Currently am leasing a 2006 truck

Well, you can just ask someone to take over payments and if they agree have the person who financed you for the vehicle to finance that person, if there credit isnt bad then they should be approved, but thats alittle harder than your other option, take the truck to different car lots, and you will find a dealer that will take it as a trade in, lets say the truck is 15k, the other dealer will appraise it, and take how ever much they think its worth off the 15k, if thats what your buying it for, then they will let you pick out another vehicle and add the differance to that, for instance, your paying 15,000, the new dealer says its worth 14,000, they subtract 14,000 from the 15 which leaves 1,000, then the new dealer sells you a different truck for 10,000 lets say, they will add the differance making it a total of 11,000,. It sounds complicated but its simple really, and trading it in would allow you to negotiate a monthly payment that is more affordable...good luck

You can advertise in the paper to get out of it. or else you may be stuck with it.

A lease is treated the same as ownership as far as selling. In most cases that is the advantage of leasing. You can sell the car, more than what the residule value is of course. Look on the lease papers it will show what you can buy the car or truck for at the end of the lease or just call or email the leasing company and ask what the payoff is. Once you have the payoff amount sell it for that amount or more depending on the market value.
