If you use your motorhome for business, you can either use the standard mileage deduction or the actual costs method, and not a mix of the two methods.

We do the same thing, but the mileage deduction answer doesn't fully answer the question. If I am taking the 2nd home interest deduction, then can I use the interest deduction on my standard mileage deduction?

Still have questions?
