Straight out of the mouth of my buddy who has been a F&I manager and now general manager of a massive auto dealer in Nor-Cal: "Jason here's a short list to help your buddies not get hosed when leasing an auto...I can't tell you just how profitable leasing vehicles can be to a dealer (unless your Chrysler... I digress), good luck! " -

#1 Negotiate price just as if you were going to buy it with cash
#2 DO NOT mention a trade-in until you have negotiated price
#3 Know the manufacture lease incentives, prior to visiting dealer (research at kbb.com or Nada etc
#4 See #1
#5 See #2
#6 Don't walk in and say "hey I wanna invoice deal on a lease" That's what Internet managers are for

Hope this helps a little RB

Cheers
