$19 is not realistic. Several months ago two individuals posted here that they got US Bank down to $11,000 and $12,000 but after weeks of going back and forth but the low US Bank offer only came in days before the car was due to be turned in. As I understand it, some or all of the $7,500 federal tax incentive (which US Bank pocketed) was added to the residual to bring down the lease payment; your residual may actually be $16,500 if the applied the entire $7,500 to the residual.
