I think the fear factor is a bit much - most immature people don't lease $15,000 - $30,000 new cars and make 48 lease payments on a car just to trash it. For a lot of them they lease cars for tax reasons and some of them are planning to buy it out at the end of the lease. If you drive a car hard for 4 years it shows, it just looks and feels worn out. If you take a car out to the hinterlands and drive the bag out of it, it will gets dents and pieces will get broken and unless the owner replaces the broken pieces, the dealer will assess thousands of dollars of charges to the owner of the lease when he goes to return the car.
