I moved in 2016, can I deduct mileage for each vehicle that was driven to my new home?

As long as the number of vehicles is less than or equal to the drivers in your household then it should be fine to deduct the mileage for more than one vehicle. 

Based on the IRS Publication 521 Moving Expenses, you can deduct either standard mileage ($0.19 per mile) or actual expenses for travel by car when moving. 

I did not find any restrictions regarding the number of vehicles that you can drive to your new location and be able to deduct the mileage.  However, there is a restriction based on the number of trips and number of members of your household.  So, if the number of vehicles is less than or equal to the number of drivers in your household then the miles should be deductible.

Here is a link to the IRS Publication 521 for your reference:  https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p521.pdf
