If you Sold (or Traded In) a Business Vehicle, in the Vehicle Expenses section, indicate that you 'stopped using it for business' and the date.
Depending on how long you have used the vehicle for business, and how much you received for the Sale (or Trade-In), you may have a gain to report.
If you claimed Actual Expenses for the vehicle, TurboTax will fill in the Prior Depreciation amount for you.
If you claimed Standard Mileage, you will calculate the Prior Depreciation, based on year and number of miles claimed.

This determines if you have a gain to report. If the vehicle was used over five years, it is fully depreciated and you can enter the same amount as the Cost of the Vehicle.
