State and local real estate taxes levied for the general public welfare are deductible for regular tax, but not for the AMT, if the tax is based on the assessed value of the property and charged uniformly against all property in the taxing authority's jurisdiction.

Used Vehicle Donation Rules
There are strict rules for charitable contributions of used motor vehicles, boats, and airplanes that apply to donations valued at over $500. If these rules are not met, a taxpayer cannot claim a charitable deduction. This article explains how the rules work and how taxpayers can verify their donation of a used vehicle, boat, or plane.
