Get A Huge Tax Break For Your Business At Brighton Ford

We’re sure you know that taxes can be quite the headache for small businesses. With all of the costs, time and effort involved in running your business, it’s frustrating to have to pay so much of your hard earned profits in taxes. That is why Brighton Ford is doing its best to help small businesses this tax season! 

BUYING A NEW FORD = A HUGE TAX WRITE-OFF
According to new tax guidelines under the IRS section 179 tax code, small businesses may be eligible to write off up to $500,000 that was spent on new equipment specifically for the business. In the past, businesses were required to spread these deductions out over the span of several years. But now, under the IRS section 179, businesses can write off the entire cost of one or more qualifying new Ford trucks or work vans from Brighton Ford near Lansing. To be eligible for the 2017 tax year, vehicles must be purchased between now and December 31, 2017.

In addition to buying the vehicle in the specified time frame, the vehicles must be used for business at least 50% of the time (based on mileage) in the first year that the vehicle is used. If you use the car for both business and personal use, only the percentage used for business would be eligible for tax deduction.  Section 179 for 2017 expires end of day, 12/31/2017. To deduct the full price of your equipment from your 2017 taxes and cash-in on the new higher deduction limits, your new Brighton Ford work truck must be purchased and put into service by year end.

Ford Super Duty – Going Platinum

Where do you go when you’re the gold standard? Platinum! The Ford Super Duty Platinum edition will be available as an F-250, F-350, or F-450. Take a look at some of the details of the Super Duty Platinum from Ford Social from their article, “Platinum Coming to Super Duty.”

The Ford Super Duty Platinum

From its bold mesh-detailed grille to its exclusive satin-chrome tailgate applique, the new 2013 Ford Super Duty Platinum clearly communicates your hardworking ethic and recognizes your platinum level of success. Inside, Crew Cab spaciousness combines with unique premium leather-trimmed seating to give this Built Ford Tough truck an unprecedented level of sophistication.

Available in the Super Duty Crew Cab, it can be ordered as an F-250, F-350 or F-450 and with the 6.7-liter Power Stroke® diesel engine or the 6.2-liter V8 gas engine.

The Super Duty Platinum clearly stands out, thanks to its unique satin chrome grille surround, 20-inch cast-aluminum wheels with unique painted pockets, a monochromatic bumper and chrome tow hooks. In fact, chrome is king – the door and tailgate handles, mirror caps, running boards, exhaust tip and the Platinum name on the boxside feature it.

Inside, meanwhile, there are special woodgrain appliqués, and a unique heated steering wheel with genuine walnut swirl wood and leather trim. Brown Oliver Ash woodgrain appliqué appears on the instrument panel end caps, center stack and door trims. And a new storage area atop the dash has a USB port, audio-visual connections and a 12-volt charging port for your cell or other digital devices. The voice-controlled MyFord Touch^® connectivity system makes its first appearance on the Super Duty, and just for the F-Series, Ford designers have optimized the physical interface for MyFord Touch to accommodate truck users who may be wearing work gloves, by providing easy access to climate controls and audio presets on the center stack.

The refined interior perfectly compliments the bold exterior look of the Platinum Super Duty

MyFord Touch is standard equipment along with navigation, power-adjustable pedals, a rearview camera, Remote Start System, a universal garage door opener and power-telescoping mirrors. Available exterior colors are Ruby Red, Kodiak Brown, Tuxedo Black, Ingot Silver and White Platinum, while interior colors include Pecan and Midnight Black.

The 2013 Ford Super Duty Platinum will be available later this year and we will let you know right away when we get them on our lot.
