Three Benefits of Leasing Your Next Lexus Vehicle


Thinking about getting a Lexus but not sure if you should lease or buy your car? There are pros and cons to both, and it ultimately depends on you and your preference. Many people opt into leasing because of the advantages leases offer. Here are three benefits of leasing your next Lexus with us.

Lower payments
What you’re essentially doing when you lease a vehicle is renting it and paying the amount the car depreciates during the time you have it. You may notice that most lease monthly payments are lower than if you purchased the same car. You also might be able to upgrade to a better model with more features and still be within the budget you were hoping for. Some leases even include covered maintenance so you won’t have to spend extra money on maintaining the car.

No commitments
When you choose to lease a vehicle, you have options. At the end of the leasing period you can decide to lease a different vehicle, or if you love it, you can buy it. You’re not committed to keeping the car forever, and that’s always nice because in three years, you might be at a different stage in life and want a bigger vehicle.


Convenience
Sometimes a luxury vehicle is the type of car you want to lease. The lower payments are affordable and convenient for many people who want to drive a luxury vehicle but might not be able to if the monthly payments were higher. If you’re the type of person who always wants the latest technology, you’ll definitely love leasing. Every three years, you’ll get to have the newest car with the newest technology. At the end of the leasing period, you won’t need to worry about selling your car; you just return it to the dealership and find your next dream car. Simple as that!


Every person has different preferences when it comes to buying or leasing a car. For some people, leasing a luxury vehicle might be beneficial, and for some people it might not be. Whatever your situation is, we can do our best to help you figure out the best option for you. Plan your next visit to Larry H.

National Pet Month: Pet Safety Tips to Help Keep them Safe




May is National Pet Month, and we want to take this time to celebrate the joy that they bring to our lives. Like many pet owners, we love to bring our pets everywhere with us—especially on fun road trips. While planning any type of road trip, we need to plan ahead for our pets, too. Here are some pet safety tips you should check off your list when preparing.

Take Breaks
Many pets aren’t used to road trips, so it’s important to schedule breaks while you’re on the road. Every couple of hours make a stop and let your pet have a break and drink some water. All pets are different, so it’s important to observe and see how they react. The more you know, the easier it will be to prepare trips like these in the future.

Never Leave a Pet Unattended
This one is extremely important during hot weather in the summer. We occasionally hear stories where pets are left in a car because their owner didn’t realize how fast the temperature rises in their vehicles. Many pets have extra fur that traps heat, and having the windows rolled down doesn’t make much of a difference.

Make Sure Pets Have Tags or Are Chipped
Believe it or not, your pet could escape. They might go exploring, and since they are in a new area, they might get lost. Before you go on a trip, make sure your pet has a tag or is microchipped. This will make it so much easier to locate them or help someone return them to you.


Secure Your Pet
Just like we need to buckle up, our pets do too. It’s important to secure your pets and not let them roam around freely. Pets can be a huge distraction, and if they are up in the passenger seat or try to sit on your lap while you’re driving, accidents can happen. While it’s a good idea to have a vehicle with pet-friendly features, it’s also important to keep them in the back seat in a carrier, strapped in a harness that is made for car safety, or in a secure cargo area available in many vehicles.


Pet-friendly vehicles are very handy when traveling. If you’re looking for one, visit us at Larry H. Miller Lexus Murray. Our Lexus vehicles have features that both you and your pet will appreciate.
