"Congress passed a really good piece of legislation, and they did so in a very expeditious manner. The bill I'm signing today is large enough to have an impact -- amounting to more than $152 billion this year, or about 1 percent of GDP. The bill provides temporary tax incentives for businesses to make investments in their companies so that we create new jobs this year. The bill provides individual tax relief in the form of tax rebates. These rebates will amount to as much as $600 for individuals and $1,200 for married couples, with additional rebates for families with children. "
President Bush Signs H.R. 5140, the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008

The Economic Stimulus Act of 2008 provides a significant tax incentive for businesses to purchase automobiles this year. Specifically, the legislation’s “bonus” depreciation provision allows taxpayers to claim significantly larger first-year deductions for 2008 purchases of passenger vehicles, trucks and SUV’s. The rules are complex and any business owner should consult with his/her tax advisor prior to making a decision.

The legislation allows businesses to claim an additional 50% first-year deduction for purchases of qualifying property in 2008. Automobiles of all types are generally treated as qualifying property. Vehicles not subject to the “luxury” auto deduction limits (generally, vehicles with GVWR over 6,000 lbs.) are eligible for the full 50% bonus depreciation benefit.

For vehicles subject to the “luxury” auto limits (vehicles with GVWR up to 6,000 lbs.), the legislation also provides a significant incentive for purchases in 2008. The maximum first-year deduction is increased from $3,060 to $11,060.

We encourage our business customers contact their tax advisors and take advantage of this federal stimulus measure.

Jeep Safari “Jeep engineering has been coming to Moab for years. Mopar is at Moab to test, evaluate and prove the authenticity of our Mopar Performance Parts for Jeep vehicles and Dodge trucks on the most grueling off-road trails in Moab,” said Simon Boag, President – Service & Parts/Mopar, Chrysler LLC. Mopar is Chrysler LLC’s original equipment parts manufacturer and supplier.

Boag added, “We wanted our core off-road customers to talk about their vehicle usage so we can address their unmet needs and identify emerging product trends to better support their off-road adventures. Mopar prepped several vehicles for Moab Jeep Safari to gauge consumer feedback and reaction.”

Overseen by Ralph Gilles, Vice President of Jeep/Truck & CFM Design, Chrysler LLC, the Mopar Underground design team has been customizing production vehicles since its creation in 2002. The Mopar Underground design team creates vehicle concepts meant to develop performance parts, accessories and customization as well as new vehicle concepts. In fact, the first-generation SRT4 was born from this team’s style initiative.

“Our diverse team which changes frequently has been developing SEMA concepts for more than five years. It’s the usual ‘enthusiast’ suspects from our union shops [plastic, paint, metal and wood], Product Design Office, SRT and Mopar Performance Parts and engineering,” said Gilles.

“We try to push the boundaries of conventional thinking—customizing with no limits to creative expression and freedom, just the power to imagine. We want to build customized concept vehicles that flex the potential in our platforms, show that Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge vehicles are indeed designed for customization and keep the Mopar spirit and passion alive,” said Gilles.

Vehicle Customization Industry

  • The 2007 Jeep Wrangler was named one of the most accessory-friendly vehicles by SEMA members
  • According to a Foresight Research report conducted last year [commissioned by SEMA's Research and Information Center], more than 1,700 full-size truck owners revealed that 50 percent had spent or planned to spend $500 or more on accessories—with a high of 63 percent for Dodge Ram owners (most likely to accessorize). And 20 percent of that group said they bought their trucks at a particular dealership because of the availability of accessories
