Our experienced team understands the nuances of Section 179 requirements and stands ready to help you maximize your business deductions for the 2026 tax year.
What Is Section 179?
The Section 179 deduction allows qualifying businesses to write off the entire purchase price of eligible equipment and vehicles in the year they're placed in service.1 This IRS provision is designed to encourage small- to medium-sized businesses to invest by providing immediate tax relief rather than requiring depreciation over several years.
For your vehicle to qualify, it must be used for business purposes more than 50% of the time.1 This makes Section 179 particularly valuable for contractors, delivery services and other commercial operations that depend on reliable transportation. Whether you're considering a new Ford Super Duty® for construction work or a work van near Azle for deliveries, the tax benefits can be substantial.
What Are the 2026 Section 179 Deduction Limits?
The 2026 Section 179 deduction offers generous limits that can benefit businesses of various sizes. Understanding these thresholds helps ensure you're making informed decisions about your fleet investments. This year, businesses can benefit from a 100% bonus depreciation,1 helping you save on new and used Ford purchases.
Successful Section 179 implementation requires coordination between your vehicle purchase timing and overall tax strategy. Our team recommends consulting with your tax professional to determine the best strategy for your business.
