Barbiturate:

Let me guess the line......"he's not using the right tool"

I have spent over 200k in a month fixing my car. If it's not engine, it's cranshaft or cranshaft sensor. Just changed tyres this afternoon. Got a trip on bolt to ajah for 16k. Another from Ajah to Anthony village 17500. I don dey happy say the day is going well until tyre kpafuka. 50k don go for tyre and alignment.

Don't get it twisted....people are making millions in this same hustle 😊

Omoapena:
well, not all but it's a rare case.

if you're lucky to meet the ambitious one, they tend to manage the car very well and also remit consistently but it's really a rare case.

if you must do rentals, there are things you also need to put in place to ensure the durability of the car.


1. be in charge of oil change. You see drivers, they really do not care about this, they don't mind driving that car till last drop of oil if you put them in care of oil change. you can always reset the car trip AorB and ask him to bring it for oil change at a certain km coverage.

2. Ensure you inspect and drive the car once in 2 weeks, this is to make sure the driver isn't rough handling the car.

3. Tracker is very important, infact, secret surveillance camera is important too, this is to know the kind of person you're entrusting your property to..

also, I will advise you settle for daily delivery, this will make it easy for the driver to stay consistent as many do not know how to save ahead of delivery day.


have a standard terms and agreement, the car will always be his responsibility no matter what happens on the road, he has to ensure the safety of the car and in case where police, VIO, lastma, or road safety Impounds the car for any offense, he has to ensure the release of the car.

make sure you collect a refundable deposit too.

this doesn't guarantee a smooth relationship tho but at least, it will give you some sense of relaxation and peace if you put them in place.

Djdamian:
But why should this be the case?

Why should an owner cry for entrusting a vehicle to someone to make a living for himself and in return pay a certain commission to the owner? Are you implying that all drivers are wired mentally to cause pain to owners?

Omoapena:
how did you get your own 72k?

HelenaWills:
Is 50k for maintenance even realistic?
Or doesn't the maintenance include repairs and servicing?

Omoapena:
any reliable and experienced pilot in need of car for rentals?

T&C

daily remittance of 8k
refundable security deposit of 100k
at least 500 successful rides on any of the trio apps

First of all, let me say I just got on InDrive few days ago. Before that, I was just on Bolt Regular, and I usually wait hours before getting trips. Also, my car is manual. It's not easy driving long hours in lagos traffic with a manual car.

Let me answer your questions...

1. I work 8 hours a day.

2. I buy like 13k fuel each day. My fuel gauge is always around full tank. I started eith a full tank, so I just basically top up everyday.

3. 3- 4 trips a day.

Biodun1929:
Good day to you all.

I know people don't like to disclose how much they earn, but maybe some people that don't mind to give me an idea of how much they make from this hustle. I drive a Nigeria used KIA Cerato (2006 model) I bought 3 years ago. It's a 2.0 engine car. i'm on Bolt Regular and I got on In drive 4 days ago. Based on the 3 weeks I have done this so far, I'd say I make an average of 20k a week (after removing fuel money)...working 5 days a week. That's pretty low, and I want to know how other people are doing.

Is it because i'm new to the business, or because my car chops fuel. I just want to know.

Thanks in advance.

Chiefdeni:
I will advice you not to but do you.
I have a toyota camry 2003 for sale with tokunbo engine, all legs changed to tokunbo, Ac unit all changed and chilling. Best offer you can get for a peaceful driving adventure.
AGAIN...I will advice not to buy that honda...look for corolla or camry or any other sound toyota car and maybe honda civic....but do you

Omoapena:
ikr, the country situation is worse but boss, paying 90k for iPhone 6s in 2025, no be juju be that?

Omoapena:
I have used redmi too and I'm telling you to run cox I know the phone can just go off and not turn ON again.

Omoapena:
if you see the way I dey look my speedometer for 3mb😁

I can't afford to pay any stupid fine again o

Omoapena:
run from that phone o
I told Kaymaxi2222 too to run from it, I don't know why he's recommending it, phone that easily have deadboot, I will choose tecno over it self.


just get any A series Samsung phone, it's still affordable and the GPS is very accurate.

Biodun1929:
Good day people. I do Bolt driving in lagos, and I hardly get rides. Maybe 3 a day. I live around egbeda-idimu area. Who can advise me on spots to drive to that would increase the likelihood of getting more requests. It gets tiring just sitting in the car for hours.

SHOOPSYN:
Moreso, 80km/hr on 3MB is not fair for such highway.

olaadesie:
@ felicity001…. Leave him make e go buy the car he want abeg!. my advise to that person that needs a car for his wife is to look elsewhere apart from Felix/ felicity001 side please!!!!

Gentlelife50:
Camry 2.2

davit:
Interesting. This is why prices will keep going south. Some drivers are ready to take bullshit prices.
Na wa o

mamman40:
Still on the AC matter....abeg make Una help me out...
During December I rode with my AC on level three.... I just want the client to enjoy what they are paying for..
Normally, na level two I dey always put m except I'm alone in the vehicle or driving at night or early morning - then level one/low works perfectly.

My fan motor/coil got burnt n I replaced it.
However, I noticed something strange this wk.
If I'm not accelerating or if m packed with my engine on, the AC no dey blow again o! na just fan dey role.

Pls, what is happening or has happened to my AC?

Barbiturate:
Correct 👍

It's good to have an opinion on issues/topics raised but to chest-beat on an opinion or talk as if it supercedes all other opinion is the height of stupidity and 'too know '

ksmart027:
Abort mission, unless you want make your friend turn to your enemy. Speaking from experience.

davit:
I suspect Indriver!

Barbiturate:
Na wah o! Guys just wan drop 9-5 now wey prices dey so low! God go help everybody Sha!

GeneralZodd:
, I think they used price reduction to stimulate demand, ride request dey scarce few weeks ago.

Omoapena:
When did they increase price?


I just confirmed, it's true, the base fare is now 2800 still makes sense, make I go dust my car...
