I use my personal vehicle from time to time for work. Can I deduct those miles from my taxes? I also purchased a GPS, because I dont know the roads here in missouri and I drive about 3k miles a month for work.Can I deduct that as well?

yes, you can deduct a cents-per-mile for miles driven in a POV for work purposes. You need to keep a milage log to log the miles you drive for work purposes. It needs to have the date, start times, end times, start milage, and end milage for each 'work trip.' The Government will give you a certain amount of deduction per mile (changes yearly).
For the GPS unit: if it is used solely for work, it can be deducted as a work expense. If you also use it for private / personal use, then you must figure out the percentage of time it is used for personal use vs. work. Your deduction will depend upon the percentage of use for work purposes.
