There are many advantages and disadvantages of truck finance, and it can be daunting to wrap your head around. To help make the decision a little simpler, we have created a list of pros and cons of truck financing.
Purchase a truck today, pay for it tomorrow
The biggest benefit of truck finance is that you can purchase a new or used truck without having to put money down upfront. This allows you to invest your money into something else in your business.
Enhance your credit history
Truck finance allows you to build and improve your credit history. As long as you pay for your repayments on time, your credit score will increase. A good credit score can help you with future finance, like a business loan.
Tax deductions
Since the truck will be for business purposes, the interest payable and running costs can be tax deductible. The amount of the costs you can claim is based on the percentage used for business purposes.
Interest rates and fees
Compared to purchasing a truck outright, you will be required to pay interest and fees over the repayment period. However, rates are quite reasonable, so be sure to shop around for the best deal.
Depreciation
Vehicles are notorious for depreciating in value, and trucks are no exception. In some cases, the amount that you owe can be higher than the market value of the truck, which can be a problem if you want to upgrade mid loan term.
Owned by the bank
If you fail to meet your repayment deadlines, the truck will be at risk of being repossessed by the lender. If this were to happen, it would negatively impact your credit history.
