PEORIA, Ariz., Dec. 21, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Mercedes-Benz Arrowhead Sprinter, a Phoenix-area dealership that retails new and used Mercedes-Benz work vans, is promoting the last chance for customers to earn a Section 179 tax deduction on their van purchase.

PEORIA, Ariz., Dec. 21, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Mercedes-Benz Arrowhead Sprinter, a Phoenix-area dealership that retails new and used Mercedes-Benz work vans, is promoting the last chance for customers to earn a Section 179 tax deduction on their van purchase. Customers in the area are encouraged to make their van purchases by the end of the year so that they can earn a significant tax deduction when they file their taxes in 2021. Section 179 of the I.R.S. tax code offers small businesses a tax deduction on the cost of qualifying business vehicles, which include Mercedes-Benz vans.

Qualifying customers are those who are purchasing the van as a business expense during the 2020 tax year. The equipment must be put into service before the end of the year in order to qualify for a tax deduction, which gives customers a week and a half to take advantage of this temporary offer. Customers are encouraged to visit as soon as possible to start the process.

The Mercedes-Benz van purchase will qualify for a tax deduction if it is used for business purposes for more than 50% of the time. That means that small and large businesses in the area will qualify for the deduction, but they need to use the van for deliveries, moving equipment or some other business-related role. Drivers can use the van for personal use as long as it does not exceed 50% of the time. The tax deduction also applies to businesses that have spent less than $3,500,000 on equipment this year.

To learn more about the deduction, customers can contact the dealership or visit the dealership in person or online at arrowheadmbsprinter.com.

Kia K5 Picks Up CarBuzz’s 2020 People’s Car Award

IRVINE, Calif., Dec. 21, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The all-new Kia K5 has been named a winner in CarBuzz’s 2020 People’s Car Awards, which recognizes the best all-around vehicle selling for less than the average new car transaction price. This year, editors pegged that price at around $38,000 in the U.S., but the boldly designed and turbocharged K5 undercuts that by thousands – in even the top-trim level.

IRVINE, Calif., Dec. 21, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The all-new Kia K5 has been named a winner in CarBuzz’s 2020 People’s Car Awards, which recognizes the best all-around vehicle selling for less than the average new car transaction price. This year, editors pegged that price at around $38,000 in the U.S., but the boldly designed and turbocharged K5 undercuts that by thousands – in even the top-trim level. 

Kia K5 picks up CarBuzz’s 2020 People’s Car Award.

«A lot has changed with Kia over the last decade in terms of design and performance, but the incredible value we offer to our customers will never change,» said Sean Yoon, president & CEO, Kia Motors America, Kia Motors North America. «The K5 had big shoes to fill, but our team of designers and engineers were more than up to the task and we’re honored the driving enthusiasts at CarBuzz have recognized the hard work.» 

New for the 2021 model year, the K5 is the brand’s most powerful mid-size sedan ever with turbocharged engines across the board, available all-wheel drive, and a technology-packed premium interior that’s not far off from what you’d find inside a much higher priced luxury vehicle.

«The K5 proves that the sedan still holds an important place in a crossover-dominated market,» said CarBuzz Senior Editor, Jared Rosenholtz. «After driving the new K5, we came away impressed with its unique style, well-organized interior, premium materials, sporty driving manners, and outstanding safety technology. Unlike the Optima before it, the K5 offers optional all-wheel drive, opening it to new customers in colder climates who would have otherwise only considered a crossover. The addition of the sporty GT model with 290 horsepower and 311 pound-feet of torque will even give enthusiasts something to lust over at an affordable price point. We think the K5 offers the best blend of features and fun on a budget, making it the clear winner of this year’s People’s Car category.»

The K5 starts at $23,490, with the premium K5 EX starting at $27,990 and the sporty GT model priced at $30,490. For more information on CarBuzz’s People’s Car, visit https://carbuzz.com/cars/kia/k5.

NFL Enters Week 16 on Historic Scoring Pace, According to TheLines

LAS VEGAS, Dec. 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — The NFL will offer plenty of offense this Christmas, with two of the top offenses in the league set to square off and four games with an over/under set at 51.5 points or more in Week 16. So many high point totals shouldn’t be a surprise, according to analysts from TheLines, which tracks odds in…

LAS VEGAS, Dec. 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — The NFL will offer plenty of offense this Christmas, with two of the top offenses in the league set to square off and four games with an over/under set at 51.5 points or more in Week 16. So many high point totals shouldn’t be a surprise, according to analysts from TheLines, which tracks odds in U.S. regulated sports betting markets. In fact, the NFL is on a historic scoring pace.

Sunday night’s game between the Tennessee Titans, which leads the NFL with 31.1 points per game, and Green Bay Packers, which is third at 31 points per game, promises two of the most prolific scoring teams in the NFL. Total points for the game as of Monday morning is 56, according to a consensus of the nation’s largest legal online sportsbooks — including DraftKings, FanDuel, PointsBet, PlaySugarHouse, BetMGM, Unibet, and William Hill. No game has offered more points this season.

But games offered at 50 total points or more have not been uncommon this year. In fact, there were five such games in Week 15 alone. Points have been up significantly all year. Through the first 15 weeks, NFL teams are averaging 24.8 points per game, up dramatically from 22.8 points per game in 2019. Barring a points outage over the season’s final games, it should break the scoring average record of 23.6 points per team per game, set in 1948.

«In a season of anomalies, we may never see so many high point totals again,» said Brett Collson, lead analyst for TheLines.com. «There are so many reasons why scoring is up, and many of them are related to the pandemic, from fewer distractions with teams being in relative isolation to quiet stadiums helping road teams stay in sync. Regardless, oddsmakers continue to do well in making adjustments.»

The consensus point spreads for Week 16 and remaining Week 15 games, as of Monday, Dec. 21:

  • Pittsburgh Steelers (-14.5) at Cincinnati Bengals; over/under 40.5
  • Minnesota Vikings at New Orleans Saints (-7); over/under 51.5
  • Tampa Bay Buccaneers (-9) at Detroit Lions; over/under 53.5
  • San Francisco 49ers at Arizona Cardinals (-3.5); over/under 49.5
  • Miami Dolphins (-2.5) at Las Vegas Raiders; over/under 47.5
  • Carolina Panthers at Washington Football Team (-1.5); over/under 44.5
  • Chicago Bears (-7) at Jacksonville Jaguars; over/under 47
