Don?t Trade in That Suv Yet

          Gas prices continue to soar, your SUV gets 16 mpg, and your paycheck isn’t increasing.  Consumers feeling their pockets getting empty are starting to ask questions.  Could the high gas prices just be temporary? If not, then I guess it’s time to trade the SUV in and get a fuel efficient vehicle, right?  Actually that might not be the smartest idea.  In order to answer these questions we need to understand the current SUV situation and determine what this means financially.     

            Sport Utility Vehicles (SUV’s) have become the norm for a vehicle purchase over the last 10-15 years.  As many cars became smaller over this timeframe compared to the cars in the 1970’s, people became interested in sport utility vehicles and why wouldn’t they?  These vehicles have plenty of leg room, a large storage area, four-wheel drive, feel very safe due to their size, and are powerful.  One of the biggest selling features is they provide a higher seating position allowing the driver to view more of the road and surroundings. 

Not only did consumers have a desire for SUV’s, but they wanted larger SUV’s.  The big three U.S. vehicle manufacturers, Chrysler, Ford, and GM, were making extremely large profits on these vehicles.  The Ford Excursion, Chevy Suburban, Hummer, GMC Yukon, and Chevy Tahoe are the largest SUV’s on the market.  These vehicles were being bought by families, shuttle drivers, and small business owners.  Due to a tax break many small business owners and mostly anyone who could write off the vehicle as a work related expense became consumers for these enormous vehicles.  They were able to write off almost the entire cost.  This encouraged lawyers, doctors, accountants, and real estate agents to buy these SUV’s, when they really have no use for this type of vehicle.

            The U.S. vehicle manufacturers and consumers were both happy until the one major flaw of SUV’s was magnified.  These vehicles were gas hogs.  Hurricane Katrina started to reveal this flaw in 2005 when this hurricane caused disruption to refineries.  Gas prices soared above $3 a gallon.  Prices would start to come down as the refineries got back into full production, but not down to where they were before the hurricane.  This was due to the price of a barrel of crude oil rising to over $50.  In 2004 the average price of a barrel of crude oil was $37.  This brings us to July 4th, 2008 as the price of a barrel of crude oil is now over $145 and the price of a gallon of gas is over $4. 

            This has caused U.S. vehicles manufacturers to slow down and terminate some SUV lines which have been their most profitable over the last decade.  Consumers are now buying small fuel efficient cars and hybrid vehicles.  The problem for many consumers is they are looking to trade in or sell their SUV’s to purchase a fuel efficient vehicle, but there are not many takers for at least what the consumer feels is fair value.  Typical supply and demand has caused very fuel efficient cars and hybrid vehicles to sell for the ticket price or above.  SUV’s are selling way below ticket price since there are a lot more sellers than buyers.  Vehicle manufacturers are overloaded with SUV’s and the dealerships can’t sell the ones they already have on the lot.            

            Just this data makes it seem foolish to trade or sell a SUV at this time, but the financial numbers is what will really influence the decision.  There are many different situations a consumer might be in.  A consumer who is not able to afford fueling their SUV might need to trade their SUV in.  Perhaps there is no loan against it and the value of the SUV is high enough to get them an equally or lower priced car.  This means they directly cut down their gas expense and haven’t changed their monthly budget. 

            Some examples using numbers can probably give everyone a general idea to help with their decision making.  $30,000 is close to an average cost of a SUV.  To set-up this example we will say John purchased a $30,000 SUV four years ago.  With zero down and a 6% interest rate his payments are $580 a month and he has a current loan balance of $6000.  Let’s also examine Joan who purchased the same year and model SUV for the same amount but her loan is paid off.  Currently, a dealership is offering $9,000 for the SUV.  Therefore each consumer has sunk costs of $21,000.  Also this means John will have to use $6000 of the $9,000 trade in to pay his existing loan.  His balance of $3000 will go towards his new purchase and all of Joan’s $9,000 will be put towards her new purchase.  We will take a look at these situations in two different ways.    

            First we will look at the situations by monthly budget.  Since car payments are monthly payments we need to determine how much money is spent on gas each month.  We will use the current average U.S. gasoline price of $4 a gallon.  Joan’s roundtrip to her full-time job each day is 30 miles.  On the weekend she drives on an average 100 miles.  Therefore, Joan drives 1,000 miles a month.  At 16 miles per gallon she pays $250 a month.  Currently she doesn’t have a monthly car payment so her monthly total for gas and car payment is $250 a month.  Joan is looking to purchase a car which is the same model year as her SUV.  The car costs $15,000, but gets 27 miles per gallon.  After her $9000 SUV trade-in her monthly car payment will be $116 (using 6% interest rate).  Her monthly gas expense will be $150.  This equates to $266 a month for gas and car payment.  Her monthly expense for a car payment and gas is actually higher now which is mainly due to her only getting $9,000 for her SUV. 

John’s roundtrip to his full-time job each day is 60 miles.  On the weekend he drives 100 miles.  Therefore, John drives 1,600 miles a month.  John pays $400 a month in gas.  If John purchases this same car, then his monthly gas expense is $237.  After the $3000 John will be able to put towards his purchase, his car payment is $232.  His total expense for gas and car payment will now be $469.  John will actually save over $100 a month.  However he was in the last year of his SUV payments and now his car payments will continue for five years.   

            The second way we will look at these situations is to determine the break even point.  We can determine how many miles it will take in order to make up for the loss on the SUV.  The loss on the SUV is not the $21,000 sunk cost, but the difference in trade-in value from the time before gas prices skyrocketed to the present time.  The sunk cost has to do with trading in a vehicle for another one.  We won’t use the $21,000 since we are strictly looking at if the SUV is worth trading in just to get better fuel efficiency.  Before there was a large increase in gas prices, a typical SUV like John’s and Joan’s would have a trade-in value around $14,000.  Now the trade-in value is $9,000 which equates to a $5,000 difference.  In using cost accounting we need to determine the sale per mile and the variable cost per mile.  The $4 per gallon gas price needs to be converted to a cost per mile since we need to get the break even point in miles.  The sale per mile is just the SUV’s fuel cost per mile.  This is $4 a gallon divided by 16 miles per gallon which equates to a cost of 25 cents a mile.  The variable cost per mile is the car’s fuel cost per mile.  This is $4 a gallon divided by 27 miles per gallon which equates to a cost of 15 cents a mile.  Next we determine our contribution margin per mile which is the sale per mile of 25 cents minus the variable cost per mile of 15 cents which results in a 10 cents per mile contribution margin.  Finally we use the $5,000 loss and divide by the contribution margin per mile of 10 cents which provides the answer of 50,000 miles.  The break even point of 50,000 miles is the amount of miles that need to be driven in the car to recover the $5,000 loss on the SUV.   To simplify the problem we simply converting both vehicles’ cost of gas per mile and took the difference.  Then we divided the loss on the SUV by this difference.  It will take Joan over 4 years of driving the car to recover the SUV loss at her current usage and it will take John over 2.5 years. 

          The future of the gas prices is unknown which makes the future value of the SUV unknown also.  However, we know the value of an SUV has dropped significantly.  If we could have predicted this drop, then trading in the SUV before this occurrence would have avoided the $5,000 decline in value.  The problem is most SUV owners couldn’t make this prediction so they are presented with the situations we have examined.  In these examples we only looked at the financial numbers which alone didn’t strongly favor trading the SUV in for a car.  Also, like in the stock market, it doesn’t make sense to sell low and buy high which is currently happening when SUV’s are traded in for fuel efficient cars.  When we consider the advantages of a SUV which have led them to their popularity over the years it doesn’t make much sense to give these advantages up.  Perhaps the next time a consumer is ready to buy a new vehicle they won’t purchase a gas guzzling SUV, but for current SUV owners it makes sense to continue to enjoy the great features of these vehicles.

What to Lookout for When Searching for the Right Atv Dealer

What to lookout for when searching for the right ATV dealer

These days there are just too many ATV dealers around – so much so that one could easily get confused with the name “ATV dealer” itself. To some, ATV dealers mean people who distributes ATVs to shops that sells ATVs, while some figures it simply mean that ATV dealers are people who sell ATVs to everyone – from the distributors to the retailers and not forgetting, the end users too. There are some who think that ATV dealers are manufacturers of ATVs as well!

Actually, the term “ATV dealer” may be wide but personally, I feel that as long as you are able to purchase an ATV from them and also get the after sales service that you’d need from them – they can be ATV dealers, ATV distributors, ATV wholesalers, or whatever other names that you can come up with. My biggest concern about buying ATVs is finding the right ATV dealer. What makes an ATV dealer the right one for you? Is it the price of their ATVs or the performance of their ATVs? If you have never bought an ATV before, I am sure that this article will be just the one you need to read – so let’s have a little “chat” on finding the right ATV dealer.

When you go hunting for an adult ATV, you will soon find that adult ATV dealers are a lot easier to find – they are practically everywhere. With a click of the mouse on the internet, you can practically find more than one ATV dealer in almost every state in the country. But, if you are on the lookout for a Kid ATV, it would be better to go to a dealer who specializes in manufacturing and selling ATVs for kids or youth. Yes, it is without doubt that most, if not all, adult ATV dealers also sell ATVs for kids or youth, but they may not be as focused on these items compared to Kid ATV dealers who concentrate on their sales of Kid or youth ATVs. One good place for you to check out is www.kidatv.com When you negotiate with a Kid ATV dealer, you can be assured that they know what they are talking about when they present to you the choices of their Kid ATVs because it is what they do best – selling Kid ATVs. They can even tell you which model would be best for your kid, simply because they are professionals when it comes to selling Kid ATVs.

Another great way to finding the right ATV dealer is by word of recommendation from friends or family members who have bought their ATVs from a reliable source. Before you pick out the ATV dealer to deal with, it is best to ask your friends or family members on the few ATV dealers that you are interested in and see what they have to say about them.

Educate Yourself Before Browsing Bucket Truck Sales

Reviewing bucket truck sales can be interesting because there are so many variations, many of which can help your company take on new projects with confidence. You might think that buying the first bucket truck for sale that appeals to you is a smart move since it means you can get started on new projects right away, but you need to put some thought into this purchase. Buying a truck that has features that you will never use, or perhaps is missing some crucial options, can cause you to waste money on a boom truck that will not help your business after all. To avoid this situation, start browsing bucket truck sales at reputable websites like BucketTrucks.com.

No matter how much you know about boom trucks, it is not a good idea to go through the sales process alone. To make the most of your time and money, you should allow sales staff with real experience using bucket trucks, such as those at BucketTrucks.com, to counsel you before you buy any vehicle. In fact, even if you are planning a bucket truck rental, you should first ensure that it has every feature you need.

Before you purchase any truck, consider the scope of the projects you plan to take on. For example, a job that demands two workers in the air at one time will clearly not work when you use a boom truck with a single-man platform. Perhaps some jobs will require an articulating unit, while others do not. Either way, a little research can go a long way when it comes to bucket truck sales.

You should also be aware that truck operators are expected to adhere to the rules after the initial purchase of the truck. No amount of safety features or perfect performances on operations tests will stop a bucket truck from breaking or harming a worker when grossly misused. Make sure your employees understand the limitations of the unit, boom weight capacities, and the necessary protective gear to be worn, to name a few important guidelines. If you have any questions about a particular bucket truck for sale or the regulations regarding the vehicle, we at Utility Fleet can likely help. That research should include finding out where to get the best sales experience. A truck supplier with a wide selection and knowledgeable staff ready to educate you about the best vehicle for your company is certainly a step in the right direction.

The Energy Efficiency Tax Credit – How to Get It

On Oct. 3, 2008, President George W. Bush signed into law the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008. As part of this piece of legislation, the United States government is offering tax incentives for consumers and businesses to purchase and install certain energy-efficient home improvement products like skylights, hybrid and electric automobiles, and water heating equipment.

Included in the water heating category are tankless water heaters, which are eligible for energy tax credits. Rheem and Takagi are among the qualifying manufacturers.

Energy tax credits of $300 had been available for home improvements placed in service from Jan. 1, 2009 through Dec. 21, 2009. Then, on Feb. 17, 2009, President Obama made two significant revisions to the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act.

He first extended the available energy tax credits through Dec. 31, 2010, then increased the total available tax credit to an equivalent of 30% of the full purchase price and installation price with a cap of $1500.

According to ENERGY STAR, the IRS defines “placed in service” as when the property is ready and available for use. All ENERGY STAR-qualified whole-home gas tankless and gas condensing models with an energy factor of 0.80 or greater WILL qualify.

The qualifier is based on when the unit is placed in service, so units purchased before Jan. 1, 2009 but not yet installed may qualify if installed between Jan. 1, 2009 and Dec. 31, 2010.

Now the bad news.

Any qualified home improvements made in 2008 or earlier are NOT eligible for the energy tax credit. And ENERGY STAR-qualified, high-efficiency gas storage water heaters (those that store water in a large tank) will also NOT qualify. Also, new construction and rentals do NOT qualify.

So, what’s the difference between a tax credit and a tax break? A tax credit is usually more valuable than an equivalent tax deduction, and it directly reduces the taxable amount due dollar-for-dollar. For example, if you receive a $500 tax credit, $500 is subtracted from your overall tax owed, and if you qualify for a refund, your refund will reflect this credit.

On the other hand, a tax break only removes a percentage of the tax you owe by reducing your overall taxable income. So the actual value of the tax break could vary depending on each household’s actual taxable income.

Be sure to save any receipt and manufacturer’s certification statement for tax purposes. And for complete information on products covered by the energy tax credit, visit the ENERGY Star website.

For homeowners, the clock is ticking on when fixtures and appliances should be replaced. With tax incentives, it’s a prudent choice to purchase an energy-efficient upgrade. But ultimately, it’s up to you.

RV Camping For Pleasure and Fun

Camping for most people means a tent and sleeping on a mat on the ground. If that doesn’t really appeal to you, then camping in an RV is what you need. This is the ultimate outdoor adventure.

RV’s come in many sizes and shapes. They start with campers that fit in the back of a pickup truck. These can have full kitchens, beds, a shower and toilet in them.

Next there are van conversions called Class B motorhomes that are basically a cargo van converted into a camping vehicle. Many even have a rasied roof for more head room. These units, like the truck camper, will have the same amenities.

Next up is the Class C motorhome. The front end looks like a pickup truck, but the similarity ends there. There is a sleeper extension over the cab and the back end looks like any motorhome you are probably familiar with. Basically a cargo box with windows, but much prettier. The Class C has all the amenities of home. A kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living room. You could live in a Class C.

The next step us is the Class A motorhome. This is roomiest of all motorized RVs. RVs and motorhomes are like little one bedroom apartments. They are fully self contained. From the queen size bed to a dinette that comfortably seat four, you will find luxury. You even have a microwave oven in addition to a refirgerator and a stove. They can even come with ice makers that can make oper 20 pounds iof ice each day. Party ready!

If that weren’t enough choices, there are still the trailers. First of all, a travel trailer is one you can pull behind a truck or a large SUV. Then the 5th wheel trailer hooks into a hitch in the bed of a pickup truck. Each type of these trailers are as good as the best motorhome. An advantage is they cost a lot less.

You can buy new or used. You should do a lot of reasearch on the Internet whichever way you choose to go. You need to learn as much as you can in regards to RVs. There are RV forums that you can find by doing a search in your favorite search engine.

When you decide that an RV might be for you, attend an RV show or two. There are major RV shows at fairgrounds and stadiums where many dealers and vendors are selling every type of RV there is. There are also local RV shows usually put on by one or two dealers to show and sell some of their inventory.

If you really are not sure you would like to spend $40,000 or $250,000 on a hobby you are not sure you would like, buy a used RV. There are pre-owned RVs you can get into for under $5,000.

Camping in an RV is a fun adventure awaiting you and your entire family.
