Uncle Tojahh. It's common sense. Every engine no matter how careful you maintain it has a lifespan. The more you drive, the faster you reach the lifespan. This is especially so for high mileage cars imported into the country.

Apart from that, vehicles used on ehailing have a tendency of being abused. That's the reason the great and late gazzuzz will not go near a vehicle that has been previously used on ehaling when sourcing for cars for his clients.

This is why I always say you don't need to work hard but smart to be successful in life.. mental enslavement has eaten deep into you.

You forget to tell am say, at the end of the day after extreme frequent use, the Toto go slack, wide and not enjoyable anymore.. guy go sleep you ain't impressive

Make una no vex say I won advice oooo… good or bad, the person don make up in mind.

1. I personally feel newbies should not focus on too much profit or target. Make fun off driving. Take some time or week to know what work for him and what don’t.

2. To me it is important to understand the days that things boom. I necessarily don’t believe drivers should have specific daily targets, but weekly. Some days are superb and some can be wishful. In all, there’s always a carry over. Using Indrive as yardstick… if 250k weekly is the target? Then, Friday, Saturday and Sunday and be the peak days. Pick like 2 days in the week as make up and car maintenance.

XGhost:
But you see the "tendency to be abused" part... that's on the driver

Ibadan is a dead zone for e hailing. Tin sized car called Micra has taken over every nook and cranny with bad roads .meanehile U can't even find any active group.

This is were you will be deplorably and woefully disappointed if you have that mind set of achieving such amount of money daily with 7-8 hours on the road driving ... Them say who nor go nor go know.. well now only you one go fill the agony when the actual time comes. People you are yeiding to their advise have been driving for uberbolt way back since this thread was created. You can't compare the economy of Nigeria then to 2024.. majority of them don't drive anymore and some only drive weekends on rush hours not every day..

I will be here, time will tell.. now only the sweet side dem go only let you know

Johnnybegood12:
another truth i didn't say earlier was that e-hailing don scatter my car .

Johnnybegood12:
at the bolded, you are correct because I myself dont drive no more, (actively).
now that is because e-hailing was a means to an end, i understand the point you have been making but you should also know that lagos and Benin are not the same thing.
instead of discouraging the newbie, u can as well advise him not to solely depend on e-hailing, because the daily money can be enticing and make him loose focus.
i was in this same shoe 2021 but today I didn't regret venturing into the hustle, it was a major player in helping me level up today.
when i was driving actively, i joined some ajo group, i was doing over140k monthly.
another truth i didn't say earlier was that e-hailing don scatter my car .

Eiyah sorry. By the way, what model of car is this you're talking about?

It's alright.. some questions for you.. how much was fuel back then in 2021

Can you compare Nigeria economy of 2021 to 2024??

What about 20km fares on bolt in 2021 compare to 2024. Was there any increasment.??

I don't think any one currently on this thread can make that amount of 140k net monthly in Benin even in Lagos I still doubt .

Someone here argued with me this afternoon that frequent driving of bolt can't deteriorate your car.

What oo.. did u say 140k net monthly or weekly. U mean a FULL TIME e hailing driver in lagos. Mehn sorry ooo benin ehailing has done a number on u.

Lolz. I said something similar to this before. Even in Benin city 80 Percents of cars use for bolt currently are tin sized Yaris . Now dem full road pass with bolt stickers on it. And we have a lot of bad roads here. Now this kind cars bolt say make who get comfort Camry 2009/2010 with standard AC dey struggle with for road every day. Omon and now aboki dey use this Yaris pass for benin to drive bolt

Jacksonfire:

Almost 1hrs ride on bolt in Benin is not up to 7000 naira

Nelochukwu:

2RightHands1Coc:
Indrive sucks

Jacksonfire:
Coward!!! I know it's difficult for you to comprehend quickly, BECUs your brain has already been tempered with during child birth. Your grand mum mistakenly knocked you on your head during severe argument with your mum.. the floor is Open you can answer my questions. Don't pretend you didn't spotted it. Oh my bad, I forgot you don't even own a bicycle

dont get me wrong when i say "e-hailing don scatter my car" i was referring to the physical condition of my car. no regrets at all, because the car has worked, 3 years of e-hailing i never did anybody work, changed engine once and not because of e-hailing. it was a necessity because the engine block was made of aluminum and it chopped, so no way to fix than to change engine.

Conner44:
Okay, I remember you. You're the one that was with lag ride for a while before you left them and got your own carmy to be using which later got totaled by one idiot one unfortunate night abi?

So you later got a skoda? But if I remember correctly these incidents didn't happen up to a year ago right? Abi has it reached a year already?

Nelochukwu:
Boss I hear ur argument and I feel for u guys my only issue is assuming lagos is like benin and wen we share our experiences u assume we r agents. Honestly I agree that prices upcountry are unfair y d app companies do that I have no idea being cost of pms is even more expensive.

It's well bro. Hopefully things will change
