Yes, if you paid sales tax on your new truck, be sure to enter that under the Sales Tax section.

Also, if you use your truck for business (as an employee or for your own business), you may be able to take a mileage deduction for your business use.

If you're curious to know if you qualify for any deduction, try entering the information in TurboTax and the program will evaluate your answers to provide the best outcome for your tax situation.

The easiest way to find any section in TurboTax is to go to My Account >> Tools >> Topic Search. Type in your topic, then click the topic in the list to go directly to the start of this section.
