If we are talking about the vehicle purchased in 2011, the question is whether you are looking at the 2011 Form 4562, line 25.  If so, and if there is $8,800 on the tax return for the special depreciation deduction, then it would appear that number is the amount you used for depreciation that year. 

 

If that is in fact the case, then it would appear you used up all of the business portion of the cost basis. The indication is that the vehicle was 66.7% business use the year placed in service.  It's also possible that if it dropped there may have been some recapture of part of that depreciation.  You should review each tax return to find the depreciation for each succeeding year and add them all together, reduced for any possible recapture to find the total.
