Buy or lease

Looking for advice on whether to buy or lease the Pacifica Hybrid. The general guideline for leasing as I understand it is if we plan to drive the car for more than 5 years, it's worth buying. We are intending to drive it for 8+ years, but are also interested in swapping for the full electric version when that comes out in 2025. Thoughts?

How often are you changing gas?

Potential Pacifica owner here. I see a bunch of posts about mileage so I'll ask the question in a different way: Given a relatively consistent routine and daily recharging at home, how often do you need to refuel at the pump? We're estimating ~100 miles per week of driving, mostly commuting / child dropoff on flat roads, half highway / half city. Hoping that the weekday driving will mostly be covered by electric, and then dipping into hybrid on weekends.

Hybrid Air Conditioning: Critical to Driving on Hot Days - Car Shuts down without it!

We have a 2019 Pacifica Hybrid, and really like the vehicle... but we learned something new about it on a recent trip through Death Valley. Thanks to the efforts of Chrysler Roadside Assistance and the service team at Larry H. Miller Chrysler on Lomas in Albuquerque, it ended up being a relatively painless lesson, but one that I thought I should share. Living in Vancouver we hardly ever need to use the Air Conditioner... it's nice, but not essential. When it died on our previous 2005 Grand...

towing

I just received my 2022 Pinnacle Hybrid (took 5 months). I have searched and cannot find any good reason why towing is a problem. Is there a good engineering reason why towing is not allowed on the hybrid? Before I commit to installing a hitch I am wondering why Chrysler says you cannot tow with the hybrid. Sure seems to have plenty of power.
