Have you looked into the resale value of jeep wranglers? specially Rubicons? they really don't depreciate much in 3 years. if you want to switch vehicles that fast.
Buying is always better whenever you have:
1) the cash.
2) finance with very low interest rate and invest the cash.
Leasing is only better than buying if you need to take a huge loan and you want to have the vehicle for only 3 years, which imo is a terrible financial decision, but of course we do with our money what we please. In all honesty people who lease often tend to get vehicles that are too expensive for their income, and no matter how much income and financial responsibilities you have, it is always better to buy something you can comfortably afford. If you are worried about money, trying to save for a big payment, or who knows why reasons you are thinking about leasing. How about looking into JK's?
I honestly think the best option for you would be to buy a slightly used JK and build it as you get more into wheeling, or buy a Sport with the no slip rear diff if you truly want a JL and build it up as you go. One you get used to the jeep and get three years of wheeling behind you, then you can go full on and hit the hard trails without worrying so much about taking a beat on a "brand new jeep".
