Vehicle use

I work for a utility company. I used to drive a company provided vehicle, but it is no longer available to me. I am considering buying a vehicle for company use, I’d say it would be 90% used for work. I can claim mileage and be reimbursed thru the company. Are there any other advantages/options to lessen my out of pocket cost?

2nd income taxes

Hello, I started working a second job with Uber Eats and Door Dash in May of this year. I know that I have to pay taxes on my earnings since these companies do not do it for you. I am a little confused as to how to exactly do it. Does my primary job income affect it? Do I get any deductions for mileage or gas? I think I may need some assistance.
