We get $250/month vehicle allowance that is taxed at the end of the year and we get $.43 a mile when driving somewhere. We are arguing with "upper management" that it isn't nearly enough to compensate for the way we use our vehicles.

I get $650 month and gas card if that helps

This is something we're shooting for. I would much rather have a flat rate of at least $500 a month plus a gas card to use only when on jobs. It sucks that I have to pay for everything out of pocket then wait on my company to reimburse me when I do my expenses.

I won't use mine much for work. I guess it depends on the job description.

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! |

thats bull crap!!! 1ST OFF THE GOVT WRITE OFF IS .55/MILE NOT .43, 250/MO DONT COVER YER GAS AND WEAR N TEAR. JUST FOR AN EXAMPLE I PROBALLY DRIVE 30K MILES A YEAR FOR WORK THAT OVER A 15K WRITE OFF! MY GUYS PULL MY TRAILERS , DRIVE OTHER WORKERS AROUND WHO DONT HAVE CARS ECT.. I FILL THEM UP W/ GAS OR DESIEL EVERY WEEK OR WHEN EVER THEY ASK I KNOW ALL THE GAS I PAY FOR DOSNT GET USED FOR WORK BUT IT SURE BEATS ME HAVING TO GO OUT AND BUY 5 4X4 TRUCKS AND LET THEM DESTROY THEM PLUS THEY ARE 1099 SO THEY CAN WRITE ALL THOSE MILES OFF AT THE END OF THE YEAR . I TAKE CARE OF MY GUYS I WOULD HAVE NOTHING W/O THEM OR THEIR TRUCKS. WHAT KND OF WORK DO YOU DO? I WOULD NOT USE MY TRUCK UNLESS THEY WERE GIVING ME .55/MILE AND PAYING FOR OIL CHANGES ECT... TELL EM TO GET LOST OR GO BUY SOME FLEET TRUCKS
