    I have 6 years of experience doing UBER and Lyft for
    XL. Toyota seanna and buy Used car . 2017 and up ⬆️ don’t spend more than $15,000.
    And do it in the city area ( downtown ) or do only on the weekends.don’t go to the airport it is waist of time.
    Do Uber X and Lyft x on the normal days. Camry is nice 👍 for Uber X.

    Excellent video. Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge.
    I drive in a suburb outside of NYC…Westchester County. My ideal vehicle for this location driving Uber X is a Civic. I bought it new in 2018 prior to even considering driving Uber. After three years of driving Uber, I’m averaging 33.3 mpg. The low cost of ownership, excellent fuel economy, and reliability makes this the perfect choice for me.

  • @PlatosCaveInc
    @PlatosCaveInc ปีที่แล้ว +9

    You need to clarify the fact that even though you're driving an XL vehicle, you're not always going to get XL fares. Although much more frequent than Uber Black or Select etc., it's still nowhere near as common as Uber X and with an XL vehicle, you'll be predominantly providing X trips in that car. That said, the cost factor is unmitigated by the fact that your expenses to operate are higher than a small sedan on the same X platform. Many drivers have gotten duped into getting an XL vehicle under guise of earning more per trip only to find out that their expenses have increased and their profits did not rise commensurate with their added costs.

      @@TheRideshareHustle Another factor to consider, in order to get the most XL fares, one would have to predominantly drive at night when the demand for such requests are at its highest. That said, you will be predominantly dealing with a younger age demographic, whose propensity to be a tad belligerent and/or disrespectful (either towards you or in the manner in which they treat your vehicle, ie: refuse left behind, concealing open containers of alcohol, etc). The best times for getting the most respectful XL riders is throughout the daylight hours when they are either going towards or coming from an airport or in need of transporting large objects.

    I just purchased a 2018 BMW 530e. I’m getting about 38mpg combined. I drive in the Boston area as well. The Lyft lux rides are nice, but they are few and far between. I find that when I set my vehicle to accept all rides, I get no lux requests. But when I am set to lux only, I’m sitting around waiting all day. I feel like it’s almost a waste to drive economy rides. I just signed up for Uber (waiting on background check). Hopefully my premium rides will increase once I’m driving on both platforms.

    Uber XL is currently paying: $1.296 per mile, $0.2448 per minute, $1.44 base fare. Uber X is currently paying: $0.7049 per mile, $0.2399 per minute, $0.93 base fare. Lyft is paying exactly the same, give or take a fraction of a cent. This data is relevant to the Portland, OR market. So, currently in this market it pays less than even twice as much profit per mile to drive Uber XL than X.

      Well it didn’t start out planned that way, just kind of happened. I started not knowing anything about this gig, so here’s a rundown.
      Started: may 20 2019 bought a new leftover Elantra. Drove it 2 months 16,250 miles. decided I wanted to do airport only and comfort just came out and wanted to do that.
      Bought a new leftover Buick La Crosse that could also do premium on 7-31-19.
      Jan 20 Premier came out. Traded the Buick in on a New Tahoe.
      April 2020. Pandemic hit Premier dead. Sold Tahoe made 3 grand. 10k miles on it.
      Bought a new 2020 Accord (comfort/X) in may 2020. No one driving at the Airport. Killed it$$$
      Aug 13 2020. Traded accord on a Caravan GT
      2019 with 11k mikes on. XL was really hot at the airport. No X cars so riders were forced to take Xl. Dec 30 2020. Sold van for what I paid for it I put 24k on it. Bought 2020 Qx60. I missed Premier. Killer deal. Put 27k miles on it traded it on a New Highlander Hybrid. Got 500 less than I paid for it.
      Tomorrow trading Highlander in on a Suburban.
      Put 14k on it in 2 months. Getting 300 les than I paid. Tax savings of 2900 too on top.
      I’m very good at the used market and have contacts in buying, no finance.
      I shot for 8k a month. It’s going good.

    Q.
    I live in Las Vegas and have a paid off 2018 dodge grand cravan with 90000miles on it.
    Is it a good vehicle to do Uber, lyft and other delivery jobs and also Turo?
    Is it better to open an LLC. And register the vehicle under the business account??

    • @TheRideshareHustle
      @TheRideshareHustle  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Good question. You know, I think with the van you would crush some XL rides in Vegas, doing both Uber and Lyft. Don't go crazy investing in LLC or anything just yet. Start driving, learn the business and then make a more educated decision. I hope that makes sense.

    Be aware, if you're going to be giving out rideshare driving financial advice, that driver pay rate cards, vary *WILDLY* depending on market. *HUGE* Also, I would recommend *NOT* making a significant financial commitment for rideshare purposes right now if the PUA money hasn't ended yet in your market. In the first few weeks after the PUA money ends in your market, expect to see a big surge of people returning to driving. Personally, I'm predicting that within 3-ish months after PUA money ending, most markets will be back to driver oversaturation again. My advice is, right now, wait a few months and let that shake out, then re-assess.
