Commercial truck leases have increased in popularity among fleet owners and growing businesses that prefer minimal equity in company trucks or want to avoid the repair hassles that tend to come with older trucks. Another advantage of leasing is the ability to upgrade your Isuzu trucks more often, taking advantage of advances in fuel economy, driver safety and functional efficiencies. Plus, a sharp looking new truck can be good for your company image.
As an authorized Isuzu truck dealer, Frank’s can offer you the best lease deals available from Isuzu Finance of America, including the popular Isuzu iLease which we’ll explain below.
If you’ve leased a commercial truck before, you know there are two leasing options– TRAC and FMV (Fair Market Value). While the main difference between the two is the breakdown of the payment structure, each lease has a few nuances to consider before you decide.
Other types of businesses, especially those that put a lot of wear and tear or mileage on their trucks, might prefer a TRAC Lease (also known as a Terminal Rental Adjustment Clause) which has no wear-and-tear or mileage restrictions. Another potential advantage of a TRAC Lease is that you can choose from multiple terms and various residuals, giving you more options for a monthly payment that works within your budget. At lease-end, you are responsible for the residual, but can still lease a new Isuzu truck, refinance, or purchase the truck for its residual value.
The in-house finance team at Frank’s Isuzu Truck is happy to help you compare both options and structure a lease that meets your unique truck financing goals. Contact us when you’re ready to talk.
Frank’s Isuzu is a part of Frank’s Truck Center, which has been family-owned and operated since 1930. We take pride in serving customers in Lyndhurst, Newark, Jersey City and Edison, New Jersey, and The Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island and Long Island in in New York, and surrounding areas.
There is not always a clear “better” option between the two types, as the decision will often come down to which lease best fits your business. TRAC leases allow for unlimited mileage and a flexible residual amount. A FMV lease is the better option for customers looking for a truck with predictable, low monthly payments, and those who want a new truck more often.
You can return your truck and lease a new Isuzu, purchase or refinance using Isuzu Finance top-rated refinance programs for qualified customers.
