Section 179 Vehicles at Gene Latta Ford
Save with Section 179 Vehicles at Gene Latta Ford
Attention business owners in the Hanover area: Did you know you could potentially write off the entire purchase price of a Ford commercial vehicle on your taxes? Thanks to Section 179 of the tax code, many Ford vehicles like Ford Super Duty trucks and Ford Transit Vans qualify for significant deductions when used for business. Gene Latta Ford wants to help you navigate these savings and get you behind the wheel of the right work vehicle for your company.
How Section 179 Works
Normally, when your business buys a vehicle, you can only deduct a portion of the cost each year through depreciation. However, Section 179 allows you to write off the entire purchase price of a qualifying vehicle in the year you buy it and start using it for your business. That results in a much bigger tax break up front, freeing up cash to reinvest in your company's growth.
To qualify for the Section 179 deduction, a vehicle must be used for business purposes more than 50 percent of the time and have a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) above 6,000 pounds. Many Ford commercial vehicles meet these standards. For example, if you buy a Ford F-250 Super Duty and use it for work 75 percent of the time in Taneytown, MD, you could deduct 75 percent of the truck's price on that year's taxes.
Powerful Ford Trucks that Qualify
Ford Super Duty trucks are some of the most capable and popular commercial vehicles on the market. They're built with rugged, high-strength frames and powerful engines to tackle tough jobs. The F-250 and F-350 come standard with a muscular 6.8-liter gas V8 engine generating 405 horsepower. That's more than enough strength to haul equipment around Manchester, MD. Need even more power? The available 6.7-liter Power Stroke Turbo Diesel V8 in the F-450 delivers a massive 475 horsepower and 1050 pound-feet of torque while meeting the 6,000-pound GVWR requirement for Section 179.
Versatile Ford Vans Are Eligible for Section 179
In addition to pickups, many businesses in Frederick, PA rely on spacious commercial vans to get work done efficiently. Ford Transit vans offer a wide range of configurations and options to customize them for various industries and uses. The Transit lineup includes the Transit 150, 250, and 350 Cargo Vans, as well as Passenger Van and Crew Van models.
All Transit vans are powered by a 3.5-liter V6 engine producing 275 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque, which is an ideal balance of capability and efficiency for hauling cargo or transporting a work crew. Consult with your tax advisor, but many Ford Transit vans can qualify for Section 179 tax incentives. You can upfit them with storage solutions, power outlets, and other professional options to boost your productivity out in the field.
Expanded Tax Incentives
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025 made Section 179 even more beneficial for small businesses. The new tax law for 2025 increases the deduction limit to $2.5 million and raises the phase-out threshold to $4 million. That provision allows you to invest in more high-quality commercial vehicles and equipment for your company while deducting the full purchase price from your taxes.
