Oga 2k fuel can never be half tank, whatever car. Stop all these misinformation.

No be his car.

Your car tank differs from his car tank.

He his talking about his car, you are disputing his claim.

I subscribe to "Don't believe everything you hear or read" but there are some exceptions.

The guy no claim say 2k fuel would reach half tank for all generation of Toyota Corollas.

If you believe he his lying, just kukuma challenge him to drive you to a filling station he uses to counter all his claims.

Cheers

this is just a review from a website.do you want me to load reviews from other sites too? even our in-house guru has confirmed,"transmission, transmission". bringing the notice of Elantra transmission ish is not to make the owners feel bad,but to be aware of it's limitations and what to expect. also, would be purchasers would be cautious before purchasing.

Please let's drop this matter, to each their own. I have quite a few Elantras and 3 Kia Rios, I sold off 2 of my corollas and not because they are bad cars but because I didn't see them as value for money. I have never had a single transmission problem with the Elantras nor Rio, however, in saying that, I have stringent maintenance culture. Posting car reviews comes with its own flaws, people mainly post reviews to complain when they have issues and there are lots of bad reviews about corollas as well. Lastly the fact Gazzuz mentioned transmission transmission hasnt stopped him from selling his old fleet to replace them with Elantras. I have had Elantras working for me since 2015 and no major regrets, this is my personal experience and not online reviews. I hope it helps

Offline + Online = 20K am talking about. I do that on weekly basis. Take for example I took someone offline from Parkview Estate to passport office Ikoyi waited 4hrs, back to Parkview and got paid 13k at d end of the trip. Then an online trip request to Ikeja Airport came in, getting to MMA2 I made 3k. Another trip request to Ajah Badore comes in, at end of d trip. I make 4K. That’s total of 20k on 2k fuel which is usually half tank of Toyota Corolla American spec. With half tank I do a lot of trips. I only buy Fuel from HeYden filling station. Their fuel always complete. It doesn’t short.

Not true my bro... 2 hey den or any fueling station will get your corolla half tank expect u ve enough fuel in it. I use same car for years. Lies not worth it.

As for offline trip. About 1k fuel earn someone on this thread $500. Divine favour. Cos consumption per mile can not earn u 20k on 2 fuel averagely.. never

At the place I worked previously before I resigned in 2017, my official car was Toyota Corolla 2009 manual. The AC had issues consistently until we changed the whole system with OEM compressor and parts. That was #360,000 at Toyota Nigeria (March/April 2017)
Car was bought Nigerian used.

I guess, from my own experience, that you cannot manage or repair the car's AC except with brand new OEM parts. We really tried to circumvent using OEM parts after getting ELIZADE's invoice. No luck. The system must break down again after a few days

Well corolla from 07 upwards do have bad reviews compare to models from 03 to 06.. So for me personally, I only speak for my own experience, am elantra all the way , never had major issues with the car ..we can agree that corolla are stronger, but for me elantra price fits by budget very well and gets the job done. For Hyundai cars to survive in the very competitive usa market ,they must know what they are doing.. And compare to other car company how old is Hyundai company? Very young company o and the are at least top ten car company in the USA... like Pusha T will say " if you know, you know"

Request has been very slow today. So I drive whenever I get request. Been parking and waiting every 45 mins to 1hr to get request. The last trip I did was around 2pm. So by then d temperature would have come down by now. I am currently in d car chilling and watching Uruguay and Egypt match on my phone streaming it on a 4G wireless while waiting for request.

Well said bro..I appreciate your advice. What baffles me now is how just one rider rating will plummet the star to such level.. If rating affect drivers, then it should also affect riders as well.. It shouldnt be a one way thing..
Chuwaa:


There's a difference with humility and humiliation. In this business you'll be humiliated if you get bad riders. I once took a lady, and dropped her at VFS Freedom way and waited for her. I literally packed in front of the complex after haggling with the touts. Immediately she came out I drove and met her and she started her wahala, complaining that I wasted time in coming so that the money will be increasing. That day I lost it and kept arguing with her till I recollected myself and took her rants graciously. She wouldn't tell me her next destination and I had several rough drivings, rough turnings and reverses. Luckily for me, it was another person that booked the ride for her.

Be ready to take shit bro, it ain't easy. Many riders don't know the caliber of drivers, they think we are all uneducated and unfortunate people.

My taxify dropped from 5 to 4.13 just because I gave a winning vote that made them all alight to walk the rest of the way after an hour in one spot. The lady who booked apparently was annoyed that I took sides with her friends. How one review brought it down to 4.13 still beats my imagination.

To increase it, when you get nice male riders and the conversation steers towards the business, share some thoughts with them and request for 5star, no dulling, not just "please rate me" because if you do, they may give you 4 point which doesn't make much difference. Twice i was rated 4 after a fantastic discussion. Apparently the riders are not aware of the implications. People usually "forget" to rate when offered good services but will never forget to rate when they receive "bad" service.

One yeye lady just annoyed me this afternoon and I gave her the piece of my mind.. I don't tolerate bullshit.. I drive my own car and on part-time basis but some riders will just feel like like they are doing you a big favor..
