Thanks.

Is it really a good idea to display ones earnings in public like this? There's a bit of security risk and danger associated to this, if you ask me. It leaves other drivers prone to attack by thieves, police and other security agents. A novice in this game may clap for this without knowing what the real deal is. Na Naija we still dey oo! Especilly for those that work at night.
If it is a state where kidnapping is business, with all these flashy dashboard displays, Uber drivers will be kidnapped every blessed day grin

What was your experience like?
To add to the piece of advice elders on this hustle have given out several times, do not use just any car for this hustle ,be it Tokunbo or brand new, stick with the recommended brands :Toyota Corolla, Honda civic ,Honda city and Hyundai) .
I thought i was wise enough using a Ford Mondeo Tokunbo for e hailing despite all the warnings and pleads from people who've been on the hustle for over a year but i got my hand burnt.
The little money i earned on this hustle for just three weeks was spent on fixing the car ,even had to borrow from friends : AC Evaporator, Compressor, fan blower, Brake pads and Battery, now, it's the shock absorber, oxygen sensor and spare tyre despite minimal hours on the road. But i am taking the car back home before i go bankrupt.
This is the end of my e hailing journey.
I wish you guys all the very best and pray, life gets better for everyone.

Plz guys, I am sorry for interrupting the flow of discussion on the trade.

Let me start by saying good morning. I am based in Ph and want to relocate to either of Lagos or Abuja to start life afresh as things ain't going as they used to down here in PH.

A friend advised I sell off my 2002 Toyota Highlander and but a smaller car with less maintenance and fuel economy, so I can use it to go into uber in either of Lagos or Abuja.

I know I might not be able to get up to 1.5m on my Highlander, say I can be able to get like 1.2m on it and I don't have plans of where I can get more to add to it to be able to buy a car and have enough left to really hit the road in any of the cities.

Hence, I decided to come in here and seek for some advice from my brothers and possibly sisters who are already in the business. Please your kind advice and guidance is welcome.

Thanks

Thank you for buttressing my point. You can make any amount regardless of where you live tho. You just need to know when to move.

Wish you didn’t have to throw in the towel this early. Cars will give issues trust me. You don’t have to fix all, just the essential parts.

The parts you’ve fixed won’t go bad for a while. You have to harken your mind on this job. It’s not for the faint hearted.

The market is not thriving as in cities like Lagos or Abuja. Coupled with the insecurity issues, bad road network, bad road condition(drive a tokunbo car here for 3 months, na noise you go dey hear everywhere) and the mentality of people down here (Keke, Taxi and bus)

Jesus Christ just for 1 car,what u have to understand is not about buying Toyota or any other car all cars are good for the buniess but the question u have to ask urself is how good is the car what have been the history of the car how many years have it be damage,for what people say Toyota cars are the best and the parts are cheap,my brother if Toyota Corolla give u problem u go hate ur self when them start to they tell u the price and for Honda the 2 front leg can pull any day without even giving u a sign.like I do tell my friends it all dpend of the history of the car some people are wicked when them see engine done they dead they we sell it off make another person carry the problem no body is truthful when it comes to cAr,are seller can say nothing to fix just buy and drive my brother after 1 week or even 5 days problem done start when u call the buyer they tell am oga this car this and this done spoil the seller go say eh this car never do like this before oo u nor driver when it take spoil the seller no oo but he just act like he does not..all I could say is don’t give up as u fit it buy good one and make sure is the right mechanic that knows the car than ask a rewire to check every thing.l,I no it we cost u but close eye do am after 3 months u we gain ur money back by God grace and u we still come here and comment ur car is the best I was once in same shoes but for 1 months now my car never get any issues have gain the money I use to fit it back,just have faith bro

Meanwhile as you serve the Nation, develop yourself and look beyond ehailing, get the needed skills, acquire certificates on courses that will enhance your chances and make way for you. If you don have the finance.... Learn a trade while you serve. Me self might not be here by the time you'll finish your device to mentor you, but stay with the advice I gave.

I have not seen the money you spent on your car.
What you did was routine maintenance. IMHO.

Your AC issue was not approached professionally. Someone asked you to visit Musbos, but you chose otherwise.
Battery can fail in any car, same as struts, brake pads e.t.c.

You are talking about civic; ask Tojah how he dealt with a transmission issue.
Or is it corolla that is not flood-friendly "wheel hubs"

Unless
