That's the base money factor, and it's pretty much in-line with their advertised deals (your deal is a little better).
I wouldn't put $5000 upfront on a lease, though. You could put $1500 upfront and take a payment of around $435/mo.

really need my payment around $300, as this will be a second car - already have another car payment, so I was trying to get that payment lower
Well.. as long as you realize that the payment isn't really lower . You are just buying it down with a downpayment...

are you saying $334 is not lower than $435? I am not understanding you? I have the $5 grand to give now but not the $100 extra for 34 more months
I'm saying there is no real difference in cost to you. You can take $3500 out of that $5000 and put it in the bank..... then draw out $100 every month to help you make the payment on the car. Putting all of that money upfront is not really saving you any money, but it is putting that extra amount at risk, if the car is totaled within the first few months.
Unless the $5000 is a gift, that has to be used on the downpayment, you are better off keeping it in your pocket, and using it as needed.

ok now I understand what you mean. Thanks for your help. I will give this some thought and make my decision. But to answer your question, Yes, most of it was a gift, but not all - I was adding towards it. You really have been a great help, and I really appreciate your expertise, this stuff gets a little overwhelming after awhile
It gets easier, after the first dozen mistakes.. We all make them..
