In North America the term recreational vehicle, and its acronym RV, are generally used to refer to a vehicle equiped with living space and amenities found in a home. A recreational vehicle normally includes a kitchen, a bathroom, a bedroom and a living room.

RVs are intended for everything from brief leisure activities such as vacations and camping, to full-time living, for which they are often parked in special trailer parks. (However, many trailer parks are reserved just for mobile homes, not to be confused with RVs and motorhomes.) RVs can also be rented in most major cities and tourist areas.

Furthermore, they are occasionally used as mobile offices for business travelers and often include customizations such as extra desk space, an upgraded electrical system, a generator, and satellite Internet.

Recreational vehicle purchase for volunteer work tax deduction?
Q. I want to buy a RV and will use it 100% for volunteer activities. Can I write it off as an expense. I want to deduct the full purchase price or maybe depreciate it. If not, can I incorporate as a private non-profit and then deduct it that way?

A. The IRS is not going to be pleased about this if you deduct the full purchase of your RV. They will think you're stealing from them. Only if you come up with at least 2 percent in extra deductions out of your pocket. This will account for your supplies, the equipment that you will use, the food, mileage, or other extra-curricular activities your volunteering work needs. You are actually creating a business this way. If the business is for non-profit, then more of your monetary proceeds will go to your cause and can get written as a write off. You also have to pay tax too if you are only giving 10 percent to your volunteering cause and the rest of the 90 percent is given to you. You can open barbecues in front of grocery stores for… [cont.]

What is the depreciable tax class life of an RV (recreational vehicle)?
Q. We have searched several tax research sources and can find no definative answer. Has anyone had experience depreciating an RV?

A. It's 5-year MACRS property. You probably can't take a Section 179 deduction, though, because the vehicle would have to be under a certain weight limit - I think 6,000 pounds.
