What Is the Section 179 Deduction & Who Does It Benefit?
Section 179 of the IRS tax code allows businesses to immediately deduct the full purchase price of qualifying company equipment rather than depreciating the cost over several years. These immediate tax savings free up capital so businesses can invest, improve cash flow, and expand. Section 179 is different from, but can be used in conjunction with, bonus depreciation.
- Maximum Section 179 deduction limits and phase-out thresholds are permanently indexed for inflation and adjusted annually.
- The Section 179 deduction benefits small and midsize companies that spend less than $6.5 million per year on machinery and equipment.
- The Section 179 deduction applies to both new and used equipment purchases.
- Eligible equipment and machinery can be leased, financed, or purchased with cash but must be used for business more than 50% of the time.
- Equipment investments exceeding $6.5 million are not eligible for a Section 179 deduction but may still qualify for bonus depreciation.

Do all F-150 trucks qualify?
Yes and no: All 2025 Ford F-150 trim levels should qualify for a Section 179 deduction. 2025 rules stipulate that eligible vehicles must have GVWRs between 6,000 and 14,000 pounds, and all 2025 variants meet this requirement. However, certain used trims from past model years may have GVWRs below 6,000 pounds, which would disqualify them from a Section 179 deduction.
New or used: Does it matter?
No, your decision to lease or finance a new or used commercial vehicle does not affect your business's ability to file for a Section 179 tax deduction. According to 2025 Section 179 rules, any new or used vehicle with a GVWR between 6,000 and 14,000 pounds that is used for commercial purposes 50% or more of the time should qualify for a deduction and subsequent bonus depreciation.
