Sheepdog,
How much money you can make delivering pizza depends on many things - the vehicle you use in relation to your mileage reimbursement, the tips in certain delivery areas, the amount of business the store gets, the hours you work, and much more.
Some drivers will make minimum wage or worse (if they aren't reimbursed enough for their vehicle expenses). Some drivers will make $10-$15/hr. The really good drivers in certain delivery areas can make $20+/hr. These numbers are after expenses.
There are a lot of details I can go into, but I don't want to take up too much of this thread talking about the details of how to make decent money delivering pizza. If you want to know more, let me know, and I will send you a PM about it.
I do not use a car topper (rooftop sign). Not only does it create more drag, it also makes me a target for potential robberies and can damage the paint. I don't deliver in a risky area, but I don't want to take the chance. Very little business results from car topper advertisement anyway. Luckily my manager doesn't make a big deal about it, and if she did, I'd use a window sign and leave the light off and let if fall off (oops, didn't notice).
By the way, the people driving gas guzzlers probably don't make a lot of money (maybe $10/hr. on average), because most pizza companies don't reimburse their drivers enough to cover the full expenses of gas guzzlers. Also, there are some drivers who deliver as a part-time job to supplement other forms of income, so it isn't a big deal, even though if they found an inexpensive fuel efficient vehicle it would probably pay for itself.
