Section 179 Tax Deduction

Could your business use more than $2.5 million in tax deductions? Section 179 of the current tax code allows you to write off up to $2,560,000 when you purchase, finance or lease new or used trucks and trailers. Plus, you may still be able to take qualifying bonus depreciation as well! The deadline is December 31, so check out our current inventory to get your biggest tax savings.

How Section 179 Works

The main purpose of Section 179 is to reward businesses for investing in themselves by purchasing equipment needed to grow their business. You add equipment while keeping more of your hard-earned money.  

When you purchase qualifying trucks and trailers from Stellar and place them in service between January 1 and December 31, you can deduct up to $2,560,000. To get the full amount, the maximum you can spend in one year is $4,000,000. The amount of your deduction is based on the amount you spend on equipment and your business’s tax bracket. Section 179.org provides complete details along with a handy calculator that helps you see your deduction as well as calculations for any bonus depreciation you may receive. 

Note: The Section 179 deduction is subject to the annual inflation adjustments and legislative changes. The amounts shown on this page reflect the law in effect for tax year 2026.
