I still work with a certain car brand you know and have built up a nice working relationship them. I invoice my full day rate and just shoot one day. No more doing stories and generating content. Thats left to the ambassadors. I found it very worthwhile to establish the relationship initially. This works for me but certainly wouldn't for a full time photographer. A car doesn't put food on the table. Ditto for all other companies.
Glad to hear you're getting paid for your efforts dude, I don't mind the barter system if something of value is exchanged that could at a later stage be sold on etc, but as you say too creating stories and content for the loan of a car can't buy food.

Maybe if they service the van

Very informative man. Early in my career it's great to hear this.
Just trying to help those starting out to recognise red flags and not to fall for stuff like this.
