@larbo17 It looks like you are filing as self-employed?  If you used your vehicle in your business, they will want to know mileage at a minimum (note: IRS would very much like you to keep a mileage log during the year if so, and there are some smartphone apps that can help simplify that).  Here's some expert advice written by TurboTax on vehicle use in your own business: https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tips/small-business-taxes/business-use-of-vehicles/L6hi0zzzh
