Might be one of these "paid to drive" deals.....

Get Paid To Drive: Auto Wrap Free Car Companies
Note: We have a bit more extensive information on the reality of the auto wrap industry at our sister website PaidToDriveAutoWrap.com

You may have heard rumors that it's possible to get paid to drive your car, or in some cases, get a car to use for free. While participation is limited and luck is needed along with living in the right place for a particular campaign, it is possible to get paid to have your car (or a car given to you) turned into a moving advertisement. If you drive 800 miles or more a month along heavily populated routes in your normal driving habits, you may want to check out the companies that offer car wraps.

The concept is fairly simple. Advertising space on billboards along busy roads and highways is limited and in some places not allowed at all. It's possible, however, to reach many of those people another way. Companies advertise on the outside of cars to reach those same people. The problem is that purchasing an entire fleet of cars for an advertising campaign can be overly expensive, so a solution was developed.

Instead of purchasing their own cars, companies will sometimes "rent" space on individual private citizen's cars. In return for letting a company "wrap" your car with their advertisement, they will pay you a monthly fee. The fees can be as high as $400 a month for a full car wrap and lesser amounts for a partial car wrap or a window wrap.

Another option that some of these companies offer in place of car wraps is giving you a free car with advertisements already on it. You usually don't get paid in this deal or get to choose the type of car provided, but you do receive free use of the car for the period of the campaign. Your only costs are gas and insurance meaning that you are getting transportation at a fraction of the cost of owning your own car. There are some rare cases when you can get paid when receiving a free car. Some companies will pay you to drive the free cars along certain, specified routes each day.

So what is the catch? The main one is there are far more drivers wanting the positions than advertising campaigns available. If you don't drive a lot of miles or live in a highly populated area (large college campuses seem to be an ideal location) where the advertisement will be seen by a population the advertisers crave, your chances of being chosen are slim. Most companies require you to drive a minimum of 800 miles a month. Not driving enough miles can negate the contract and most companies utilize global positioning systems (GPS) in your car to track the miles and places you go each month.

I'm intrigued by the red car in the first pic, just above the hood... kinda looks like a DeLorean, but it's not... some kind of kit car maybe?

It's interesting you say that, I was wondering the same thing when I saw it in person. At first it looked like a Lamborghini Countach from a far, but as it got closer it looked like a kit car trying to be a Lambo and a DeLorean. It wasn't nice in person lol.

Nice design job on the Camaro. Remove the Domino's logo and it's a nice looking ride.

If the people who prepare your pizza do a bad job "buttering" the crust, you are still unfortunately left with the original cardboard crust. Oh well. I'm not falling for their "new and improved chicken" campaign!

I'll give them credit for being creative though. I am willing to bet that the owner of the car got to write off the car as a business expense, or even better the car was bought using company money. When they remove the stickers in a year, he'll have quite the fun car!
Couldn't agree more about their pizza!!!!!!!..........Nice car though
