Default Do older cayenne base models meet weight requirment for 179 deduction/suv loophole

Does anyone know if there is a table of gwvr for later model cayennes?

Specifically I am wondering if the base 6cyl cayenne will meet the requirments for the small business tax deduction commonly called the suv loophole.

If I remember correctly, its gross weight has to be 6000lbs in order to qualify for the write off.

Yes.. GVWR, I had a backwards in first post. "Typically the GVWR is equal to the sum of the vehicle's curb weight and payload capacity."

if no one knows I plan to check out some 2004s-2008s and will post what I find..

GVWR varies by generation and engine. But even the 3rd generation six cylinders are rated at 6096 (GVWR). Given that the T3 is >400 pounds lighter than previous Cayennes, it should be safe to conclude that any/all Cayennes are rated with a GVWR in excess of 6000 pounds.
