mileage charges at lease end ($0.15–$0.25/mile). Alternatively, consider buying or a lower-cost vehicle to absorb the miles.
