Yeah just because you’re an electrician for your day job doesn’t mean you need to own a pickup to drive to the company office where you’ll drive a company truck to job sites.

I was more thinking contractors or farmers who use their own truck for work. Not people using company trucks

Sure, if you’re a contractor using your own truck then you should be reimbursed by the company hiring you, which should offset the tax. If you’re a farmer, same thing, unless you own the farm, in which case your truck should be licensed as a commercial vehicle

I'm just trying to get the idea passed people and those two groups are always the ones sea lioned about.

I'm on a site with about 500 electricians right now. The vast majority of them don't drive company trucks. It's really just foremen, the general foreman, superintendent and various project managers and higher-ups.
