I do field collections and use my car to go from customer to customer to customer. I am not reimbursed for my vehicle expenses. Last year we were converted to employee status and I used to file my Schedule C. Can I deduct all that mileage I described above?

Yes, you can claim the unreimbursed mileage from customer-to-customer. However, you cannot claim it for commuting to your normal work location.
For the time you worked as an "employee"
receiving a W-2, and they are not reimbursed to you, then you can deduct them
as an Unreimbursed Employee Business Form 2106. It goes on
Schedule A Itemized Deductions in the Misc section subject to a 2% of Adjusted
Gross Income threshold. If you don't itemize, then deducting them won't
benefit you. You can try it both ways and see which works out better for
you.
