FINANCING WORKSHEET

Compare the whole acquisition

Start with the truck, taxes and transaction costs, then reserve cash for inspection, transport, registration, immediate service and working capital. Compare the annual rate, term, payment frequency, fees, security, early-payout terms and total borrowing cost in writing.

New versus used truck financing

Compare purchase price, equipment age, warranty position, immediate repair budget and expected time in service. Provider criteria and available terms vary.

Loans versus leases

Ask about ownership, end-of-term obligations, early payout, permitted use and tax treatment. Obtain advice specific to your business.

Questions to ask a provider
