Section 179 Commercial Vehicle Tax Benefits for Colorado Businesses

A Complete Guide from Mike Maroone Chevrolet GMC Longmont

For Colorado businesses looking to expand, replace, or modernize their work vehicles, the IRS Section 179 deduction can offer substantial tax savings. Instead of writing off a commercial vehicle slowly over several years, Section 179 may allow you to deduct the full purchase price in the same tax year, if the vehicle is placed into service before December 31.

At Mike Maroone Chevrolet GMC Longmont, our commercial team works every day with business owners, contractors, fleet managers, governmental departments, and independent operators to help them take advantage of this incentive while selecting vehicles that fit their operational needs.

How Section 179 Works

Section 179 is an IRS provision designed to encourage business investment. If a qualifying vehicle is purchased or leased and then placed into service during the current tax year, a business may be able to deduct up to the entire purchase price, rather than depreciating the asset over time. To qualify, a vehicle typically must:

  • Be used more than 50% for business
  • Be placed into service (not just purchased) before the end of the tax year
  • Meet specific IRS weight and usage criteria

This can dramatically improve end-of-year financial planning, especially for businesses needing multiple vehicles or fleet replacements.

2025 Section 179 Limits (Confirm with a Tax Professional)

  • Potential deduction up to $1,250,000
  • Deduction phase-out begins when spending exceeds $3,130,000
  • Bonus depreciation may apply after Section 179, allowing additional write-offs

Although these numbers reflect the current published guidance, tax laws change frequently. Always consult your CPA before filing.

What Types of Vehicles May Qualify?

Many work-focused vehicles meet Section 179 guidelines, including:

  • Commercial trucks
  • Cargo and passenger vans
  • Larger utility-focused SUVs

Eligibility depends heavily on gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR), configuration, and business use. That's why our team helps buyers verify documentation, weight classification, and in-service requirements.
