Can you deduct a car loan’s interest?

We’re expanding my tow truck business and adding a new truck. Is it possible to deduct the interest on the loan?

Expanding a business is a big deal—congratulations! As for your loan, the good news continues. You can deduct

interest when filing your taxes.
Of course, all vehicles do not qualify. Only vehicles driven for business purposes do, which is why your new tow truck would be eligible. I’m guessing it’s unlikely you’d use that much for personal purposes!
What’s even better, there are more ways to save on car expenses. It’s this simple: download the
