I most likely will have to surrender my 2000 4Runner to the FL bk trustee unless they show mercy on me...my mom became a lienholder on the vehicle but the trustee doesn't want to honor my promissary note.
So...they get a gas guzzling, 2 catalytic converter needing, all belts need help, oxygen sensor deprived, never know when the car is going to "click" start SUV. Now they tell me 2000 was a bad 4runner year...
Since I have to give up an "asset" of a certain value, can I report it as a loss on my tax return for 2006?
I am asking this question due to the fact that I "stupidly" did a settlement offer with Mastercard I think it was MBNA for 60% and they added the $4,500 that I paid to my tax return as income back in 2004 and IRS says that I owe a good $5K+ because I underestimated my income......so now I have outcome...probably $6-7K worth of truck that would definitely help on my tax return!
Maybe?
