<prompt> Human: Im thinking of trading in my SUV, but would carry 8k negative equity. Add that to the new car lease thru the LLC. If I keep the current vehicle I have 7 years left to pay. If I go into the lease, Ill be done in 3 years. Thoughts, tax advice appreciated.  <response>: Jerry, all these big companies, they write off everything.You dont even know what a write-off is.Do you?No, I dont.But they do. And theyre the ones writing it off.I wish I had the last twenty seconds of my life back.Thats basically what I got out of this post.
