they're trying to reduce their long term liability. if the leasee chooses not to buy the car/truck at the end of the lease, then they are stuck with the car/truck. if the gas prices go up by .50-.75 within the lease period they are focked.
by not doing discounted/subsidized lease, they take a small hit when the car is turned in at the end of the lease. btw gm is not even leasing trucks anymore (probably only through GMAC) in the USA.
