The roads of the East Bay demand a vehicle that can do it all. Whether you're navigating the morning commute on I-680, hauling gear for a weekend at Mount Diablo, or heading to a job site in Concord, the Ford F-150 is the undisputed champion of the American road.
For many drivers in Walnut Creek, the smartest way to experience this legendary truck isn't through a decade-long loan, but through a flexible Ford F-150 lease. At Walnut Creek Ford, located right on North Main Street, we specialize in tailoring lease agreements that allow you to enjoy the latest towing technology and cabin comforts without the long-term commitment of ownership.

Why Lease a Ford F-150 in Walnut Creek?
Leasing a truck in Northern California offers distinct advantages, especially for those who appreciate having the most modern features at their fingertips. When you choose to lease a new Ford F-150, you aren't just getting a vehicle; you're getting a lifestyle upgrade.
Drive More Truck for Less
One of the primary reasons our customers at Walnut Creek Ford choose to lease is the financial flexibility. Because you only pay for the vehicle's depreciation during the lease term, your monthly lease payments are typically significantly lower than if you were to finance a purchase. This often allows you to move up to a higher trim level, like the F-150 Lariat or the King Ranch, for a similar monthly budget as a lower-tier purchase.
Cutting-Edge Technology Every Few Years
The automotive world is moving fast. From Ford BlueCruise hands-free highway driving to the innovative Pro Power Onboard, Ford is constantly pushing the envelope. With a standard 24- or 36-month lease, you can simply trade in your keys for the newest model at the end of your term, ensuring you always have the latest safety tech and fuel-efficient engines.
Worry-Free Maintenance
Most new Ford F-150 leases align perfectly with the factory bumper-to-bumper warranty. This means that for the duration of your lease, you can enjoy the "worry-free" years of the truck's life. Plus, at Walnut Creek Ford, our certified service center makes routine maintenance like oil changes and tire rotations quick and convenient.

Our finance specialists sit down with you to discuss your driving habits-whether you need a low-mileage lease for local errands or a higher-mileage allowance for heavy commuting. We walk you through the residual value, the money factor, and any current Ford lease incentives or Military/First Responder rebates to ensure you get the most value for your dollar.
A Selection Built for California
Our inventory is curated for our local landscape. Looking for an F-150 4x4 for those snowy trips to Lake Tahoe? Or perhaps the F-150 Lightning to take advantage of California's growing EV infrastructure?

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if I go over my mileage limit on my F-150 lease?
Standard Ford leases typically offer 10,500, 12,000, or 15,000 miles per year. If you exceed this, there is usually a small per-mile fee at the end of the term. However, if you know you're a high-mileage driver, our team can customize your lease upfront to include more miles, which is often more cost-effective.
Can I buy my F-150 at the end of the lease?
Absolutely. Many of our Walnut Creek customers fall in love with their trucks. At the end of your term, you have the option to purchase the vehicle for its "residual value", a price that was determined and locked in the day you signed your lease.
Does leasing an F-150 require a large down payment?
Not necessarily. While a down payment (also known as a "capitalized cost reduction") can lower your monthly payments, we frequently offer $0 down lease specials for well-qualified buyers. We also accept trade-ins, which can act as your down payment.
Is the F-150 Lightning available for lease in Walnut Creek?
Yes! The all-electric F-150 Lightning is a very popular lease choice in the East Bay. Leasing an EV is often a strategic move as it allows you to take advantage of current federal or state tax incentives which are often applied directly to the lease cost by Ford Credit.
