Yahoo Autos Best New Car Lease Deals for April 2024: Body-on-Frame Trucks and SUVs
April's solar eclipse had a totality that lasted as long as four minutes and 28 seconds. Nearly everyone in the U.S. could see it, unless you had clouds in the sky or were locked into a conference call. The next chance to witness this astronomical syzygy across the U.S. will be 2044, or 2033 if you’re willing to travel to Alaska.
Sometimes the stars align to put you in a new truck, especially when that truck has a great engine that's being retired or is a model that until recently never gave out discounts. At this very moment in the universe, they're more within reach than ever before.

2024 Toyota 4Runner
$439 per month/$3299 at signing
36 months/30,000 miles
A new 4Runner only comes once every 15 years, and while the 2025 model qualifies as a cosmic event, the last 2024s with the 4.0-liter V-6 and five-speed automatic will cement their place in SUV history. This lease is even more of a deal because it's for the SR5 Premium 4WD, which includes niceties like heated power mirrors and front seats. A noisy engine and flimsy plastic trim are also part of the package—as is unbeatable reliability.
2024 Ram 1500
$479 per month/$4879 at signing
42 months/35,000 miles
For 2025, Ram is dropping the Hemi V-8 for the Hurricane I-6 across its light-duty trucks. Early impressions are positive, but the 5.7’s grumble is deeply satisfying and its pushrod, naturally-aspirated design has proven to be robust. This lease is for a Laramie 4x4 Crew Cab with a V-6, so you'll have to add $3045 for the V-8, which includes a 48-volt hybrid setup with cylinder deactivation.
2024 Infiniti QX80
$719 per month/$6250 at signing
18 months/15,000 miles
Infiniti must want shoppers to only get a taste of the outgoing QX80 before swiftly returning to the dealership for a 2025 model, which is the brand’s most comprehensively redesigned product in a decade. For a year and a half, you can enjoy a burly 5.6-liter V-8 that powered Infiniti's finest products (like the M56 sedan and the FX50 crossover coupe). It's a gutsy engine that thrusts this three-ton SUV into traffic with alarming ease. The infotainment is old, but this is a tough 4x4 with tried-and-true bones and lavishly padded front seats. Dip into the throttle and enjoy.
