<prompt> Human: Im a sous chef and every week I use my van to pick up food and deliveries. I have a 91 chevy G20 with 150,000 plus miles and Ive put a lot of money into it to keep it running, so I think it is fair to get compensation for using it, especially since the roads where I live are very rough and not easy on the car.Is there a standard way of figuring out how much I should get paid for wear and tear per mile? Should my employer pay for the total cost of gas while in use for the company or is there just a standard per mile my employer should pay when I use my van? Im the only employee with a car, been here for over a year, and the owner cant pick up deliveries cause he has another job. Im fairly confident he would agree to cover these costs for my van, just wondering what is a normal price range for this type of thing is.Thank you PF! EDIT: wow thanks for the fast response everyone, Ill be talking with my boss tomorrow. Thank you!!!  <response>: Per the IRS, 53.5 cents per mile:
