The answer will depend on a number of things, are you a corp if so what type, how did your accountant set up your asset accounts.

This is only true if you are leasing the vehicle. If you (or the Corp.) own the vehicle, then only the interest is deductible.
Basically accurate, but like other say, this is why accountants have jobs and it's a good investment to pay one.
