Section 179 Vehicle Depreciation

Shawn H.

Posted

If I purchase a 'used' truck (6000#+ GVWR, extended cab, short bed) this year, can I deduct the entire purchase amount on this years taxes?  Purchase cost will be less than $25,000. The vehicle will be used 75-100% for business for the next 5+ years. Will I have to recapture depreciation when I sell? Thanks
