Considerations When Leasing a Truck

There’s a wide variety of truck types and features that will impact the sales price for your truck lease (the capitalized cost). The lower the cap cost, the lower your monthly payments.

Here are some considerations:

Truck Features

• The truck bed. A truck’s pickup bed separates its contents from the passengers. This is especially handy when carrying dirty items, like dirt, gravel, garbage, etc.
• Towing and hauling. Pickups are ideal for towing, and they offer high-torque engines that allow you to haul more.
• Fuel-efficiency. Trucks are gas guzzlers and as you increase size, fuel economy goes down. Check out some of our picks for the most fuel-efficient trucks.
• Driving comfort. Trucks provide ample legroom, which is ideal for taller drivers or those who drive long distances.
• Navigating snow. Trucks have additional clearance and often have four-wheel drive, which allows you to handle deep snow without an issue.
• Body type: Pickup trucks come in 3 main types based on the size of the passenger cabin: regular cab, extended cab, and crew cab. A regular cab has two doors and one row of seats with very limited space behind the seats. An extended cab has two doors and two rows of seating, but the second row is smaller and provides limited legroom. And a crew cab has four doors and a spacious second row.

Truck Sizes

• Midsize pickup trucks: Starting in the mid $20,000 range, midsize pickups are smaller pickups that are great for daily driving but still provide the capability for hauling, towing, and off-roading when necessary. Most come in two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations and have a towing capacity of 5,000 to 7,000 pounds.
• Full-size pickup trucks: These trucks start in the mid $30,000 range. They are raised higher off the ground and include a large passenger area. They have four-wheel or all-wheel drive that can navigate the most difficult terrain. They offer an average towing capacity of 10,000 to 13,000 pounds.
• Heavy-duty pickup trucks: These are ideal for those with extensive towing needs. If you own a boat, RV, or outdoor riding equipment then this may be the one for you. Similar in size to full-sized trucks, heavy-duty trucks can tow 17,000 to 37,000 pounds. They begin in the $40,000 to $50,000 range.

Is It a Business or Personal Use Truck?

If you are planning to use the truck for commercial purposes like construction, landscaping, delivery, or utility work, you are likely to gain a tax benefit from leasing. However, if it is a mixed use vehicle, only the business driving portion of your vehicle will count in the eyes of the IRS.

Be sure to talk to your accountant to see if you qualify for a tax write-off from your truck lease, maintenance, or operational costs.
