I paid cash for my Wrangler just because I plan on keeping it forever and I wanted to know if worse came to worse in my personal finances, I had a car with no payment to worry about.

But normally I lease. I want a new "every day" car every 3 or so years and leasing has always worked out best for me. I leased a Cherokee when I bought the Wrangler. I love them both but they are 100% polar opposite cars
