If I rent a car from Uber through Hertz, can I deduct the cost of the rental, and take the mileage deduction at the same time? That's a huge expense renting a car for $300 a week. The mileage deduction is fine for covering your gas or charging expenses, but doesn't begin to help with gas, charging, and a rental. It sounds like we would be better off itemizing everything including the rental, verses just taking the standard mileage deduction?
