Yes, you may be able to deduct the mileage for both vehicles...
If you moved due to a change in your job or business location, or because you started a new job or business, you may be able to deduct your reasonable moving expenses but not any expenses for meals. You can deduct your moving expenses if you meet all three of the following requirements:
Move Related to Start of Work - Your move must
closely relate both in time and in place to the start of work at your
new location. You can consider moving expenses incurred within one
year from the date you first reported to work at the new location
as closely related in time to the start of work. A move generally
relates closely in place if the distance from your new home to the
new job location isn't more than the distance from your former home
to the new job location.
The distance test - Your new workplace must be at least 50 miles farther from your old home than your old job location was from your old home. If you had no previous workplace, your new job location must be at least 50 miles from your old home.
The time test - If you're an employee, you
must work full-time for at least 39 weeks during the first 12 months
immediately following your arrival in the general area of your new
job location. If you're self-employed, you must work full time for
at least 39 weeks during the first 12 months and for a total of at
least 78 weeks during the first 24 months immediately following your
arrival in the general area of your new work location. There are exceptions
to the time test in case of death, disability, and involuntary separation,
among other things.
If you use your car to take yourself, members of your household, or your personal effects to your new home, you can figure your expenses by deducting either:
Your actual expenses, such as the amount you pay for gas and oil for your car, if you keep an accurate record of each expense; or
The standard mileage rate of 19 cents a mile
Figure moving expenses on Form 3903, Moving Expenses, and deduct as an adjustment to income on Form 1040, U.S. Individual Income Tax Return.
You can't deduct any moving expenses covered
by reimbursements from your employer that are excluded from your income.
