No. TurboTax will do the calculations based on how you answer the questions.

 

To clarify one thing about what you are allowed to do with your vehicle expenses and choices:

  1. If you use the actual expenses the first year you place a vehicle in service for business you can never use the standard mileage rate for that vehicle.
  2. If you use the standard mileage rate the first year a vehicle is placed in service you can alternate each year to use the standard mileage rate or actual expenses, whichever is best.

Both of our amazing Tax Experts @MayaD and @ErnieS0 pointed this out however I wanted to be sure you clearly understood your options.
