Freight vehicle on journey (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cargo

'freight' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'vehicle on journey' is the wordplay.
'vehicle' becomes 'car' (car is a kind of vehicle).
'on journey' becomes 'go' (I've seen this in other clues).
'car'+'go'='CARGO'

(Other definitions for cargo that I've seen before include "Ship's freight" , "Payload" , "Ship's load" , "Load carried" , "Goods carried by a large vehicle" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
