Anyone lease a car?

We have a leased car.  We mistakenly thought we could terminate the lease early, pay the fees, etc. if we ever needed to get a bigger car.  Well, now we need a bigger car because there is no way 3 car seats will fit in our crossover and in my brief conversation with the dealer (he's calling me back), it sounds like I can break the lease but still have to pay on it for the remainder of the lease term.  Which means we'd end up with 3 car paymens for at least a year -- not doable!  I'm freaking out.  Anyone have any experiences with leases?

    We HAD a leased car (and will never do so again).  We traded it to buy a car, at a different dealership.  Basically, they rolled some of the balance due into our new car.

    Good point.  We had tried a 5-pt harness booster for Natalie in what we have but I didn't think about maybe buying a new carset for Claire and/or baby.  We'll have to look into that.  Thanks.

    Are you upside down on your other car? Can you sell it and buy something in cash?

    Selling my husband's car isn't an option.  But I think we worked it out.  We're going to ride out the lease and just get new carseats.

    Getting new car seats is probably a cheaper option than a new car. Hope the car seats work out!
