The IRS allows you to deduct whatever amount per business related mile. If your company requires you to carry their advertisement in a way that makes your vehicle less efficient and they do not reimburse you for that then the requirement is above and beyond the IRS' deduction: it is a penalty for being a XXXX Pizza employee. Either lose it in a ditch every time you hit a speed bump or find some shyster who can spell "class action."

What company? Domino's has a tear-drop shaped one that mounts to the window. Papa's, Domino's, and Gatti's (local) all have arrow shaped ones that mount to the roof.

I worked at Domino's for 2 years, we'd screw around with each other's car. Very lax rules about toppers, but a few times we'd use them to get good parking at businesses. Sticking them on the tailgates of coworkers' trucks and SUVs was always a fun way to screw with each other, since it was out of sight. The magnets were so strong, they never fell.

Having a class action law suit over a pizza sign? Get over it...

Quite the necromancy job on a year old thread. I ended up finding the perfect solution to the placement of the sign.... On the storage rack in the store. I just stopped using it.

That's the most elegant solution.Hope management is okay with that.

We have to have it run across the width of the car (Door to Door) The length and Height dimensions are 16.5" W x 6.38" H. For a picture I found the supplier companies website Mini Quad Car Top Signs. I drive a 1994 Geo Metro 3 cyl 5 speed 2dr hatchback. I am already doing what I can driving wise.

Depending on your area do you really get up to the speed in which it will hurt your fuel economy ? The stop and go (I'm self employed and mobile) slams my fuel economy. Yes, I know some delivery drivers go like Mario Andretti, but............while you're at it I'd like a thin crust pepperoni...fat boys like to eat
