@aclsmb1smbacl as posted elsewhere, I suspect the 'aquisition date' becomes important because used vehicles will be eligible for the tax credit under certain circumstances. on a new vehicle it's the "placed in service' date that is really applicable, but on a used vehicle, the 'placed in service' date could have been years ago, so it's the 'aquisition date' that is important.
What date are you the legal owner of the vehicle?
