Kindly advise ...


I have a matrix sport 2.4ltr ,how efficient is this for Uber . Please revert . Thank you

Juwonmania:
Lol...
Please can I have your digits bro?

Crvrider:
You're right about the rider being desperate and more over they where like 7-8guys. I carried 4 of them and another driver carried the other half.

I suspected the other driver was feli, but nah, feli too lazy to drive what that guy drove last night, jeez I didn't see the guys tail light till we got to the destination.

However, the reason I am seriously considering the night thing is just how free the roads are. The risk still dey cut my liver sha.

Juwonmania:
Please house, how much is the normal insurance required for your car on uber/bolt platform?

Odd hours/late nights are the easiest time to make cool cash in this hustle but very risky.

My last trip was funny. (Destination trip to my side) A guy made the request to bring his babe.
Babe took time to come out(9mins paid waiting), I guess she quickly had her birth and dressed up cos she ran out with all her belongings.
All of a sudden the babe started seeing police RRS on road she was shaky and afraid that I should turn back, for where on destination trip, I had to start telling her no worries we will make it be4 8am but deep down in my mind I was afraid too cos if they arrest the two of us now, what will I tell people I came to do outside ?
Let me cut story here the conclusion is that the way we hustle with cars this girl hustle with their bodies.

Las las her bobo rushed out to pay for trip and gbam 4,300 d guy shout 15mins trips?

I got home before 9 and the money I made is almost what I will make on some days.

It’s faster and easier but risky

Crvrider:
But this happened last night. Seriously considering just night movement on indriver. That trip gradually moved from 5k...7k, then to 10k. Road was free.

Let me be honest here based on my experience on this hustle.

I got my Corolla back then on higher purchase just 2 years ago. Have finished paying for the car though.

I’m responsible for 100% repairs and during my 2years contract, I had accident ooh because I used to work like Jacky I mean i used to sleep on the island sometimes and I used to see heavy earnings 181k sometimes but not reflecting on the account nevertheless I don’t owe my partner.

Problem start arising during the times of repairing I’ll hustle for a month straight and spent almost 100k to fix car. Bushing leakage hub brake pad changing oil and so on just name it.

Suddenly I realized that I’m just paying bills which I’m grateful to god and paying my partner too but Mechanic is getting richer off me. To the extent that I drove my car to mechanic and the mechanic condemned the engine that was how I ended up driving for Moove to gather money buy engine (a story I shared here).

Fortunately for me, I had occasion in Ibadan and one of my friend apprentice drove my car to hit another vehicle just my bumper got scratched but I don’t know that grace of God just found me that day.

Am sorry for my story to be too long but kindly read digest and learn a lesson from it.

Getting to panel beater, (anybody that has been to Ibadan mechanic yard will understand how big it used to be. You’ll find everything you need panel, Rewire, mechanic etc.) naso mechanic approach me say my brake pad is low I say how much him talk say 2k or 1500 I said go and bring it he showed me I told him to change it gave him 5h and he appreciated.

I called mechanic aside and started asking him prices of part Corola part oh. I got shocked brake disc tokumbo 6k for both side . Engine seats 4K each labor is so cheap. Let me stop here before Lagos spare part dealer come for my head.

I started fixing my vehicle in Ibadan afterward or buy part and told them to send it for me which I’ll use 1,500 collect and pay Lagos mechanic max 3k for labor.

Below is what I notice that’s eating our earnings most

1. Mechanic is the major problem here
2. Expensive part dealers
3. Fake part dealers
4. Driver saving culture
5. Still mechanic
6. Type of vehicle you’re using.

You can add yours….

My revelations so far, I’m working on goal to get second vehicle to give person to drive for me.

Who say you can’t build house with Uber money? Tell that person say he or she is stupid. Although not that house in banana island oh but eh get reason why I Dey go Ibadan every 2 months for inspection.

Below is what I’ve saved in this July alone and I shared some screenshots TOO.

Here’s my target a day I jet out
1. I must save 5k aside drop 1k in kolo and whatever remain will still go into savings

2. If I don’t eat at home before leaving or carry food along, i would branch chicken republic buy 2 refuel mill just 1250 naira. Or any nice restaurant but I don’t do this everyday.

3. I set my target and goals on daily basis

Kindly see my post and screenshot as motivation not for lazy I’ve got stories to tell when I finally achieve my goals

Saving app 154k
Cash on hand 70k with 5k each
I don’t need to share my account balance make nobody come for my head.
And that was my monthly earnings

I rest here

BAZ001:
Especially when the incoming request are 1.9 surge. I must go shaaa.
It has happened to me twice this week that I will set destination home and as I’m about to go offline 1.9 will enter to a far distance.
I will just put on the ants nature and go out there. All the trips I did this morning is on 1.9 surge.
My credit finished yesterday morning and I ve been using in app call .
Bolt too much

eyinola:
indriver riders sabi better rating

Pearl1910:
When I tell una to use better car, una no go gree hear

Pearl1910:
Alert!!! Alert!!! Alert!!!

Avoid Island till further notice.

ALERT!!!!!

Blackbishop:
Both cars are good with few issues here and there. 2011 Hyundai Elantra 2WD Sedan with Automatic transmission of 1.8L 148 HP 4 Cyl.

Sonata 2011
Performance
Base engine size 2.4 liters
Base engine type I-4

And almost similar to the 2013. So from engine size the Elantra is better on fuel economy.
When it comes to parts they are relatively ok.

MrCarter577:
What about LASDRI, Drivers Badge and Hackney permit?

deedee44:
Okay. I used to think that change of ownership document would cover whatever might happen after selling the car. We learn and unlearn everyday

deedee44:
Please I want to know the rationale behind not selling car with plates, what will the owner use the plates for cuz I know he can't just hang it on his/her next car

deedee44:
Speaking about reputation. Yesterday my rider dropped midway because of traffic and was jokingly telling me he was not supposed to pay full fare, after over an hour in traffic. I also jokingly replied him that if it was uber/bolt the fare would already be more than his full fare. Despite all our guy to guy gists, I woke up this morning to see a popped up message from indriver that a rider complained that I did not arrive, that I should desist from such behaviour.
I went to my ratings and saw 1 star, and this guy ticked all the cons available..
-Very rude driver
-He did not arrive
-different car
-different driver
-dangerous driving
-poor car condition
Haha all because of 500 that he wanted to deduct and I said no. That was my first 1star ever on indriver.
I went to support to narrate what happened, that how would he know i drove dangerously if I didn't arrive to pick him up, and told them to go through my ratings (lowest is 4 star) and reviews, then they would know it was a false accusation.
Less than 2 minutes indriver apologized and told me they know there are riders with bad intentions, they told me to go and check my app that they have deleted his rating and bad review.
I checked and it has been removed truly, if I have had series of 1 stars and bad reviews then they would have believed the guy.
indriver is bae. I wish bolt too can adjust

Proximity matters and knowing where ur riders are, but wit rating of 4.8 on 928 trips, my odds r always favorable. I would have been long beyond 928, if not for frequent cancellation, which I need to stop tho b4, deh yank me off. Obviously not doing best app right now, but when d need is not available...

pope191:
it have it own advantage, but on a good day and not traffic day. It is just one kind funny app... Ogba to unilag, u may get 2800/300, Ogba to world oil lekki 3400. Most time I'll just go to unlike 3k and still get world oil from unilag at 3k.

From chevron to Yaba 3200/3500, while from phase one is from 2500 to 3k, so what am I looking for Ard chevron? One just have to know where not to go to at some point in time

Shey you've seen us wey dey get 100% rude riders.

That 25/30% is big enough to cause migraine.

deedee44:
Why not do something new, like only Sunday earnings challenge

Pearl1910:
I just got the most polite and respectful call from a Rider since I started this hussle, now I am scared, cos from experience there is almost always a catch or price to be paid when a rider is extremely/extraordinarily nice.
I came for TB Joshua's burial program and I am ready to go back home, I set destination and in less than 3mins a trip enters PU: Liasu road, Destination: Ogba
Was about calling when her call entered and she sounds all respectful and polite then excited when I told her I was coming. Ikotun to Ogba shouldn't be a route she will find difficult getting a car so I am wondering...
Like Bazz001 and Felicity will say, to be continued. I will keep u guys posted when the trip is over. The road to her place is not so bad, so am only 80% scared now

deedee44:
