Yeah, sometimes is like that and reason being that, maybe the rider has been ordering for sometime and he/she isn't getting a driver ontime, so they will increase price on indrive more than bolt price to be able to attract driver ontime...
I get you chief
Where I'm driving towards is if they do price Leveraging according to the PMS rate, riders will still pay and drivers will be make substantial profit.
Even they themselves will make more from their commission.

They are there claiming to fight riders injustice.

You're still trying your foolish troll tactics, there's nothing to proof to your dumbskull, I don't even want your foolish self to believe anything but just know you have no knowledge at all.


You keep arguing what isn't your line of profession, the YouTube screenshot is from a white engineers page, you can go there and learn where hole are being drilled into the combustion engine and come back here to shamelessly admit you were wrong.
Okay lol 😆 kai! Omoapena you be real case.

You're a REAL BRODA BENAD, the name fit you die. I now see where your confusion is coming from.

Don't worry, after you've converted we will know where exactly they drilled through to get to your own engine's so called intake manifold wink

Just give us updates cool

Yeah, they can slightly increase the fare, but not as high as that 15k offer from ogba to igbobi, such high amount can't be the normal price coz people will not be able to consistently sustain that...

You're the real fool here, I'm trying to let people know how the conversion will affect the car resale value, I don't intend to do that and experts that are into the conversion drill another hole on the manifold into the combustion engine for the gas inflow so users can switch from fuel to gas easily.


You can now see you're the broda bernad and also a lost serial troll.

You don't have to, here is a video to that engineer you're talking about, this is the exact video where he showed the step by step and he mentioned where he will be drilling the hole into the combustion engine.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B1h1xUlnbi0?si=Mvw8d70ciRkCXLQN

You this guy, your foolishness and stupidity to troll on this thread is becoming toxic.

Isn't a CNG converted car meant to increase resale value though?
Re: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by Pearl1910: 7:18am On Oct 26, 2024
Conner44:
No matter how UP the price of CNG goes it can never get to HALF the price of petrol 'pound for pound' so it's still a win - win 🏆 🙌
Never say Never.
LPG that they were and are still flaring/throwing away na him done be N1,700/kg. It gradually went up from N170.

I don go lekki 2 times, come back!
Bro, I gas hustle. Bill full ground die! Even as I dey complain, I still dey hustle.....on bolt and yeye indrive! I just dey look that post wey that guy say him stop to learn tech and I saw your response.....I just nod head say this guy know what's up! Make I stop work, learn skill, then who go feed my family, pay rent and other things?

Different strokes for different folks.......but I know say God go do am someday and I go stop, cos my mind no dey this hustle again.
Sincerely u have to make a plan.
If Ehailing is not really your thing then don't sacrifice all your time doing it. U will not be happy with your decisions later on in life.

Assume u didn't have a car and u lost ur job, your family will not starve to death, u will still survive. So think of how to work 2-3days a week and make enough money for home expenses then dedicate 2-3days to learning something that's in voque or something u have passion for or search for a new job.
This way u can exit ehailing faster, no dey just talk am for mouth say God go do am.

You came at a good time, although a few riders I still pick are reasonable and cool to chat with but the change in price of fuel has messed a lot of things up.
Riders still want to pay the same amount they used to at 585naira and drivers try their best to explain but we are where we are
It's quiet worrying, this fuel ish.
Last time I was at ibadan, fuel was 1150. Same range with some places within lagos.

You can get riders contact and slimly discuss and negotiate with them as regards taking them to their destination when your services are needed, some would give in.

It's today I notic3d that Indrive management are a very very very wicked set of people.

The increase in fare this evening and riders were willing to pay. Imagine seeing ikorodu from unilag that used to be btw 7000 to 8500. Tonight it was 20000, 22000 and riders were will to pay.

I just finished a ride of less than 5km for 6400. Shomolu to ikeja 11,000 and these people will accept even if you increase to 13000.

Indrive management are just wicked set of people, if they adjust their fare riders will still pay.
My conclusion.
It's an emergency bro. They are stuck outside because of the rain and need to get home.
If they were home and want to go out and u slam them that kind of price, majority will change their mind or find alternatives.
Also whenever it's surging on Bolt and Uber, Indrive is the go to app because riders want to be certain this is what they will pay because they are scared if they use Uber/Bolt even the high price will go higher after the trip because of traffic.

He will keep arguing

Just agree that valve cover is the answer , unless you'd continue another 3 pages of pouring water inside a basket

So, as development don hit Orchid road now, make dem complete am asap. That road is long overdue. cool
I sympathize with victims of the expansion, but the road deserves peace.
Orchid is one of the best positioning spots in lekki. Always hot for trips.

MODIFIED:
Abeg, shey na me dey stubborn ni? Anytime I take a trip to orchid road and confirm the location to the rider, I pronounce it as "or-kid", but riders always correct me by pronouncing it as " or-sheed".
But wetin me I know be say the oyinbo wey get the word no get anything like "or-sheed", na "or-kid" be the correct pronunciation.
Abi there's something I need to know?

Much respect, bosses.
Your own pronunciation is the correct one.

My brother cherish that car oh. It's now becoming a reality that having a vehicle with all these 1.6 - 1.8 liter engines is a necessity for us.

You won't get the NEW upstream sensor from any narket in nigeria and the TOKUMBO ones might work today and stop tomorrow even if you're lucky enough to get a good unit.

For something as important as the exhaust sensors I'd personally order a Chinese replacement from aliexpress. All the sensors and parts I've been getting from them have always worked 💪

Enjoy that vehicle and cherish it. 😍
AliExpress is my next go-to market.
Thanks

Carry your savings, go and buy dispatch bike. I can help you with dispatch groups to get works daily, you can hire a rider and use that as side hustle. Leave all these people. If you have more than 2 bikes, headache. One is OK, but 2 is perfect. You can easily save 100 - 150k per week on one bike. Maintenance is also low. I have a friend that's into the biz, he had 4 bikes and sold 2. The remaining 2 are serving him well.

Best of luck
I am saying from experience. I started hustling as a dispatch rider before I saved to get a manual car for bolt I didn't last six months doing bolt before I dumped the hustle. I can tell you dispatch riding, if you know your onion well is profitable. If y'all like, keep listening to that bolt agent and don't get useful with your lives until age catches up with you. Shalom

Please for the avoidance of Ignorance and to enlighten others here, I will make a few points available to those educated and flexible enough to learn 😉

1. What drives a modern Internal Combustion Engine? Air, Spark & Fuel

2. How is Air introduced into the engine? Via the INTAKE MANIFOLD

3. How is the spent Air discharged from the engine? Via the EXHAUST MANIFOLD

4. How is Spark generated? Via the Spark Plugs which sit directly over the piston heads in the cylinder chamber.

5. What part of the engine is sitting directly over the piston cylinder head chamber? The VALVE COVER

6. How is Fuel introduced into the engine? Via the holes drilled into the VALVE COVER into the CYLINDER HEAD to accommodate the INJECTORS

7. Where is the CNG gas therefore introduced into the engine to assist Spark and Air?

Not even upto 85%

From my own view, I will say 70%, map that can make you go round sometimes just to locate a street, for instance, if you're going to any street around Pedro, map will never take you through that charlie boy, it will take you through gbagada phase 1 or Iyana oworo and if you rely solely on map in Lagos, you and rider go fight tire...

But you still need the help of map though, just try to understand the lines on the map and you will be able to tell when the map is taking you through longer route...
