Owner operator miles driven

I am an owner operator truck driver.  I have turbo tax home and business.  I started as an independent contractor October 1st of last year.  First time using turbo tax as a business.  I pay a montly fee from the owner to use the truck.  Its a lease but not a lease to own.  Turbo tax asks me how much the truck is worth and what I pay for the lease.  If I don't plan on buying the truck why does it matter what it is worth?  Next question turbo tax asks me is total miles driven for the year.  I cant deduct miles as a business expense since my job is driving.  Do I leave it blank or put in the total miles driven for the year as an owner operator?
