Shindosky2:
if you buy the Suzuki, agbero will disturb you though but you will continuously make money every minute of the day and will make at least 7-12k per day, but Uber you need a client to call you before you can make your money, I go for Suzuki. I'm even looking for money to buy one for myself at the moment

If he register with uber,taxify,bolt,etc,he will be getting regular clients through the apps.

cucumbae:
Big lie.

You dey mind him, 20k daily from mini bus when u know dey carry corpse, to save that amount weekly self you go sabi huzzle wella, as if you know go chop or buy fuel

Olunmercy56:
I love that Toyota is okay and durable, I have many friends using it. I pray that God will send helpers to buy it for me.

You can buy it yourself thou

mabeni:
including fuelling and everything. Automatically, I didn't even make my money for the fuel not to talk of profit. I just vex come house. Imagine 7trips for 3500naira. You can also ask other uber drivers to share their experiences.

This is serious!

Wiifesnatcher:


Y[b][/b]our contributions will be highly appreciated. God bless y'all as you educate me

Please help me move this to front-page, let sensible Nairalanders educate me

If you can see a car to drive and deliver daily before buying your own, it will help you know the does and don't of public transport, before venturing into public transport I weighed my options very well, it hasn't been easy but we are pulling through, and to those telling you that you will make 20k daily it's all fallacy, A Nissan Micra on higher purchase here in Ibadan is 1.4million and it will take you 2 and a half years to complete the payment.

Hope all is well. On what topic

ariefadenco:


Abuja agent, will like to get in touch with you

lanrexdo:
Mini Bus Hightly profitable since you are the driver!!!

Note.. You are getting a toks min bus for 800K at most

He can't even get it at 1m naira these days, not even in Lagos. That motor is hot cake.

Inside ladipo he would get at 750-800

maasoap:

mabeni:
750k is it tokunbo?

have you seen the new one before

This is lagos and not ibadan and the said bus is not higher purchase but outright buying..

In lagos.. Higher purchase of the bus goes from 1.4-1.5m

As for the mirca. It won't work in lagos.. never.. and also.. if you want to buy outright mirca should be 550-800k at most if clean tittle

10 trips Cele to Miles is 20k.

Cele to mile2 is 100 naira and people will drop before ijesha.

I can't argue with you

Definitely not tok. I'm serious.

When was did you enter the market and anyway i am a regular inside there and know my way around there.

How much do you now intend to get it? haha

Honestly speaking, if you have time or pass through the area, price it. Manual ones.
I'm into mini buses business. The one we bought yesterday, it was 1,130,000 naira with damaged break lights and corroded floor in some sections.
Others that were in good conditions were between 1250k and 1350k naira.
Cutting (those that were cut into pieces abroad and brought in as parts) before the lockdown was 900k but now 1,100k naira and above.
I might need one this week or next week as I'm still waiting for the loan I applied for. If I can link up with you to see what you are talking about and how real it is. But this Coro thing is a big problem

I have a problem with mini bus engine.
It is not reliable. I have seen so many of them packed up.

Toyota bro is sweeter than Suzuki ,economically Toyota is better.

None

You're joking...that Suzuki uses fuel like bajaj bike

Conductor261:

that Suzuki the way you will be visiting mechanic and their parts are not readily available.

Toyota is good and save for uber
I pray God send helper to buy one for me

Sorry I was wrong.

Well done bro, you are a real driver, not people who claim to be making 100% ROI within four months, now to the OP transportation is sweet and come with its own stress, I am a cab driver in Ibadan, you make profit someday and make looses too. If you can huzzle well you should be able to save from 2k-4k daily or more sometimes, Monday to Saturday, but be rest assured that you will face, VIO, Police, FRSC even with complete papers. Sometimes rain will scatter work, you will be too weak to work at times and so on, but in all transportation is sweet if you own the car. And the more you use your car the more it wear and tear. Though am planning of switching to haulage, get a cabstar to convey market women from the market or farm produce, it's stressful but the money come in once, unlike the 50 naira to 300 naira per passenger after shouting at the top of your voice.

That's the fact. Most people claiming to know about transportation inhere never practice it in reality. You've said it all

Haulage is lucrative ooo, bro just one trip is someone else's salary. Transport is sweet and comes with lot of freedom. It can also turn one into a millionaire if you are diligent and know your.

I want to go back into it, but my parents are hell bent on me getting a degree first.
Though if I could get capital up to 1.4/1.5m I will rush to buy Mazda bus.

My love for long distance travel is out of this world.

Mazda bus bawo?

Conductor261:

I like it for a start. Toyota hiace ( hummer bus) is quite expensive.

Why not the Sienna

Conductor261:

Why not the Sienna

For that price, the only sienna that makes more money than Mazda is the 06/07 till date. The lower models are not mostly used for long distance again.

For instance, while travelling to Ilorin Mazda fare is 3k, sienna fare is 4k.

Mazda 14 passengers *3k = 42k minus load and parcel fee

Sienna 7 passengers *4k = 28k.

Forget about the speed, both can move to and fro that same day

Hmmm Mazda is slow and lazy slope climber

Wiifesnatcher:




bro do you know how much Datsun and Dalihatus is sold?


thanks for your response

I THINK CURRENTLY IT'S BW 800 OR 850K

Conductor261:

That's one of its disadvantages, I'll just manage it for a start and look for a route with low hills like Ife, Ilesha, Akure etc

But trust me, within 4month of driving it yourself, you will have gotten back the capital

That's if you don't die from agbero wahala, armed robbers on the road... Police stray bullet, kidnappers... Dangote truck

gaby:


No idea, sorry.

over here in d east..800 to 870k

Bro, sienna on long tour also suffers the same.

I haven't done a long distance transport biz though, but my friend that is into it has never experience anything of such, and he started about 3 years ago.
To tell that he is plying Lagos to kebbi.
