We are in the same dilemma, I have used Hyundai and I'm using Honda now, but struggling to get Toyota. Feel's like I'm yet to arrive if I don't have Toyota. I was patiently observing the type of car argument last week and choose to keep mute if expert like Bishop of Madam Rad are not saying anything.
But my little submission on this matter: either cars are built for different purpose or we need to understand the reason why we need a particular car at a point in time. Toyota small but mighty barely reduce in price, it's that kind of shoe you will use and leave for ur children (mallam ku rin jo).
Toyota Corrolla: 2m or 1.5/6m for grade local use, if you use the car for 2 yrs and want to resale, pending on abuse... The car may go for 1.6 for toks resale or 1.3 for local used, at the end 300/400k difference
Honda Civic: toks 1.2/1.1, while used can fly from 750 to 400k and some times it's hard to tell the difference b/w both. Let's assume you get a good grade Honda for 750 and you use it for 2 years, sell at 600k, what's the difference? 150k
Prons: They both make same money, but I consider Toyota Corolla as moving money and owners worth, better chance of offline trips if you have good communication skills. For Honda? The A/C, interior and sound system is a give away. If you buy a car of 750 and after 2 years, you've made 3.5/4m plus or minus, comprehensive it to buying a car of 2m and making sa me amount.
Cons: inability to sleep well, excess security consciousness and insurance matters, unlike the Honda civic where you may care less, drink your beer in peace. For the Honda? Your communication skills must be top notch before you can nail an offline trip, not that you cant, cos I do and mostly turn them down (they are distraction to work flow for me). Chance of having disappointed clients are high, in all fairness I have taken my leave on 3 clients cos they want big cars and I can't b begging someone, some will even ask if they accept this kind of car now (2003/2004 civic), thinking the car is 1996, I'll b the one explaining this is 04 car, same year with your Corrolla. The gear is the major problem, you see the solenoid will show you shege (Don't let no one tell you different), I practically service mine solenoid switch every 2 weeks, with extra 2 up and down soleniod in the boot (each set cost 12k). while you may not even get to service Toyota gear oil for 6/12 months, let me not talk for Honda
As for Hyundai's and it reselling values, you will be the one begging the clients to add some tin, part availability is in Ladipo and you may not get the toks, but new. Sound protect? They will ask you to go work Toyota own to it.
Toyota Yaris have is unique compressor, so when it get faulty, just know it's a beginning of a new Dawn in your life. For Toyota Camry 2003/08? Let's leave that for another post

There is a corolla going for 1.1m last, owner decided to sell after about a year or there about.
There's a tok big daddy (05), arrived last week Accident free for 1.7m if you can raise more cash I can link you up with the dealer.
You can search the internet for fairly used cars (Honda Civic), those that states 1m below you can negotiate with them. You can be lucky to get one for N550k or N600k while you use the 100k to do papers renewal and fix one or two.
Honda Accord is good especially the Discussion continue model but the V4 won't come cheap trust me. Their bold joints are stronger when compared to the EOD (personal observation ooh because I've used these two cars very well).
I hope this helps. Good luck This camry and corolla sha. Thanks, it's actually helpful |

ekehopp: Re: Partner-Driver wahala na when remittance combine with maintenance.
Bottom line from what I gather, is that the system is not sustainable. And what is happening now is doing the same old thing over and over again yet expecting different results.
If problems arise when drivers are settled with car maintenance alongside remittance, then
1) Cars should only be driven by owners 2) If not, rentals should be abolished. All cars should be given out on HP, to encourage driver commitment and responsibility 3) Toyota should only be driven by owners. HP should be on only affordable cars with less maintenance cost, and with shorter tenure to recoup investment.
My 2 kobo on the matter.
P/S: abroad UberBolt drivers are basically all car owners. Or they rent car on daily basis, with only fueling responsibilities 2 Likes |

I had an experience like this same day I asked this question. I picked these ladies around Ishaga axis with bad roads. I managed to get close to the street and when I couldn't drive further, I told them it would be good they meet in less than 20mtres to where they were. They at last came out. The next was them challenging me why I couldn't drive in even when I already told them cos of bad road. On getting inside, they started shouting at me, threatening of giving me 0 star. Even one of them was already telling the one that initiated the trip to give me the 0 star immediately (as if that s the way it works). Sensing danger, I told them I wasnt interested in the trip, that they can get down since I'd not started the trip. Na so they cancelled trip and still refused to get down from my car. We dragged it for about 5 mins. A woman passing by even tried to intervene. When I noticed they wouldn't come down, I changed my direction, telling them I would drive them to a nearby police station. They began dragging steering with me. Another was tampering with my gear, shouting kidnapper, that I wanted to kidnap them. I ended up stopping the car. Blocked road untill more people came to intervene. The guys managed to get them out of the car and told me to leave immediately. The experience was damn nasty. davit:
Meanwhile, guys how do you manage a situation rider refuses to get down from your car for whatever reason known to her.
Take for instance, you get a trip request. Rider arrives and begins to insult you even before the trip starts. You now tell her to get down since she will end up giving you o star or even do worse, only for her to refuse.
Abeg, I need input on this.

I pray never to meet hoodlum riders like yours. The closest One to it, I had to beg the lady they were two and they claimed Uber drives to their gate how come I can’t drive down. I said my car is low they said no, it’s the same type of cars. I was ready to cancel after 5mins but they showed up and entered and started talking shit. I just activated my Mumu button: saying sorry and ignoring insult, I don’t have strength to face traffic and fight rider. Na too just look straight and chup 1 star in peace than to cause scene and allow riders spoil my day. 4 Likes |

Indriver is one stupid app, did I just say stupid? Yes! Like very stupid app, but you just have to learn how to manage it. You r lucky the rider picked you, after giving him or her 2500, drivers don't give price on Indriver again, unless you want to sleep on one spot, drivers like Tojahh, Felicity001 and Davit will not let you complete one trip. About the trip you are looking at now, just end it, next time if you want to pick a trip on Indriver be sure it's aim to go and not fastest finger pushed me. Even if you made a mistake of not calculating well, just cancel the trip, you have grace of cancelling 2wice/day and in the case of you arriving with the aim of cancelling you know when its 6pm and Nigeria is about to go to sleep, that anthem sound you hear and you have to pulse wherever you are? That's same way Indriver cancellation works after sliding arrived, just stay at that point where u slide on the arrived for 5 mins, then cancel, even if it is in the middle of the road, cos the moment you drift away from that point or few metres, you will have to complete the trip. The most interesting part of this, the rider can't cancel from his/her end and your subsequent riders will see his/her comment about you so boss go ahead and complete the trip, welcome back to the hustle. But nah back door you use enter sha, you didn't even loud your entrance 9 Likes |
