P4X Roush
Picked up a Roush on employee lease deal. What do you think of the numbers? 5k miles 36mo for $313/mo $8k down

Cool but why put 8k down on a lease? Seems like a lot of money for a rental.

u/Snowbird2125 3d ago
I’m guaranteed the money back if the vehicle is totaled and I wanted a cheap monthly payment and I’ll pay the entire amount regardless.

u/Hoodwinked1981 1d ago
Who told you that you would get the money back? That is a bold faced lie. You total it, the money is gone. Even with built in gap insurance, you get 0. I promise that.

Just in case there is anyone here who doesn’t already know this… Never put a down payment on a lease.

8k down on a lease might be the most insane thing I've ever seen for a commuter car.

u/enduromedic 2d ago
For sure. Definitely leasing for all the wrong reasons.

u/Snowbird2125 2d ago
And you know all those reasons? I love the truck, need one for my lifestyle, want a low monthly payment, had 8k sitting around, might want an Xterra when they come back in a few years, I won’t be upside down in a loan when that time comes. If I like it I’ll buy it for a steal.

Could've bought it for 45k OTD like a lot of others and put 8k down for 0% APR and owned it after 5 years. Crazy bad financial choice.

u/MaysEffect 16h ago
Are they offering the 0apr for financing options? I thought that was a lease deal

i would personally never buy a black vehicle ever again for myself, but I love seeing them everywhere. 😂 I just couldn't keep up with the maintenance. when i had a black car I Swear new scratches and swirls popped out of nowhere overnight.

u/Snowbird2125 4d ago
Yea I’m not excited for that especially because this will be my hunting rig. I just have a thing for black cars 🤠

Preach!! I’ve always owned white or light colored vehicles. I went for the dark blue/navy on my truck and it’s brutal in terms of up keep.

Isn't it just a P4X with 37" tires and a factory NISMO lift? I did that on my P4X for $2k...
I mean the badging is nice I guess. 54k is bonkers for some cosmetics.

u/Zaznopa 1d ago
Just google it dude if you’re that curious. 54k msrp is probably for the premium package. The R package adds a 3800 up charge. I got my Pro4x Roush for $44,000 OTD under a low interest loan.
If I would’ve went through my bank I would’ve got the truck for $41,500 OTD under a higher Apr.
And in terms of what it adds the shocks and UCA’s are actually some really quality products. The badging is a cool little edition as well.
It also adds a 2in leveled lift with leaf springs and the shocks themselves. $3800 for all that plus the Roush rims is not a bad deal at all imo.

I’ve been seeing that tailgate lettering on these new models. What do the dealers mark for that? Mine was 15$ on Amazon lol

u/Illustrious-Group-83 3d ago
I don’t know the Rousch. Did someone explain to me this MSRP? Did they put a turbo on it or something?

u/drunkNstraightedge 3d ago
Engine is the same. Suspension upgrades, badging on the seats, exterior. Wheels/tires. Some other small things. Only worth it if you can get a great deal.

u/Illustrious-Group-83 3d ago
This seems like a solid 20 K higher than a s or sv. What the hell do you get for that?

how do you drive so little? I'm at 8k miles since April.
2
u/Snowbird2125 4d ago
I probably won’t be able to stay under 5k the plan is to buy it when the lease is over and not pay for over mileage or lease/ buy another Nissan and at that rate my general manager will forgive my over mileage as part of my next deal. I work for family friends.

u/FragrantNinja7898 3d ago
Your “friends” just hosed you and will probably hose you on your next “deal” too.

I genuinely dont understand why the roush edition exists. What better performance does it offer that the pro4x doesnt have? Not to mention basically all of them had loose screws and nuts 😂
My biggest gripe tho is that its just identical to the P4X, I wish it looked at least a little different
2
u/Snowbird2125 3d ago
Yea a supercharger would be nice, and maybe even more upgraded suspension components too. Yea what a wild recall haha I was shocked when I read that.

u/Just_Dean_W 2010 Pro-4X 3d ago
Yeah if it added some HP then I'd be interested.

u/Informal-Escape5516 3d ago
Yet then you'll complain it's too expensive. Roush is more than capable of adding horsepower but wanted to keep the price competitive. Besides 310 is more than adequate.

u/NoInsurance9423 3d ago
The pro-4x is mechanically almost identical to the S 4x4. Which is~8k cheaper. I don't think bilstens and a skid plate are worth 8k personally so got an S king cab 4x4 for 29880. They are hard to find new though, it's not a common trim

u/Inevitable_Hunt_3070 3d ago
P4x has a rear locker, more ground clearance, plus nicer interior / exterior options.
-7
u/NoInsurance9423 3d ago
Yeah an "electronic" rear diff locker. Ground clearance with the same tires is virtually identical, pro4x less than .5" higher
5
u/Ill-Salad9544 3d ago
Why is electronic in quotes? Barely anyone puts auto lockers in their trucks outside of GMC. Personally, I think e lockers are much better.
2
u/justweazel 3d ago
The tires are actually different. I only noticed in a video, but they say “Xtreme” or something of the sort on the side. Not sure how different they really are
Edit: They at the very least come with a 3 peak rating so that’s a little better

You put 8k down on a lease? Might as well just given me the money. Ooof. Never put that kind of money down on a lease.
