The only way to rake it in is to rig the books.
Many jobs that pay miles, pay less in drive pay. For example I wanted to go into pest control. They pay x for an hour for a service call and y an hour to drive their truck or y+per mile to drive your vehicle.
In the end it paid more to do service calls, than drive to service calls.
Now for newspaper delivery it can help to own a eco car, but you need to be able to haul 400+ news papers and deliver them in a short time frame.
The nice thing about papers, you can cheat and deliver for several brands at the same time and get paid 2-3 times.
