Large Tax Breaks for Commercial Vehicles May Expire at the End of the Year

F-350 Super Duty
Large tax breaks for many buyers looking for commercial vehicles will expire at the end of this year. Now is the time to buy a commercial vehicle especially if you own your own business! The tax breaks which is a part of federal stimulus legislation spurred by the recession will dramatically front load the depreciation schedules for many large assets including vehicles of more than 6,000 pounds which includes many heavy-duty pickups. The tax breaks available this year can mean first year depreciation of as much as $46,000 on a $60,000 heavy duty pickup if a customer purchases before December 31st of 2013. This extra depreciation can reduce business tax bills by lowering taxable income. This deduction under Section 179 of the federal tax code applies to businesses that buy or lease 2 million or less worth of equipment in 2013. Most vehicles of more than 6,000 pounds that’s are used for business are eligible for 100 percent of the depreciation. However any vehicle used for commercial purchases can qualify for some benefits. If you are thinking about purchasing a vehicle for your small business now is the perfect time to buy! You will have a huge advantage of purchasing your vehicle before year end! At Preston we have our own Commercial Division which offers over 100 commercial vehicles! We have commercial vehicles available at both Preston Ford and Preston Nissan. At Preston Nissan we have the NV's and NV Cargos! Come and take your pick! If you do not have time to make it to the Preston Autoplex we will bring the vehicle to you! Just give us a call today and we will get everything lined up for you.

Preston Automotive Go Red For Women

Preston Automotive Go Red For Women

Preston Automotive Group is proud to announce the fact that we raised nearly $16,000 for the American Heart Association. We would like to thank every single person who was kind enough to participate in the Preston Automotive Go Red For Women event. For each car sold from February 5th, 2016 to February 15th, 2016, we donated $50 to AHA. We also gave out a red frog with every purchase in an effort to spread awareness for heart disease. February is celebrated as heart month and Preston Automotive Group is doing everything it can to spread awareness about this awful disease. We kicked off this fantastic event February 5th when our staff broke out our finest red outfits for National Wear Red Day to show the world that we stand with Go Red For Women. Between Preston Ford, Preston Nissan, Preston Mazda, and Preston Hyundai the Autoplex was filled to the brim with red. We were so excited to show the American Heart Association what everyone else already knows, that Preston cares! Here at Preston Automotive Group, we encourage everyone to participate in healthy habits that prevent heart disease. If you smoke, for instance, you should probably stop because non-smokers are a lot less likely to get heart disease. Consistent physical exercise could help prevent heart disease by aiding in quitting smoking, losing weight, reducing stress, increasing your HDL cholesterol, and lowering your blood pressure. Eating properly can also help you stay healthy and keep that heart ticking for a long time. We are so happy to pair with the American Heart Association for the Preston Automotive Go Red For Women event. 2016 marks the 13th anniversary of the Go Red For Women event, and we are working harder than ever to spread awareness about this horrific illness. Every dollar of the $15,900 we made went to research and education advancements via the American Heart Association. We would like to thank the American Heart Association so much for allowing us to help them raise awareness. Even more so, we would like to thank our incredible customers that participated in the Preston Automotive Go Red For Women event!
