Should I Use My Tax Refund to Buy a Ford in Salem?
Yes! Turn your tax refund into the new Ford you've been eyeing at our Salem Ford dealership. Why do we suggest using your annual tax refund as a down payment? Because there's no better time to buy than when you have a large influx of cash that you otherwise might not have readily available. And by putting down more money upfront and reducing your loan amount, you can potentially lower your monthly payments, making your vehicle investment more manageable.
How Do I Claim Ford EV Tax Credits in Oregon?
It's easy! Skyline Ford customers can benefit from significant savings courtesy of federal EV tax credits, which are aimed at encouraging sustainable driving habits. Whether itās the innovative Ford Mustang Mach-E or one of our pre-owned EVs for sale nearby you want, you may be able to benefit from generous electric car tax rebates. Visit Skyline Ford to learn exactly how to claim your savings.
What Is Section 179?
The Section 179 tax deduction is a tax benefit that lets companies deduct up to the entire cost of a qualifying asset that's used primarily for business. A variety of Ford vehicles may qualify for this valuable tax break, including such popular Ford commercial models like the F-150 and Super DutyĀ® lineups. Learn how you can upgrade your fleet for less by consulting with our commercial Ford finance experts.
What Are the Tax Implications of Out-of-State Car Buying?
The tax implications can vary when traveling from another state to make your purchase. If you're not local, we'll walk you through the tax and registration process -- something that many consider the most complicated part of buying a car across state lines. Whether youāre visiting from Washington, California or elsewhere, it's easy to buy a car out of state from Skyline Ford.
Should I Buy a Car at the End of the Year?
Yes! Not only are there countless end-of-year Ford specials and savings opportunities available, but completing your purchase by December 31, 2024, is critical if you want to qualify for certain automotive tax incentives like Section 179. If you buy a car and put it into service in January rather than December, you won't be able to claim any eligible tax benefits when completing your current-year tax return. Instead, you'll have to wait until filing next year's taxes -- and there's no guarantee that current tax credits and rebates will still be available then. Shop smart and buy today!
