We turned to our friends at LeaseCompare.com to see what were the Top 10 vehicles people have been leasing over the past 6 months. For your benefit, we also asked them what an ideal lease payment would be on each one of these vehicles (and keep in mind the number they gave us is with $0 down; a payment will decrease the more money you put down).
