Y'all get to deduct your property and state taxes when doing federal tax?
No wonder y'all run around with over bloated trucks and campers.

If your camper is nice enough it can be a second home (boat too) and
you get to write off the interest on the loan.
None of that helps me tho. No state tax and I don't owe any money.

I thought about that, but paying cash was a much better deal. My credit card was giving a 2% rebate,
so I told the dealer I wanted to put the trailer on my credit card. He gave me an astonished look
and went to check with his finance folks. Told me the max they'd let me do is $10K. I said OK, I'll
give you $10K now and pay you the rest when I pick it up. Then I put another $10K on the card. He
wouldn't let me go any further.
