I believe that position is logically defensible. There is a written
rental agreement which is renewed every so often. Sounds to me like a short
term lease. You might want to check on the IRS standards for what it calls a
lease expense.

They are leasing the cars from their parents so I would sure claim the
expense as a lease e xpense under Lines 23-24 on Form 22A.

Debtors are paying for two vehicles that are titled in the name of their
parents, and the secured debt on the vehicles are in the parents' names aswell. If they enter into a rental agreement with the parents (which is
essentially what the arrangement is), would this be sufficient to allow them to
take the means test deduction for the vehicles in Lines 23-24 on Form 22A?
Anyone ever make that argument?
