Section 179 Deduction Limit Increased to 1.16 million for 2023!
Almost every business equipment purchase your company makes (up to $500,000 $1,160,000) qualifies for a Section 179 deduction. These purchases may include vehicles, computers and—you guessed it—GPS tracking devices.
Businesses are often forced to shoulder a large portion of the country’s tax burden. While this can put a significant strain on business owners, the good news is that there are several ways they can use tax codes to their advantage. Fleet businesses, in particular, can benefit from both Section 179 deductions and fuel tax savings.
In addition to the many savings GPS tracking offers your fleet, it may also qualify as a tax deduction under Section 179.

Fuel Tax Savings
The fuel cost savings fleets experience with GPS tracking are well documented. But, what about fuel tax savings? With the accuracy of GPS state mileage data, you will never pay more in fuel taxes than you really owe again.
GPS Trackit’s ProMiles® Integration allows companies to easily create IFTA-compliant reports while minimizing the potential for recording errors. Mile-to-kilometer and gallon-to-liter conversions are processed automatically, ensuring fuel reporting accuracy.
IFTA reporting errors don’t just put your compliance status in jeopardy—they can mean big losses for your business in the form of fuel tax costs.
