Today price was ridiculous, if u hang for traffic, that's a lot of loss

Dshocker:
If a 4 Cylinder car uses fuel of 25k in a day for e-hailing, V6 will use around 35k for e-hailing.

The reason why people complain about V6 consuming much fuel, is when the car has been tempered by the mechanic, and one of the benefit of V6 is that, even if you put on A/C from 6am to 6pm everyday, it won't affect the engine.

And for someone that wants to work or drive for long hours without break, then V6 is the answer, using 4 Cylinder for e-hailing comes with condition, because if you stress the car for long, the engine will wear off easily.
No problem since u have it covered and figured out.

I don't agree with u. People use v6 for this job. So far he is driving his own car he will make money.
I didn't say people don't use V6 for emailing. if u already have it and situation demands u use it for ehailing, u can manage it. But it's not wise to go and buy a V6 car with the premeditation and plan of using it for ehailing.
By his own admission, if an average 4plug engine consumes 25k fuel a day, then his top notch v6 will consume 35k. This is without considering how much it will consume when it's no longer topnotch.

plus there is always a huge difference in i4 and v6 inside traffic which you can't avoid for this lagos

Your body will adapt and you'll feel nothing later.
Nothing is easy in life.


Much respect, boss.

I picked her up from one dark road around Olowu in Ikeja, and then she asked me to make a detour that she wants to buy something. The girl was young...probably like 21 or 22, and dressed like a tomboy. She wasnt the regular kind of girls i pick up at that time of the night, Omo...na so we make a few turns and ended up in one weed spot with many rough looking guys outside (mostly junkies). When she went to get the stuff, I thought it was a set up cos she took too long to come out and the guys were looking at my car. Then one of the guys approached me and tried to forcefully open the door. I wound down and asked why he was struggling with my door. I later found out he was a junkie that was very hungry. I gave him Gala and he left.

When the girl came out, he grabbed her by the arm and they spoke briefly. The girl later told me the guy used to be her guy, and was doing very well till he got hooked on drugs. We gisted throughout the journey from ikeja to ikotun, and it felt I was gisting with a younger sister at some point. And then when we got to the drop off spot, which happened to be a hotel, the guy she was going to meet came out...and before she dropped, she said in a low voice, "pray for me, this is my first time doing this." The whole encounter was just really weird.
she activated ur hero complex or almost

sure there is money in it and yeah does pay off bills but let not pretend it takes lot of hard work to get the money driving from one location to another and that takes a toll on someone ..anyways I will try my best to get used to the job and prolly find good medication to cover for the effects ..

All the cars we bought are V6, because we got them cheap, like this camry, i bought it for $500 and if you calculate everything including shipping and clearing, we are looking at N4m+ or let me round it up to N5m.

The catalyst is intact.
Amazing deal. If that's the case u will still break even in d business. Of course ur profit won't be like V4 gang but u will be fine if u drive it ur self.

How much for mobile1 and how many kilometers do you use it before changing?
I bought It last in December from accredited Mobil filling station and it cost 75k or so. Can't remember exact but it was above 70k. Honestly u can use it for 10k km and more but I use mine for less. It depends sometimes on how I drive. But I never get to the maximum recommended kms not that anything will happen ooo. Just my choice.

Baba... I can't even believe we are trying to convince someone not to buy a V6 car for the purpose of transportation.
When I am here thinking of electric, hybrid or 1.2litre engine that's reliable someone is doing presentation why V6 is d best option.

Put CNG or sell it now that it's tokunbo.
If u put that car into ehailing without CNG u will not make any gains because of the fuel consumption, and u will lose the value cos u have registered it.
Pls what is ehailing
