JohnJ. My current supplier has told me that the numbers don't make sense and warns me that I may be trapped at the end of the lease with Toyota. He claims this is not uncommon. I understand the hours and abuse effecting the end of lease terms. However, my current vendor has warned me that they might have inflated residuals and my concern is if 3 seperate companies deems the residuals to be lower am I on the hook for the difference? As I mentioned I realize Toyota is a good company but if the sale prices are virtually the same why would the Toyota lease be so much lower than all other bids? I need to make a decision by mid July, so if anyone can answer this question I would appreciate it.

Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
