Also, what do you do when the dealer wants to discount the residual value of a leased vehicle due to nitpicking defects and charge you for them?

And you are making assumptions I don’t agree with. Every deal is unique and there is no way to know in advance how things will go. You insist you can do better - great, go do better. Are my numbers incorrect or just not something you would agree to?
