It's just getting too expensive to save $100 a month in fuel costs. Wife loosing sleep getting, grumpy, no thanks, but she loves the Sentra, she hated a month ago.

Wait another 3 years and buy it for $10k, with an overmile charge on the lease. They will be popping up as they come off leases.

The Leaf makes perfect sense for us and she wants her SUV. If the Sentra
has another 24k in two years before it expires, it's worth the same amount.

Good reasoning here. Be patient and buy one cheap later. The Sentra will work until then.

It's funny though. Every word here about your wife describes mine exactly. It drives me nuts. You seem to deal with the quirks more easily, I suppose age does that. We've only been married 7+ years.
