Take advantage of Section 179 tax incentives before year-end and enjoy major tax deductions on eligible 2025 Ford models used for business.
Under Section 179, your business may be able to take tax deductions on qualifying Ford models if they were purchased and placed in service this year. You must act before December 31 to qualify. Consult your tax professional for details and eligibility.
Ford Vehicles Qualifying (Full or Partial) for 2025
| Model | Notes | Likely Eligibility |
|---|---|---|
| Ford F-150 | Some trims exceed 6,000 lbs GVWR; bed length and configuration matter; business-use percentage affects deduction. | Partial or possibly full, depending on configuration. |
| Ford F-250 Super Duty | Generally heavy, often over 10,000 lbs GVWR. | Likely fully eligible under most configurations. |
| Ford F-350 Super Duty | Very high GVWR; built for towing and hauling. | Typically fully eligible. |
| Ford F-450 / F-550 | Heavy-duty commercial-grade trucks. | Almost always fully eligible. |
| Ford F-600 / F-650 / F-750 | Medium to heavy-duty work trucks, very high GVWR. | Fully eligible for Section 179. |
| Ford Transit Vans (Transit 250 / 350, Cargo / Passenger) | Most configurations exceed 6,000 lbs GVWR and are built for commercial use. | Typically fully eligible. |
| Ford E-Series / Econoline (E-350, E-450) | Cutaway and work van models often exceed 10,000 lbs GVWR. | Fully eligible in most cases. |
| Ford Expedition / Expedition MAX | Large SUV; GVWR usually above 6,000 lbs, may be treated as a luxury SUV under IRS caps. | Partially eligible under the SUV deduction cap. |
What “Full vs Partial” Means in Ford’s Case
Full Deduction: Applies to heavy-duty trucks and vans with GVWR over 6,000 lbs (often much higher) that are used primarily for business. These vehicles can generally deduct the full purchase price under Section 179, subject to overall IRS limits.
Partial Deduction: Applies to SUVs, lighter trucks, or vehicles with some personal use. Vehicles between 6,000 and 14,000 lbs GVWR may face the SUV cap (e.g. $31,300 for 2025). Any remaining cost above that cap may still qualify for bonus depreciation or regular depreciation.
In summary, commercial-style vehicles (like Transit Vans, F-250+, and chassis cabs) typically qualify for full deductions, while SUVs and lighter trucks (like certain F-150 trims and Expeditions) qualify for partial deductions.
