Financing FAQs

What are the Advantages of a Loan?

Choosing to finance with a shuttle bus loan provides you with the opportunity to get the assets you need while preserving capital, gaining tax benefits, and growing your operations.

  • Ownership: When you take out a loan to purchase a shuttle bus, you’ll own the vehicle outright once the loan is fully repaid. This provides you with a valuable asset that adds to your company’s equity and, if needed, can become collateral or sold in the future.
  • Capital Preservation: By financing the purchase of a shuttle bus with a loan, you can preserve your working capital and use it for other business needs rather than tying it up in a single large purchase.
  • Immediate Access to Assets: A shuttle bus loan allows you to acquire the vehicles you need immediately, giving you the ability to put shuttle services into effect as soon as you have equipment in hand. You won’t have to wait until you’ve saved enough money to purchase the shuttles outright to begin generating revenue.
  • Tax Deductions: Many businesses can deduct the interest paid on a loan as an expense. This reduces your tax liability overall and can improve your company’s cash flow.
  • Flexible Financing Options: Shuttle bus loans typically offer flexible financing choices, such as different loan term options and repayment schedules. This lets you select the option that aligns best with your budget and financial objectives.
  • Predictable Payments: When you take out a loan, you usually make fixed monthly payments, which simplifies budgeting and expense planning throughout the loan’s duration.
  • Business Expansion: Having access to financing for a shuttle bus can help you expand your transportation services, attract new customers, and accelerate your business growth faster than if you had to wait until you saved enough cash to buy vehicles outright.

What are the Advantages of a Lease?

Shuttle bus leases are an appealing financing option for many businesses for many reasons, including:

  • Lower Initial Costs: You usually are required to make a smaller down payment with a lease, compared to what you get with a loan. This can help your business keep more capital on hand for other expenses.
  • Better Cash Flow: Leasing allows you to spread out the cost of the shuttle bus over regular lease payments, making it easier to manage your cash flow and budget effectively.
  • Tax Deductions: Lease payments are often tax-deductible, which can give your company tax advantages and reduce overall tax liability.
  • Access Newer Vehicles More Often: With a lease, you can add newer and more technologically advanced shuttle buses to your fleet without having to commit to years-long ownership. You can lease new vehicles when your current leases expire, which enables you to offer the most modern and comfortable shuttle buses to your customers.
  • Flexible Terms: Leases are known for their flexible terms, such as varied lease durations and mileage allowances that align with your business requirements.
  • Maintenance and Service: Many leases have maintenance and service provisions. This takes the responsibility for upkeep and repair costs off your shoulders and your books, while making sure your shuttle buses are in good working order.
  • Preservation of Credit Lines: Keep your existing credit lines open for other business expenses, like expansion or emergencies.
