PIB TIP: RESEARCH LEASING. Before you lease a truc

PIB TIP: RESEARCH LEASING. Before you lease a truck, get a cost comparison between an outright purchase and a lease from different dealers. Have your accountant assess each one. Make your lease term as short as possible and know what happens at the end of the lease. If there are mileage limits, make sure they are well within the mileage plans of your operation.
