I have the crazy idea of starting a mobile advertising company. I will have a vehicle such as a HUMMER H2 fully wrapped in vinyl graphics for a particular company that I`m advertising for. The vehicle will drive all around town for the extent of the campaign. Any suggestions to better improve my business idea? Would companies actually be interested in this advertising medium? What if I used flashy sports cars like a Ferrari or Lamborghini?

I like the flashy sports car idea ... that seems like something new and fresh.

I see ads on Hummers frequently around here, as well as those flatbed truck/mobile billboard deals.

I remember seeing something like this done in Switzerland. Ten years ago, I saw average citizens signing up to have their cars wrapped in advertising and then continue on with their ordinary schedules. Many of the cars were the same model i.e. VW bugs.
One advantage they had over there was that people live in small towns and park on the street at night (while everyone drives by), also I think regular billboards were prohibited, so that cut down on the competition.

I think the idea is great, but would it pay off to have cars with this advertising. Are you buying these cars? How long would it take before your great fortune would turn a profit?

That is a great idea. There is a lady that drives around my small town advertising some type of juice product. It is unforgettable and you can spot her a mile away. Try to do company sponsoring too. They pay for a small spot on your vehicle.
