I remember the engine capacity of my highlander was in the range of 3.5 litres.
I'm sure I wasn't making as much as other drivers on the platform, bases on fuel calculations. But I was making enough to make me happy.
Every time I pulled up, riders somehow always just thought they were going to be paying extra money.
My point is, if it is your car, and maybe it's the only option.
You will make money if you plan on driving it yourself.
But it is a no no if you plan on renting it out.

Okay thanks.

Like a bird.
Some 02 models make their way into Uber.
For instance i see 2002 camrys on the platform.
Ultimately, its Uber's opinion that counts.
Its them you should ask.

Talking about fuel efficiency from ur experience

taxiappguy:
To say the least.
But a Rav4 or highlander is not so bad if it's yours and you drive it.
I drove a highlander on Uber, at the end of the day, I still ended up with some good money

What of Honda CRV 02, Can it fly?

TheCar:
I assumed you didn't read the full story.

The summary of the post was if you as a driver is demanding for a high performance car, you should not placed a ceiling on what you can deliver as weekly rental.

So if you as a driver is demanding for a 15 million car, you have to be able to deliver results consumerate with the investment.

If your weekly remittance is capped at 40k, don't ask a car owner to give you a 15 million car.

Also as an investor, why would I buy you a 15 million car when you can only deliver 40k weekly.

So boss, I don't support car owners putting dead cars on the platform but I also have zero tolerance for drivers demanding high performance cars without a high performance weekly rental.

Let the trouble start.

Sure you're right but I've not heard any driver demand for prado, highlander, crosstour and co. The highest I've heard so far is tokunbo corolla which is less than 2.5m. Is the fasting affecting my big ears too?

Yesbody:
60 uber cars would be required for pre campaign election in October in lagos and may be extended to ogun and oyo state 20k per day has been budgeted, all uber drivers would be feeded with free hotel

This is strictly for uber drivers, verification would be done, pls show interest

You wrote in blue ink, why am I seeing so many red flags? Abi this fasting don dey do me strong thing

TheCar:
I understand your point.

My reply was correcting an impression that drivers can't or should flee from car owners asking for above 35k.


Great Power comes with great responsibilities.

A Messi or Ronaldo is getting paid more than Ahmed Musa because of results that they delivered. A Pep Guardiola is getting paid more than a Eddie Howe.

If you demand more power, you should be able to deliver the necessary results.

Cheers

You know why you don't see any Nigerian club bidding for them? Because they don't suit the market. If you put as u said, a 15 million naira car in Nigeria e-hailing market then you're wrong. Your driver proposing max of 40k weekly for such vehicle is only being real and not inhumane

One thing I can say about Oga Dru23 is that he is very fair. Wehdone sir

What cream is he using? I want to be fair too

taxiappguy:
I fully agree with what you have said. Additionally, a one day test drive will not be a bad idea for someone who is willing to pre-pay or front a security deposit.

A new driver that doesn't know Jack about cars, what does he know he's testing apart from just moving the car around. Owners should just try and be sincere about the condition of their cars

joeokoriem:
oga u want to take d driver to court, after collecting rentals of 35k and 30k are u not supposed to fix d car? Is it not d responsibility of d owner to fix d car. What's on d agreement letter? I own a corolla on ubar. I fix d car for my driver except minor fault. Those things u mentioned are major. U don't expect d poor driver to pay rentals and still fix all those fault. I blame him for running, he should have told u d fault for u to fix. Pity d poor man, u can see he has too many family problems.

I know if you go back and read the post properly you yourself will laugh at your own comment

taxiappguy:
You are not renting the car out so he can eat, you are renting the car out so you can make money. In actual fact, he is renting the car from you so you can eat. Unless of course you don't take a remittance.
There are people that rent Uber vehicles and pay out of pocket just to have a car to drive around in.

When a driver pays #Assurance, he is your renter/hirer. At this time, he is boss.
It is when you fail to collect #Assurance, you can start to call the person your driver, It is now you are boss. Before that, he is your renter.


Partners often misinterpret their roles and therein lies the problem. A vehicle owner's job is to provide an Uber enabled vehicle. What the driver plans to do with it is his business. So long as it is covered in the Rental/HP agreement (which I have for sale for a small token).

In fact the driver can rent the car and be using it to pick only ladies if he wants to, as long as he makes the car payment every week or as stipulated in the Rental/HP Agreement which you both earlier signed.

That is what every car rental agent in the world would do. As long as what he is using the vehicle for is legit and covered by the terms, and he is using the vehicle in a responsible manner. Whether Uber pays on Sunday, or Togo got to the moon before America, that is renter's business to ..........

I can't stop reading this line over and over again, and I can't stop saying God bless you each time I read it. God bless you

Note: this will not affect drivers only but driver-partner. If you like encourage your driver to keep getting involved in this fraud for them to meet up to your weekly rentals. You will be prosecuted along side. #anti-fraud driver/partner

Prosecution ni

nitigriti:
Seems car owners here don't understand what I've been driving at as per experience, so I will break it down for us all

Like Dru23 will say through his many memes, you can learn from your own experience or other people's experience. When a new car owner or new driver comes on this forum, we tell him or her "go read up from page 1 to the last page, you will get everything you need to know about this e-hailing business". What is that? Are those not other people's experiences this newbie owner or driver is leveraging on?
OK, when you sign up a new driver and you brief him - do this like this, do that like that; don't go out by this time, be in this area during working hours, don't work beyond 10pm ... pray, tell me, is that not experience you are passing across to this newbie driver? Abi him go come invent wheel once again? Shey una dey give una cars out without briefing the driver how the ehailing business dey go?

No need to even talk again. Give your cars to newbies nau

Bros as long as you can drive, download your app, go online and wait for request. If no request for a while change location. There's a reason they don't have a course for e-hailing in schools, because u don't need experience to make money, u only need experience to boost your earnings. Thank you

I never made less than 10k per day unless I didn't work full day. My Saturday, Sunday n Monday is nothing less than 60k no matter how the market is.

You're the boss, nice stats

Pro tips for drivers - buy fuel ONLY at Oando or Hayden! You will thank me buy Origin for me later

Total and Forte oil have been making my tank happy for years. Irrespective of the name, beware of franchised filling stations

dru23:
I see .. So you don't think he is killing the owners car? You just prove my point.. No matter how low the rental you give them, just for the sake for them not to murder the car to the ground. Drivers will always over work the car to make more than the owner.. My point is that owners should get real value for their rental.. A partner that gives out his 07 corolla tokunbo for 30k weekly is at a lost. Poor bad decision making in my point. But it is not really non of my business.. But since we are on an open forum, am entitled to my opinion.. This is why most drivers misbehave, coz of the owner like the guy with 07 corolla.. That is why am always cautious at times when owners come on the forum to complain about drivers.

There's no way a driver will overwork a car without overworking himself first, so owners be your brother's keeper for once and be concerned about your driver's health first, healthy driver increases chances of healthy car

julietromeo:
Still working.

Good one, but please on a bad day when you make less than 10k also try and post for the world to see, so you won't mislead some partners to believe thats how much drivers make when they work hard.

If you can go drop someone from festac to international airport on Tuesday, henceforth head to Ibadan to drop rest of family, kindly indicate, offline trip.
Big cars please

Toyota corolla 06, with big tyres.

GAZZUZZ:
Tip for the day, before you give out your vehicle to any so called fleet manager let him or her show you at least 2 recent original vehicle particulars in his/her name that are being managed.

You cannot learn work on other people's vehicles.

That you were a good driver does not make you a good manager.

You must have 2 houses to qualify to be a caretaker?

Is this not scam?

This is the third time am experiencing this!

Got a request from a bus stop, a group of stranded people at the bus stop and one he goat thinks he is wise and decided to use UBER to shine. I got there and noticed what they were up to, I just zoomed off. You can’t turn my car to cabu cabu

Unprofessional
