<prompt> Human: I am coming to the end of my lease on a Honda. It has been a super great experience, especially because I havent had any maintenance except oil changes. I havent yet sat down with the salesman to go over my options, but wanted to come here first. I know when I go in for the end of lease, I have the option of leasing another vehicle or purchasing the one I have now, and for both of those options I wont have to pay any extra fees mileage, car damage, etc. If I choose to turn in the vehicle or purchase a used one, I will have to pay any mileage over the contract amount, plus any damage to the vehicle. The vehicle I have is over the contracted mileage amount, plus it has some front end damage my insurance wouldnt pay for and it was about 1200 estimate. I chose to put it off until I traded my lease. So my current feelings are this: I like the lease option because you get a new car and hardly ever have any issues. Most things are covered under warranty, as well. Problem is, I dont really like the vehicle anymore want something different plus I want to finally get a vehicle I like and wont want to trade in again in 3 years or go through this again in 3 years I am also trying to save money, so I was thinking I could just get a slightly used vehicle and keep it for the next several years my kids will be driving in 5 years, but have no money for a big down payment or to purchase anything used outright. Im leaning towards just leasing another vehicle since it seems to be the most affordable option for me right now. Any thoughts?  <response>: Set a budget for what youre willing to spend on a lease and dont budge from that. Then find the car you like the most that you can get for that price. Not everyone wantshas to drive a 5-10 year old use car and no matter what its a sunk cost new, used, lease so get what you can afford and also makes you the most happy.
