Leasing cars/job vehicles/repo job

Thanks for the time to anyone that reads this to start. I was thinking about car prices for a casual player.  I'm thinking of another game mode idea that can spice things up a bit imo.

As a tow driver you don't get many calls so.... that got me thinking.

Cars would not only have a price but then a monthly in-game timed lease that would come automatically from ones bank account. Lets take a low price car to start this example. changing it from woning it for 400 to 400 being the down payment for example, as to buy the cheapest car is 300 or 400, i think its 400 for this example it will be 400 down, and in addition there would be another number on the buy list that says lease 300, per mo ingame time. So every 30 days in-game money comes out, if you run out of money your car is up for repo. this would do a few things.

A. Let,s say the average player has 5 cars each car has a monthly fee or it gets repossessed. 5 of the 400 priced cars would have a total of 1500 a in-game month being deducted from the bank accounts.

B.<--- a New in-game job<-- from the job center "must own tow truck" must have repo license. 20k Drivers get locations of color coded cars on map, drivers can accept and or decline repo jobs.

C. The more expensive the car the more the lease.

D. Lets be honest, almost no one pays for a car in cash, it's all down payments and a monthly fee. 

E. In this concept, if your car is successfully reposed and brought back to the impound lot, each day not paid would compound interest and cost more to release. A max time before car is sold at auction and gone, player must re-buy after IMO 5 in-game days of impound. Could open up an auction idea also  

F.  This idea would stop players from using multiple trunks as storage. Guiding those players to buy housing for storage, as housing IMO should be a monthly in-game cost also before the sheriff serves the eviction notice   

G. the Repossessor would get a blip on radar of where the players car is each time it comes out of a garage and /or is started then the repossessor must actively retrieve the car from the owner, and must notify the police before they attempt any repo, this way the police know the location of possible hostility. The repo driver could imo simply walk up to the player and tell them the car is up for repo, that player could ride with the driver back to the impound and pay the fines and back pay to get the car released. 

H. Or the driver could wait till the owner leaves the vehicle and use a lock pick to open it and then load it on the tow truck.

I. Or the owner could flee, and or fight for his/her vehicle, as then the repo driver could then fight back, and or flee and release that job order due to violence, that could be given to the next driver as a blip of a dif color on the map to indicate to that driver that there could be hostility. 

Thanks for your time to anyone that reads this.  

Ps... it doesn't have to stop at cars , this can be for trucks motorcycles, and or aircraft and boats

Too bad that other tow truck still doesn't work, that one could just back up to the car and pick it up, or as they call it a Hook and Book!

Extra. There could be payments rather then using the word lease and could need to be payed by phone app via the Player. If the player misses a payment the car gets flagged for repo <--- possible edit
