Service Tip: In all heavy-duty diesel engines, an initial seat-in/wear-in of the inlet and exhaustvalves takes place. This wear-in affects the balance adjustment of the valve yokes and also decreasesthe valve lash and engine brake slave piston lash. The major amount of this wear-in occurs during thefirst 50,000 miles after which the rate levels off. Readjusting valves at 50,000 miles to specificationswill eliminate component loadings which can result in breakage of the engine brake and valve traincomponents. After the initial adjustment the valve adjustment interval remains at 150,000 miles or4,500 hours. Failure to perform valve adjustment may affect warranty coverage.

“Seeing is believing,” as the saying goes. But when it comes topurchasing a used truck, you nolonger have to “see” the vehicle in person to know what you’regetting for your hard-earned dollars. McDevitt Trucks’ UsedTruck Reconditioning Standards letyou know exactly what to expectfrom any used truck on our lot.

Thanks to the Internet, we’reselling trucks to customers as far away as California and theCaribbean,” says General ManagerJim Lagana. “The standards give a credible, realistic picture of a truck’s condition before a customer travels thousands ofmiles to see it.”

McDevitt’s standards includefour categories. Red-label trucksare great for those who do theirown reconditioning or want atruck for parts. “We’ll completelyde-identify and wash the truck. But no claims are made about thecondition. Red trucks sometimeshave to be towed off the lot! But for the do-it-yourselfer, they’re priced right,” says Lagana.

At the other end of the spectrum are the Gold-labeltrucks. Typically one to two yearsold, McDevitt guarantees that

2009Or

Section 179Deduction '09$250k Limit

Congress has passed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Tax Act of 2009 (2009 Recovery Act), which provides several incentives for business investment in capital and equipment. These provisions extend prior law increases in the limitation on expense deductions for depreciable assets and allowable 50% bonus depreciation on new equipment (not used equipment) for the year it is placed in service. More specifically, the 2009 Recovery Act extends the available expense deduction limitation under Code Sec. 179 of $250,000 (for new or used equipment), and the phase – out amount of $800,000, through tax years beginning in 2009. Bonus depreciation is also extended through 2009 (through 2010 for certain longer-lived and transportation property).

Because these extensions are temporary and generally apply only to tax years beginning in 2009, new purchases should be made and placed in service accordingly. The increased expense deduction will revert back to $125,000 (as indexed for inflation) for qualifying assets after 2009. Further, the $125,000 deduction (as adjusted for inflation) is scheduled to revert back to $25,000 for tax years beginning after 2011. Similarly, in 2010, the phase-out amount, which begins with every dollar spent over $800,000, reverts back to $500,000, as adjusted for inflation, and is scheduled to revert to $200,000 after 2011.

If you have any questions about how this development applies to you, or about any other aspects of this legislation, please contact your tax advisor.

In addition, the Act extends thededuction limit under Code Section179: in 2009, the limit will remain$250,000 on new or used trucks.
