RE: Tax credit? (was:RE: (ET) Think Spring)

["Casey, Jack" <Jack Casey dowjones com>]

I tried and failed to get a tax credit in 2000 when I restored an E12.
Checked again with my CPA...the 
Feds are talking about cars and other over-the-road vehicles.  JJC

Paul,
        Speaking of battery packs, I heard a very brief blurb on the
radio the other day that might be of interest to the group. It was just
in passing, but I *thought* it mentioned that the Federal Government was
providing a tax-credit incentive to promote alternative energy. Said
incentive would allow up to $2000 deduction for alternative-energy
transportation expenditure.
        Does anyone within earshot (the EV-ers, particularly) know the
specifics of this? Would an electric tractor qualify as
'transportation'? Would a new battery pack (which I'd like, also) fall
in the permissible deductions?

Thanks,

Hey guys, 
I'm thinking spring with a new battery pack of Trojan
T-105s for my C-185.

Speaking of batteries, checkout the Trojan website at
http://www.trojanbattery.com/ Under Tech Support is great info on
battery maintenance.

Thanks,
