I need a new car to be able to drive for uber, but my budget is $10k and it would be my car for everything. Anyone drive for uber? What kind of cars do you drive for it?
>>14018452
Anything that can fit tall people please.

If you like taking it up the ass and want your passengers to know you'll take hard dick as payment you could drive one of these
>>14018517
Yeah, because certainly theres nothing in between.
People drive uber to make extra money, you are just a numbskull if you drive a v8 gashog for that. You dont get paid extra for showing up in a v8.
But if you like eating into your own livelihood just to show everyone what a big straight man you are, feel free you closet faggot
OP here, does this look like a good car for uber driving? Would you say it seats 4 comfortably?

Pfft, I was just pretending to be retarded.
How about a serious suggestion, whatever year accord.
Although, I don't know why you'd want to work for a company which leaves all expenses to it's employees, and at the same time DD'ing the same car you use for uber.
>>14018517
Too small
>>14018641
this.
you would have to be a special kind of retard to want to work for uber, let alone purchase a vehicle for that sole purpose.
However, accord is probably the best option
Uberman picked me up today in a Ford Focus, maybe 4-5 years old... wasn't too bad. Maybe could get something with a bit more space but overall the car was nice. Might fall in that price range, not sure what those go for but new I think they are under 20k so probably that guys car was worth 10 or so..
>>14018452
You can get like a 2009 Camry Hybrid. It won't be a blast to drive, but Toyota's Hybrid system is extremely reliable (The Avalon Hybrid topped this year's worry-free index of Cars.com) and it gets great gas mileage if you are driving it for a living. There really is not a better option.
>>14018452
I have 2011 galant and I like it a lot it is close to a full size sedan and gets good mpgs and reliable. Not a lot of them were sold because they are not anything special but ride really good and around 20.5 mpg driving regular 17-18 driving like a dick in the city 30 highway.
Got mine for 10k
>>14018452
Get one of these, I've seen a few of them for around $10k.

These cars are so boring it is impressive to have them all in a row.
>>14019470
As much as I'd enjoy it, I doubt most uber passengers want to go whipping around in a riced up supra just to get home from the bar
>>14018610
Alphonse you are the biggest faggot tripfag there is
You're the only faggot that still posts that memegraph, just do us all a favour and drive that gtr into a tree
>>14019470
The galant is not that boring it has navigation leather seats climate control heated seats it would be good for uber it is just really boring to drive
>>14019509

That's so exciting

What kind of money can you make on Uber? I'd love to make some extra money by driving.

You can't use your normal insurance if you pick people up for a living. If you have an accident with a passenger in the car and your insurance finds out, they will deny your claim.
Food for thought.
>>14020576
how is it any different than having a friend in the car?
>>14018499
That's what I was partially thinking when I bought my P71. Turns out there is a cosmetic inspection so all the dings and holes, and horn/rear door functionality fail a typical patrol car. Much simpler to buy a town car if going the Panther route.
>>14020409
Shit. So giving people 10 rides a day for 6 days is good enough to make 50k? That doesn't sound too bad, does it?
>>14020606
That's what I was thinking, but then you have the insurance/gas/maintenance cost. So that would pump up the figure to 15 people a day. If you live in a big city that shouldn't be too bad. I wonder if it would be doable during the day, I wouldn't want to contend with the night life people.
>>14020606
you have to figure in the costs and even worse is the increased chance of an accident just by virtue of being on the road longer
>>14020591
If the insurance finds out, they'll basically drop your coverage. Something to do with being a taxi and not having commercial insurance

I don't want a bunch of dirty, sketchy ass, poor people in my car all day.

You're making money. Government hates it when you make money.

>Not picking up drunk sloots on Uber from bars
>>14018499
It has to be less then like 5 yrs old I believe for uber
>>14020777
10 in most places except pennsylvania where it's 8
>>14020760
so I can be falsely accused of rape the next day by some entitled attention whoring victim complex millennial.
I dunno about 'Murica but in Canadaland you need a commercial insurance policy if your using a personal vehicle for a business ie Ride Sharing, Delivering Pizzas, etc, which is $5000+ a year. Get in an accident without that and you'll get your ass sued off.
Also, Enjoy your glazed cylinders.
I just started doing lyft, during the day. I do around 4 hours a day and make around 20 an hour, which is fine for me. I was making that much full time in shitty warehouse jobs.
Weekends i work at a restaurant too.
But anyway, if you live in a big city it's actually fun during day time hours because no one's drunk and you feel safer. And lyft has an insurance policy that covers you if you're in an accident with a passenger.
You can make a shitload of cash in a week with this, idk about uber but lyft has a prime time when demand is high and you can get up to double money for rides. Plus tips.
I'm in Los Angeles. I haven't done nights yet, but anyone have any tips with dealing for drunks? I wanna make some extra christmas money.
>>14020913
I started working with a regular cab company on nights. The trick with drunks is staying calm yet firm. Remember that their impulse control is poor so shouting will just make them mad. You can always refuse a fare if they feel dangerous or like a "bad idea".
Keep your cash somewhere not obvious and keep it in two places just in case you get robbed. It's not likely but it can happen. A dash cam pointing in to the car and at the back seat with a nice blinking light will help deter this. It also helps deter attackers as they're on camera. Let them know the camera is there when they get in and start recording so you can catch their consent to be recorded when they come in.
Mace is your friend. Keep some under the seat or in the glovebox (where they probably think you have the money).
>>14018505
Uber doesn't care about your cylinders or gas mileage. They only care about modernity and comfort.
>>14019470
>hey /o/ I need a car for work
>dont get those, they are boring to drive
im sure semi-trucks or work vans arent fun to drive either
>>14020960
I would never drive a panel truck with a shitty Nurburgring time.
My dumb ass sister just got an iA, is it enough to sign up for one of the upper tier uber classes? You get more money with newer or higher end cars no?
>>14020967
keeeek

That's what I use for uber 4 cylinder $30 fill up...btw one of the captcha was a picture of a accord

>being your own boss is retarded
>>14020788
Yup if you're trying to hook up with drunk uber girls, you're an idiot and you'll be on your own Uber will disappear.
>>14020978
Nope that'll be uber x but it might actually be too small.
>>14020943
What's a good 720p dashcam that loops /o/?
>>14020591
Its considered commercial use and it requires to have a whole different tier of insurance THAT COSTS FUCKING TONS. Pizza drivers need it, too, but we never get it. Co-worker got into an accident and being the honest ignorant person he was said he was on the job and he had to front 1500 for repairs on his own because his insurance denied coverage, so they went through the other persons insurance and they forwarded that over to debt collectors.
It's like fucking quadruple the normal insurance for business insurance. You can deduct that from taxes but only if you're actually able to beat the minimum amount of deductions in order to get money back, which you won't. I tried to claim all of my vehicle expenses and gas and still wasn't able to break that number.
It's something like 5800 if your only income is uber/pizza delivery. FOOD FOR THOUGHT.

I bought this, it's great. Low light visibility is pretty poor but I mostly have it for accountability, it doesn't need to be super high def night vision, it just has to show what actually occurred. It cant read license plates, either, so you gotta say them out if you want to remember one.

Prove it is boarder line illegal.
Also, my father does Uber part time and makes nearly $150-$200 a day within just four hours. The only thing I'd say he has the advantage over most Uber drivers is that he lives in the middle of wine country and gets both rich fucks and ladies of the night all the time.
