Ok, I'm just jumping in here and sorry I'm going to give it to you straight. I am currently on a personal vehicle program where I am paid mileage. I have been in the past where my vehicle was a flat rate of $750/mo plus all fuel. Tires/oil changes/wipers and all the other upkeep came from the $750. At this point, both aspects suck!!!!!!!!!
The IRS has recently dropped the reimbursement schedule to $0.50/mile and our company pays us a rate of $0.75. Thus, I pay taxes on the extra quarter per mile! In the past, I made money on vehicles using them for work. Now, that is no longer the case. I will be going back to a company truck at the first available chance I get.
BTW- How can you be in Venice and Cameron on the same day? As a manager, that sticks out like a sore thumb!
