Deductions & credits

No, you cannot write off the truck payment, but you can take a deduction for depreciation (spreads the deductible amount over years) or the standard mileage deduction.  You can also deduct the interest portion of the loan- you may have to calculate what part is business interest if you use the truck for both work and personal (just apply a percentage).
