    Some cargo van jobs run all over the country.
    Just one example is Panther Premium and that's just one of many.

    He can do that with a cargo van. In fact, that's what Panther prefers.

    MAYBE reposition rental cars. Your car has no payload. No payload means no customer.

    There might be A PERSON somewhere in the country getting paid to drive a car 500 miles per day. That's a pretty small job market.
     
    Grumppy and motocross25 Thank this.

    What I see is a minivan, destined for auction or buy-here pay-here, towing 3 4-wheelers destined for auction etc. It does not look like it is paying anything for that job. I don't know.

    Car auction are pretty widespread. Why/who is driving lots of miles for an auction?
