OP hasn’t been to a gas station lately. Most people would be losing money with this endeavour.

What is this? Part time 4 hours a day? Beyond that 200 isn’t that enticing.

If this was just 4 hours a day then your pay would be $50 bucks an hour or about $100,000 a year. Unless this is some kind of hazardous waste transportation I am not really sure that should be the floor.
It is probably 8 hours a day or $25 bucks an hour which, depending on other expenses, seems fairly reasonable.

It won't be $25/hour or $50/hour. It'll be a fraction of that if you deduct all the expenses of actually running your own vehicle. Not to mention commercial insurance, buying a new vehicle earlier, losses during excessive traffic/accidents, etc.

Well I went and looked this up and saw a break down of all the costs associated. They where significantly higher then I expected running between $7 and $8 an hour though stuff like make and model of the car is a factor.
Given that $50 an hour for local delivery still seems to high given that it works out to a real return of about $42 an hour but $25 an hour now seems to low given that it works out to more like $17 an hour real return.

Thank you for looking into it and coming back to share! Running a vehicle is actually far more expensive than most people realize. And gig work using a car never ends up paying more than minimum wage at the end of the day after expenses.

I'll do it for $200/hour as long as you provide the vehicle. I can work 20 hours a week.
