No, if you didn't track your mileage you will not be able to claim the deduction. The IRS requires you to keep adequate records or provide sufficient evidence to claim the mileage.

So I shouldn't include my vehicle at all?

No, since you cannot claim any mileage you don't need to include your vehicle. 

 

I would recommend starting records for 2023 if you continue working as a food delivery driver.
