Section 179 Tax Deduction

A Smart Way for Your Business to Save at Lochmandy Motors

The Section 179 tax deduction is one of the most valuable benefits available to today’s business owners. If your company needs trucks, vans, or commercial-use vehicles, Section 179 can significantly reduce the cost of upgrading your fleet. At Lochmandy Motors, we help businesses take advantage of this deduction by offering a strong selection of work-ready vehicles that may qualify.

What Is Section 179?

Section 179 allows a business to deduct the full purchase price of qualifying equipment and vehicles in the same year they are placed in service. Instead of depreciating the cost gradually, your business may write off the entire amount—resulting in major tax savings and improved cash flow.

This gives companies the flexibility to invest now, grow faster, and upgrade to modern, reliable vehicles without the long wait for yearly depreciation.

2025 Deduction Limits

For tax year 2025, businesses may be eligible for:

• Up to $1,250,000 in total Section 179 deductions

• A phase-out threshold beginning at $3,130,000 in qualifying purchases

• Special deduction limits for certain SUVs depending on weight and classification

These limits make it possible for many small and mid-sized businesses to immediately expense the full cost of qualifying vehicles.

Which Vehicles May Qualify?

Section 179 applies to vehicles used more than 50% for business. Many work-oriented trucks, vans, and heavy-duty SUVs qualify based on their design and Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR).

Eligible categories may include:

• Heavy-duty pickup trucks

• Work vans and cargo vans

• Commercial chassis vehicles

• Select SUVs rated at 6,000 lbs GVWR or higher

New or used vehicles may qualify as long as they are new to your business, purchased, and placed in service during the tax year.

Why Businesses Choose Section 179

Using this deduction can help your company:

• Reduce taxable income

• Improve yearly cash flow

• Add dependable, updated vehicles to your fleet

• Avoid long-term depreciation schedules

• Make year-end investments more financially efficient

For many companies, Section 179 can turn a major purchase into a strategic advantage.
