Introduction

You have just graduated from college, and started a brand new job.  You receive you first paycheck and decide, that as a reward for all of your hard work, you are going to treat yourself to a brand new car.  The problem is that you do not understand the difference between purchasing and leasing, and you must decide which option is right for you.   

This webquest is designed to help you see that there are advantages and disadvantages to each option.  Upon finishing this assignment you should be able to make a well informed decision.
