@Therideshareguys Uber robbing us ! More and more customers telling me what they tip and it’s not matching up ! Today $5.04 ride comes in and customer stated he gave me $6 tip and Uber doesn’t show tip on itemized break down . That’s highway robbery!
I do Ubereats only but we have the same issue. There was an order that came through what's called trip radar and it's always orders no one originally took because the pay was laughable. So this stacked order of 3 deliveries came through it was 32 miles for $6 and change! I was like no one is going to take that while I was laughing and saying that to myself it said order accepted by another driver!!! Ppl need to STOP taking that and $2 orders!!
@@dennyjack3rd Sergio this is interesting as we look to the state of Washington as the gold standard. Any way to see the YOY ride volume in that state?
todays twenty somethings cannot add or figure numbers go to any mc'ds you'll see - will always take any ride that looks ok but cost many miles of gasoline
I watched the entire video waiting for Kyle to provide his knowledge or offer tips. All I got was no surge, no trip and to press the decline button and wait for better fare offers. This could have been summed up in the first 5 minutes. How about telling us what to specifically look for in a decent ride request, like making sure to add up the total miles and making a comparison to how much you're getting paid from these upfront fares to figure out total $$/mile? And/Or also how long the trip is going to take and where it's going to take you - to the busy city or the slow suburbs? Deadhead miles back to busy areas. So many times drivers will receive high dollar fares and squeel like little school girls and press the accept button without doing the math. Once the driver realizes he/she's getting paid $0.85/mile, theyre not so excited about driving anymore. I got one yesterday... Drive 34 miles for $24. THIS is a ridiculous fare offer, but drivers will accept this. Or drive 200 miles for $119.00. That's 3 hours one way and a deadhead back home. I did the math on this one... after paying for gasoline, the cash left over would be around 47 bucks for 6 hours of driving. Not including tires, brakes or other maintenance. This video is just about Kyle and his personal experience driving his Tesla for Uber and Lyft. I also kept hearing him speak in the past tense, so I question if he's still driving on the apps or not. Good luck out there. Stay safe, be well, make money and get home!!
Depends on so many factors is that highway miles? Are you in a 4 cylinder. 85cents a mile isn’t that bad. Truckers aren’t even making that. Maybe that ride is taking me where I’m trying to be. Better to take it and get paid then dead riding to another spot. So many factors come into play and I don’t think any rideshare driver should give tips. I learned a long time ago you gotta just go out into your market and figure it out. My first few weeks I was making 9 dollars a hr it seemed. I almost quit until somebody told me you gotta learn the market and come out and drive at the right times. I made 70k last year doing Lyft averaging about 45-50 hours a week
@@TB-mj7gt - Exactly, DavidCrane basically answered his own question, there is NO Magic Bullet, you have to Learn your Area or as I would call it, find you "Fishing Spots", where you can fish all the time and make good Money. It also depends on the Day of the Week for the "Fishing Spot" and also the time in Day and also knowing your Costs and Expenses plus Allowing for the Unforeseen things, so putting in an Extra $1,000 to $2000 as a Unforeseen Expense per Year, if it does not Happen, you just made an Extra $2000 that year.
@@fixtheapp418 70k on 45-50 hours sounds like 20k too much for no education required and working in basketball shorts everyday. You got people doing 4 years of college coming out to that salary.
As an independent contractor we should see the photo of client pay of the contract destination address before contract can be accepted. The tier system is a safety concern 😟 uber is hiding contract information from an independent contractor and using an acceptance and cancelation process. This is making the contractor take blind contracts and subjecting them to dangerous crime areas. There should be a class action lawsuit. This information should be mandatory to accept or decline a offer of a contract. This tier system is an employer behavior.
@@coinagnosticWhy can't drivers come together to create their own app... and rideshare company, where they keep all the pay. I don't see anything Uber app does that no one else can come up with. Just that most drivers don't have the right mindset. Like waiting in airport lot for 1hr for a $20 ride.
Everytime someone mentions how much they make, they should follow it up with their market and the time they put in. It leaves some drivers thinking they're doing something wrong. Some markets will be roughly $75 a day if that. Some $200. But its the market. There isnt any magic.
Is the market and long hours I did $250 yesterday multi from 7 AM until 7 PM… I drove about 150 miles and I drove around three different cities. A lot of people think they make that much money sitting at home or sitting at one shopping center. That’s just not the case.
I remember hitting 3K on one week with Uber having a sense of “LIFE” at the same time but that week is like winning a lotto…it’s a wishful thinking for full time driver to experience it on a weekly basis
I remember when I was making $1500 to $2000 a week. Now I can’t even make $800 a week in Cleveland. Please if you are reading this don’t waste your time and energy on Uber and Lyft. This is my last month.
Yes you can make a lot of money . The problem that those people arent talking about is the consequences. Those people have to work 6 7 days a week crazy hours 12 hours days. These people have NO LIFE to actually enjoy the money. Relationships suffer and theres lonliness. Health suffers back pain, lonliness , etc. Then the car breaks down more so all that money goes right back into car and youre broke again its a never ending cycle Its best to only do that short term.
Yes you nailed it. The only way to reach that kind of money is by working 12 hours 6 to 7 days. I do it in Atlanta and every thing you explain happens to me.
During pandemic no one was accepting anything less than 1.00/ mile rides. Was so nice to watch the lowball pricing fall away. Now where I'm at soooo many people just sign up and do rides for free . it's a never ending cycle (OC California) The only problem I have with Tesla math is you don't know maintenance and actual cost of repairs in the near future. You aren't earning 56k/yr to pay off your car. You are earning 56k/yr to pay your bills and the car is NOT paid off with that although I absolutely LOVE the positive feel of the video . big thumbs up
Yes, I caught the same paradox in what he said here too. Also, he didn’t really give much tangible advice either other than only accept surge pricing, but we have rent and bills to pay out here to not go homeless. Also, I have a friend who is a car enthusiast and he says to never buy a Tesla b/c the only co. That can do any repairs on it or get parts for it is tesla! So they own u! And it’s not cheap for those Maintenace repairs etc.
@@SolutionsWithin I love the thought of electric cars or a Tesla, but I think I'm a solid 5 years from making the jump. That should be about the same time that the autonomous vehicles will be taking over the driving roles and firing us all off 😅🤣
Why do gig workers honestly think they deserve $1.00 a mile. You realize truckers don’t even make that right. Nobody should be paying close to ten bucks for going 5 miles
@@TB-mj7gt I live and drive in TO. In big cities like this, often it takes 50 minutes to go 5 kms. So, should I earn less than $5 per hour? Minus gas since we drive our own cars!! We aren’t doing long haul down the highways delivering goods, we are providing customer service and dealing with inner city traffic. Different animal. Also, my uncle drives tractor trailer and he told me he gets paid by the hour and gets benefits. Uber drivers get no benefits and if business slows, we sit on the side of the road and freeze or overheat earning nothing, which is scary.
I'll be 30 this year and have driven for the big 2 for over 6 years. You do the math. It is absolutely the time to reject offers that do not make financial sense. Do you want to make $100 in 20 trips or do you want to make $100 in 5-10 trips. Always KNOW YOUR WORTH
Let me sum it up folks. 1. You will need to live in 1 of 3 of the top markets in the country. 2. You will need a premier car 3. You will drive 60 plus hours a week. No strategies needed.
@SergioSMTMC Sergio listen to this video.. this guy now only does Lyft Lux and that's it. Also we don't want to know how much people make per week working 20 hours a day or 6 hours a day I want to know how much money they make per hour!
When people hear $2,000 per week there’s definitely going to be an over saturation of NEW DRIVERS chasing those same numbers. People should keep their numbers private.
@@michaelbibby01 I don't think so. People want a quick solution to their financial problems, and they will take this information at face value and not understand that you have to work for those numbers. Sure, many people will show up, but they will only stick around for a short time because they won't do the work. People from around the world watch these videos to try to get a baseline and see what is possible. Withholding isn't a good thing to do because it hurts you in the long run. If riders can't find rides, they will stop using the platform. Eventually, Uber and Lyft will fold.
I used to be a corporate sales guy for a large corporation where I achieved #1 in the world ranking. I was literally working around the clock as a bachelor squeezing in time for workouts, meals and limited sleep. Made great money, bought properties, stock portfolio, etc. I then became a retail convenience store and restaurant owner with multiple locations and worked even harder. I had my first baby boy and sold it all to be with him full time during the day and so I rideshare drive at night and early mornings. I must say, driving is a lot less per hour but it pays bills for the moment so I don't have to take money out of savings. 12 hours shifts aren't strenuous if it's busy. It is the boredom at slow times which is tiring. As an XL driver the most I have made is $430 in 12 hours but that was on a holiday weekend Saturday evening (therefore it would not happen everyday of the week). Therefore, I am at a loss on how to get to $2500-$3000 per week as an XL driver.
@@evamaria644 i just use lyft at the moment as Uber turned me off. I have made countless calls to their customer support over the last six months and every call they say they are fixing an issue with the DMV and I should be turned back on in 3-5 days. In the meantime, it's been 6 months. I have told them this and have asked for an escalation but their reply is that is all we have for now for you. Yes, I am in a big city where I drive.
Great interview Sergio! Adapt and survive is the only way with these apps. I had a pretty profitable strategy when I was doing rideshare in LA. Once all the bonuses dried up I changed to DF only trips. Fortunately I lived less than 2 miles from Universal Studios. So with my XL vehicle I would just grab trips back n forth from Universal Studios to Disneyland area. Surges were plentiful and I could knock out about 8-10 total trips between 7pm - midnight and gross on average $475. And because I was transporting mostly tourists I could stretch those miles out in either direction to make the most money possible while not affecting the ETA by more than a few minutes. Good times!
How can I ever earn $2K or $3K per week when I keep getting $3.00+ per ride and Uber gets $5.00+ for that ride here in the Inland Empire side of Los Angeles!! Simply impossible!! What an injustice Uber does to their drivers!!..
@SergioSMTMC Thanks for that information!! Here in the Inland Empire..Uber would has that so called “boost” program wherein you earn from $1.50 up to $4.50 (but very seldomly it gets that high) on certain hours..mostly after 12pm..but when they do that..that’s the only time we really get the fair rates of $5-$8 on the average rides!! And just imagine if I only get 2x$7 rides=$14 in an hour during a “boost” hour..and when they are not running it..just imagine having $3.50x4 rides=$14..which is a dollar below minimum wage scenario!! And that is what’s happening to us right now!! Yesterday..at the Ontario Airport the surge was at plud $16.00 per..and when I got closer to the area it disappeared!! What an injustice these people do to their drivers!!
I’m in the same boat as him. I rarely drive Uber anymore. No premier in my city. Rather do lux and lux black instead. Rather then taking bs just to stay busy. That’s why I bought a Nintendo switch to occupy myself sitting and waiting.
12:30 I agree I wish we could get enough driver not to drive unless there is a reasonable and transparent rate. Which should be more than a cab as we take care of our own vehicles and pay our own insurance.
@Unbroken- I wish everyone would stop buying Iphones so the price would go down, I wish everyone stopped going to Starbucks so the price of my Mocha would go down, I wish that people would stop driving so the price of gas would go down. Can you help? I wish more of you took ownership of your rideshare business and learned how to profit in spite of these predatory companies, but that would mean the victimhood would have to end. Not likely!!!!
Pick up rides that is profitable. Thats the only way these blood sucking companies will increase the fare. So many of drivers out there doesn’t know what they are doing. After gas, maintenance, insurance and your time. You actually lost money if the fare is less then a dollar per mile. First don’t look at the time that take you completed the ride. To decide which ride to take: first look at the mile needed to completed the ride. If u see $11 for 13 miles don’t take it. Most of the rides comes in is 13 miles for $9, 27 miles for $20. Yes it will waste time sitting and not making $$, but its better to lost $$ right? Out of 50 rides that come in, probably only 3-5 rides that is profitable.
IT'S NOT about driving less, it is about declining trips. If everyone decline trips the algo would have to adjust. Right now we are pinned against each other like in every single space where a broker puts something out and allows bids. You accepting a ride is merely you putting your bid on that ride for the lowest rate possible. Meanwhile if you pass it up, I pass it up Norma passes it up, perhaps algo/rider will get desperate and let's say switch to comfort, or up the bid until someone gets it. We've all had the rides where rider pays 15, and you are getting 30 bucks and its not the surge, its the fact the ride is in a low driver area, and all of the drivers are rejecting it until someone comes along and gets lucky with the offer and accepts it. Then to make up for that 15 dollar loss, they will nickel and dime during the other times of day. Just got to know, but because rides dry up people are desperate and accept everything they can just to make a buck, meanwhile costs are eating it all away...
The total cost of his Tesla is $12-15 an hour, $600-750 for 50 hours. The warranty totally expires at ~130,000 miles, about two years of rideshare driving. Batteries need to be replaced every three years or so for $10,000. Tire wear is excessive due to the weight of the vehicle
A problem is over looked, smaller cities still opporate on the old blind rides. They pay $.88 but they lie on the distances amd time. I drove for 35 minutes just to get to the location and ensed up with $5.17. There was no up front fees there.
Dealing with the blind crap too! I hate it. I contacted Uber to see if that could change but they gave me the run around. I am in a small city…..but I go to big cities to drive and still blind trip requests. How can I change this? Can I give a different home address (family member’s address) in a big city and rock out in my small city! Those blind requests are the worst!
@SergioSMTMC but without up front fares how would we cherry pick? The range of ride quality is astounding. In my market just in the last 3 days I've gotten ride requests for as low as $11 / hour and as high as $66 for x rides. Premium rides have ranged from $32 / hour to over $100. I typically don't take x rides less than $30 / hour which seems to be the sweet spot to stay steadily booked. Not sure if setting it higher and not being booked solid would turn out better. Using the old 60 cents per mile and 13 cents per minute pay things did not vary for different drivers on the same ride. Or did they? Honestly don't know. Not trolling
So you talk about driving with a Tesla but what about someone like me that can only do Uber X. I can't afford a $70,000 car to do Lux. Are there strategies for one that drives a 4 door hatchback?
I live in Las Vegas. 5 year driver, (minus 1.5 damdemic hiatus)! Clark county (Vegas, etc) is twice the size of Los Angeles County! However the population of LA is over 10 million! The pop. of Vegas, about 2.3 million! 18.2 miles from center of LA to LAX! 6-7 miles from downtown Vegas to LAS! Yes, $2500-3000 is possible…doable! IN LA! $4, $5 and many under $10 rides are the norm in Las Vegas, because we are concentrated into a smaller area. $20, even $15 rides are fewer and farther between! They’re there, but they’re rare! (I love my job! I love my job! I love my job!) 👍😂🤪
Basically this isn't gonna happen with Uber X or XL. At almost halfway through the video there's really no helpful info. But then again click on the link and buy a course for $99.
Everytime someone says no to acceptance they raise it up little by little I have witnessed this in the trip radar. It goes there and after each ping decline it goes up a little until someone picks it
I think $2 per mile and $10 minimum. Company profits are excessive. Ware and tare on vehicles are drivers responsibility. So be fair So customers don't pay more just cut Company cut down SOME.
Here my 2 cents I am the most senior driver in ride-share behind Travis the 1st Uber CEO himself technically you can make $2500 a week but it’s not all profit your expenses will go to $800 a week and plus your time and tear and wear on your car! So now do the math is it worth driving for Uber or no
In Australia, we can’t see any trip information up front. Place marker on the map for pickup (no street address) and Uber’s inaccurate estimate of how far away it is. And rider’s star rating. That’s it. No trip details, no price details. So I assume almost every strategy described is impossible for us to use?
25:00 sums it up for negative drivers that it’s essential to learn how to LEVERAGE your time and Uber platform to have financial success…in other words “Be Strategic”
A question is like addressed is it seems to me that banks probably don’t want to give car loans to ppl who don’t have jobs and I’m guessing that they do not think Uber is having a real job. I’m in Canada. Can someone speak on that? Thx 😀
I drive in Vegas. F1 was a bust with $4 rides and stuck in traffic. Super Bowl Sunday I will not work most rides to Allegiant stadium from the strip are $4-5 but the street where drop of is 1. Full of cops looking to write tickets for anything and 2 Dean Martin Dr becomes a one way streets so it takes 15 minutes plus gas ~4 bucks a gallon. Im was born at night but not last night. Used to make 120.0 for 4?hours now I make 65.00 to 70.00 and $20.00 of that hours to gas. I start working for Amazon next week, don’t think I’ll drive for Lyft anymore.
How many hours a day is he working and how many days to hit $2,000? I can pull $1000-12000 working 30 hours for uber. That's DFW market. I've been thinking about pushing myself to see what it would take (hours) to break 2k, but...not sure the extra hours/miles/gas are worth it. I'm already putting 800 miles on my car a week.
You should be saving to buy a 2nd car before your car breaks down Between 14-22k for the new one and I would say it’s 22 an hour or 10$ average a trip. I would assume 80 hours to make 2k/ weekly.
Serge, I recently bought a minivan for CHEAP. I’m struggling to find an XL strategy that works for me. I’d love to see an interview with a driver who’s killing it on XL.
@@CRAPO2011 It’s a Town & Country van. So you definitely aren’t wrong. My day job is running an auto repair shop. So I’m familiar with the issues I’m looking at. With the vehicle.
I have XL car. XL alone won’t work. Maybe try what I have thought about and never done. Go to airport and turn on both Uber and Lyft XL and be patient.
14:20 I got the Y for fuel cost and self driving. Plus I wanted access to higher platforms. It has the best fuel econ of the higher platform vehicles just wish there was a full size suv
2 month ago in Richmond Virginia, I make $1800 to $2,000 a week now Uber cut half of the my income now. I make $800 to $1100 a week 12 hours a day 6 day a week
I am a new driver, I don't see the "upfront Fares ", only the pick up location. Uber Support says I can only see upfront fares when I get promoted to gold status. is that true for everyone else or just in my city?
Like the video, at this time drivers need to do something else to bring in other sources of income. Continue doing uber and lyft but don’t depend on uber and lyft as your main source of income. Position yourself to take the rides the pays the most. Its hard to make a decision to take the rides or not within few second. If you missed so what. Wait for the next one.
17:30 exactly Uber can't compete if they don't value drivers with higher cost and higher value vehicles. Lyft has lux and lux black without having a business and registering the car commercially.
@@JSC178 4:30-8:30am are the best hours 12noon-4pm are secondary hours for weekdays, You could even extend that till about 7pm But after 7pm it will slow down dramatically. Weekends 8pm-3am is really good money if you know the hot zones. I have things I have to do at certain times but a decent strategy is 4-8am Noon12-4pm 8-12midnight You only need to work 3 hours in those 4 hour timeframes to make 75$ then repeat. 75x2 150 75x3 225 X7days 75/dayx7days=525 150/dayx7days=1050 225x7=1575 Do what works for you But keep in mind weekday nights I’ve been seeing a lot of saturation or lack of customers after 6-7pm so Maybe don’t expect weekday nights to go well. Maybe 75x7 mornings +noon=75x7 noons But only add 75x3 for f-Sunday So 225+525+525 1275. Between9am-noon are always dead on weekday. Midnight-4is dead on weekdays. And week days nights can be dead to so while the job does say work whenever you want and flexibility you still have to know what you can and can’t do.
@@bakihanma959 25 an hour avg for 8 hours is expected. To do it in 6 hours is possible but kinda challenging. You gotta know what your doing. Know where to be before you have to be there.
How is that i was a 5 star driver with Uber and after 2 years was inexplicably deplatform because it would not accept or could scan my driver abstract after several attempts. They claimed something about community safety or something very disappointing since my real job is being a professional Taxi driver in excellent standing with the local authorities???
I have been driving for Uber and Lyft for 2 yrs. They have been doing my background check for 40 days now. I called no help they just keep bumping the date every two weeks. Please help me
Not much real incentives in my city anymore like it used to be 2 years ago.Hardly any surges worthwhile taking.This mostly depends on city you drive and times or events.
Its difficult to make money now when incentives are trimmed down to a minimum and desperate drivers accepting all garbage apps throwing at them, apps are not pressured to raise the offers.
Is chasing a ride bonus worth it? Is there a good metric to use? Here, they have a 60 dollar bonus for 30 rides, one of the best ones they've had in a while.
It's all smoke and mirrors. Chasing bonuses isn't necessarily a good idea because they'll send you bad ride requests with high miles and low fares. I've found it best to turn off the app during every ride, then turn back on after dropping off the pax. Then decline, decline, decline until a solid ride request comes through. Low miles with higher dollar amount and compare with how long and where the trip will take me. Will it take me to someplace where there is more rides or will I sit empty for long periods of time without ANY ride requests. Or, will I have a long deadhead back to a busy area.
is the app different and different states? I keep saying people talking about not taking low paying fares but the app doesn't even show me what the fare is going to pay until after I'm finished with it. in North Carolina.
You have to think about it. Do you actually use the 'benetfits" of uber gold, pro etc. Thats the only thing you lose when your acceptance drops.. Most of us dont even use those features like online school tuition and prioty airport rides. If youre interested in making more money, be picky eith your rides. They will not kickk you off the app. Alot of us already are at 10-40 percent acceptance. But we've made more money than those with 90 percent acceptance.
Acceptance rate doesn't matter whatsoever. Mine is currently 7%. If you're trying to keep your acceptance rate high then you're falling for Uber's scam, hurting yourself and all other drivers.
In Georgia I sign up to do Lyft as a New Driver I’m live 5min From the UGA and this phone pings about 60 times a hour but here is the thing that got me it say it paying $4.50 including pick up pay to drive some one 9 miles but the pick them up would be like 7 miles then I get one like $19.01 to drive them 25 miles but the pick them up like 15 miles but the Lowest I seen so far was $2.01 to drive them 0.8 miles an pick up was 6 miles I haven’t pick anybody up
Stop lying, the drivers spent a lot on daily expenses, gas, tolls, commercial insurance plus Uber cut prices for customers yet they take 50% from the fare. So what the heck are you talking about?
Problem I see work Lyft is I only make $4 on a ride that charges rider over $10. Not to mention over a half hour in traffic. Not a good system. And app is terrible.
He’s a smart guy and has a lot to teach. Thank you. However, all drivers need to realize that they are going to get in one more car accidents. Depending upon the vehicle, they’re driving this could cost them a lot of money if it’s a depreciating asset. Example you buy a brand new Camry hybrid for $40-$50,000 and it gets into an accident you’re gonna be out of pocket unless your rear ended and then it’s their fault. Expensive car such as the one he drives unless it’s under warranty if something goes wrong he’s looking at two to $5000 out of pocket for a repair He’s a smart guy. Listen to what he says, however, just remember you will get it it’s just a matter of when, and how badly. A dash cam and a good lawyer are 14:47 crucial Also, a beautiful car such as the one he has is it gonna get destroyed unless you protect the seats and all areas where people can drag their feet keys are in the Hood a bag with huge metal letters that will scratch the heck out of your car on the way in and on the way out
Or you are just lazy and not as good businessman??? Just move to CA and in November when McD's is forced to pay $22 an hour you can say "Want salt on those fries sir?"
No surge no trip? What is this surge you speak of? I know they had it when I drove 6 years ago but having just started back last week, we've not had surge one.
My Question … If you say no to the trips Uber send you does they can block the account? Cause I never dined but in my account shows if I denied 3 more it will block. How that works
I have been in this business for 10 years. You don't make that money driving Uber X. He is driving 7 days a week working both Uber and Lyft. The max on each platform is 70 hours. These drivers are getting less than 4- 6 hours of sleep a night. They are running on fumes, they're a danger to themselves, their passengers, and the public.
The driver in the video is driving Uber comfort/select in LA. He drives a Tesla. The average Uber driver is X. The earning for X are about half of Uber comfort.
@therideshareguy Is Lux still an option on Lyft? I heard a lot has changed since November 2023. I live in Orlando and worked 71 hours one week and only made $1500 gross. I was driving only on the Uber app with my 2023 Lexus ES350 which qualifies for comfort, but you don’t get many comfort requests working from 8 pm - 8 am.
The upfront premium one pays to buy an EV buys thousands of dollars ìn gasoline and when the battery dies the replacement is more then putting a new engine is a gas car.. its a farce
Was he doing Lyft also ? As a newbie there. He maybe doesn’t know. With that car. He can do Lyft lux and black in la. I don’t think Uber has those options for him there

The only way we can defeat uber and lyft is making volunteers going to the airport parking lot to unite drivrrs
@Therideshareguys Uber robbing us ! More and more customers telling me what they tip and it’s not matching up ! Today $5.04 ride comes in and customer stated he gave me $6 tip and Uber doesn’t show tip on itemized break down . That’s highway robbery!
12:30 exactly -- if all the drivers stop accepting low paying fares, uber and lyft will be forced to raise the pay for everyone.
Then volume plummets since people will ride less. The exact thing is happening here in Spokane as they just raised rates at the start of the year
I do Ubereats only but we have the same issue. There was an order that came through what's called trip radar and it's always orders no one originally took because the pay was laughable.

I was like no one is going to take that while I was laughing and saying that to myself it said order accepted by another driver!!! Ppl need to STOP taking that and $2 orders!!
@@dennyjack3rd Sergio this is interesting as we look to the state of Washington as the gold standard. Any way to see the YOY ride volume in that state?
Dont except them unless app is giving u bonuses based on number of rides. Uber/Lyft already know that!
todays twenty somethings cannot add or figure numbers go to any mc'ds you'll see - will always take any ride that looks ok but cost many miles of gasoline
Dude lives in his car. This is an example of extreme dedication and hard work. These results are not typical in any way. Props to Kyle for his grind
He said it perfectly. These gig app algorithms are PREDATORY.
Remember it's there app and business you as the individual choose to sign up. Just get your money and move on..
I watched the entire video waiting for Kyle to provide his knowledge or offer tips. All I got was no surge, no trip and to press the decline button and wait for better fare offers. This could have been summed up in the first 5 minutes.
How about telling us what to specifically look for in a decent ride request, like making sure to add up the total miles and making a comparison to how much you're getting paid from these upfront fares to figure out total $$/mile? And/Or also how long the trip is going to take and where it's going to take you - to the busy city or the slow suburbs? Deadhead miles back to busy areas.
So many times drivers will receive high dollar fares and squeel like little school girls and press the accept button without doing the math. Once the driver realizes he/she's getting paid $0.85/mile, theyre not so excited about driving anymore. I got one yesterday... Drive 34 miles for $24. THIS is a ridiculous fare offer, but drivers will accept this. Or drive 200 miles for $119.00. That's 3 hours one way and a deadhead back home. I did the math on this one... after paying for gasoline, the cash left over would be around 47 bucks for 6 hours of driving. Not including tires, brakes or other maintenance.
This video is just about Kyle and his personal experience driving his Tesla for Uber and Lyft. I also kept hearing him speak in the past tense, so I question if he's still driving on the apps or not.
Good luck out there. Stay safe, be well, make money and get home!!
Wow
@@monetarymindset_
Wow!!
Depends on so many factors is that highway miles? Are you in a 4 cylinder. 85cents a mile isn’t that bad. Truckers aren’t even making that. Maybe that ride is taking me where I’m trying to be. Better to take it and get paid then dead riding to another spot. So many factors come into play and I don’t think any rideshare driver should give tips. I learned a long time ago you gotta just go out into your market and figure it out. My first few weeks I was making 9 dollars a hr it seemed. I almost quit until somebody told me you gotta learn the market and come out and drive at the right times. I made 70k last year doing Lyft averaging about 45-50 hours a week
@@TB-mj7gt - Exactly, DavidCrane basically answered his own question, there is NO Magic Bullet, you have to Learn your Area or as I would call it, find you "Fishing Spots", where you can fish all the time and make good Money. It also depends on the Day of the Week for the "Fishing Spot" and also the time in Day and also knowing your Costs and Expenses plus Allowing for the Unforeseen things, so putting in an Extra $1,000 to $2000 as a Unforeseen Expense per Year, if it does not Happen, you just made an Extra $2000 that year.

As an independent contractor we should see the photo of client
pay of the contract destination address before contract can be accepted.
The tier system is a safety concern 😟 uber is hiding contract information from an independent contractor and using an acceptance and cancelation process. This is making the contractor take blind contracts and subjecting them to dangerous crime areas.
There should be a class action lawsuit. This information should be mandatory to accept or decline a offer of a contract.
This tier system is an employer behavior.
Uber and Lyft are working together behind the scenes and treating drivers like employees and independent contractors.
@@coinagnosticWhy can't drivers come together to create their own app... and rideshare company, where they keep all the pay. I don't see anything Uber app does that no one else can come up with. Just that most drivers don't have the right mindset. Like waiting in airport lot for 1hr for a $20 ride.
Everytime someone mentions how much they make, they should follow it up with their market and the time they put in. It leaves some drivers thinking they're doing something wrong. Some markets will be roughly $75 a day if that. Some $200. But its the market. There isnt any magic.
Very well said! 💯💢💥
Is the market and long hours I did $250 yesterday multi from 7 AM until 7 PM… I drove about 150 miles and I drove around three different cities. A lot of people think they make that much money sitting at home or sitting at one shopping center. That’s just not the case.
I remember hitting 3K on one week with Uber having a sense of “LIFE” at the same time but that week is like winning a lotto…it’s a wishful thinking for full time driver to experience it on a weekly basis
Uber will normally take you off line when you're not accepting rides and waiting on the better rides.
This definitely seems to be the case for me. If I decline multiple garbage requests, I'll stop getting any at all.
Lift do the same thing for.
Usually it's 3, but they start back right when you click GO again.
Exactly what has been happening to me! And also, once I reach about $100, they stop the requests. And where the HELL are my tips?
I remember when I was making $1500 to $2000 a week. Now I can’t even make $800 a week in Cleveland. Please if you are reading this don’t waste your time and energy on Uber and Lyft. This is my last month.
Yes you can make a lot of money . The problem that those people arent talking about is the consequences. Those people have to work 6 7 days a week crazy hours 12 hours days. These people have NO LIFE to actually enjoy the money. Relationships suffer and theres lonliness. Health suffers back pain, lonliness , etc. Then the car breaks down more so all that money goes right back into car and youre broke again its a never ending cycle
Its best to only do that short term.
You sound very ignorant haha…let the rest of us make the $3k/week. You go ahead and take all the time off and stay broke
I have tried working 12 hours a day and holy crap, i dont know how people can drive for 12 hours for 6 days straight
Well said
Yes you nailed it. The only way to reach that kind of money is by working 12 hours 6 to 7 days. I do it in Atlanta and every thing you explain happens to me.
So, what’s your plan?!
During pandemic no one was accepting anything less than 1.00/ mile rides. Was so nice to watch the lowball pricing fall away. Now where I'm at soooo many people just sign up and do rides for free . it's a never ending cycle (OC California) The only problem I have with Tesla math is you don't know maintenance and actual cost of repairs in the near future. You aren't earning 56k/yr to pay off your car. You are earning 56k/yr to pay your bills and the car is NOT paid off with that although I absolutely LOVE the positive feel of the video . big thumbs up
@SergioSMTMC wow, must be nice not having to pay other bills. Good for you.
Yes, I caught the same paradox in what he said here too. Also, he didn’t really give much tangible advice either other than only accept surge pricing, but we have rent and bills to pay out here to not go homeless. Also, I have a friend who is a car enthusiast and he says to never buy a Tesla b/c the only co. That can do any repairs on it or get parts for it is tesla! So they own u! And it’s not cheap for those Maintenace repairs etc.
@@SolutionsWithin I love the thought of electric cars or a Tesla, but I think I'm a solid 5 years from making the jump. That should be about the same time that the autonomous vehicles will be taking over the driving roles and firing us all off 😅🤣
Why do gig workers honestly think they deserve $1.00 a mile. You realize truckers don’t even make that right. Nobody should be paying close to ten bucks for going 5 miles
@@TB-mj7gt I live and drive in TO. In big cities like this, often it takes 50 minutes to go 5 kms. So, should I earn less than $5 per hour? Minus gas since we drive our own cars!! We aren’t doing long haul down the highways delivering goods, we are providing customer service and dealing with inner city traffic. Different animal. Also, my uncle drives tractor trailer and he told me he gets paid by the hour and gets benefits. Uber drivers get no benefits and if business slows, we sit on the side of the road and freeze or overheat earning nothing, which is scary.
I'll be 30 this year and have driven for the big 2 for over 6 years. You do the math. It is absolutely the time to reject offers that do not make financial sense.
Do you want to make $100 in 20 trips or do you want to make $100 in 5-10 trips.
Always KNOW YOUR WORTH
Let me sum it up folks.
1. You will need to live in 1 of 3 of the top markets in the country.
2. You will need a premier car
3. You will drive 60 plus hours a week.
No strategies needed.
The woke crowd loves to tip teslas more
Yessir. But I’m glad he’s doing well.
I know an X driver in the Bay Area that works 10-12hr days 6 days a week, does roughly $2,100-$2,500 weekly, but that’s no life.
I do the same in Atlanta but I don’t wish it on anyone. I lead a lonely and stressful ans sometimes painful life.
Probably called hard work 😂
I agree 👍🏾
Same in Chicago
How’s that no life?
7:10 it is important to have fun driving for sure or else you get burnt out
The guy drives a LUX vehicle!!!! A WHOLE DIFFERENT BALL GAME!!
@SergioSMTMC Sergio listen to this video.. this guy now only does Lyft Lux and that's it. Also we don't want to know how much people make per week working 20 hours a day or 6 hours a day I want to know how much money they make per hour!
When people hear $2,000 per week there’s definitely going to be an over saturation of NEW DRIVERS chasing those same numbers. People should keep their numbers private.
Exactly why I don't share my market.
@@michaelbibby01 I don't think so. People want a quick solution to their financial problems, and they will take this information at face value and not understand that you have to work for those numbers. Sure, many people will show up, but they will only stick around for a short time because they won't do the work. People from around the world watch these videos to try to get a baseline and see what is possible. Withholding isn't a good thing to do because it hurts you in the long run. If riders can't find rides, they will stop using the platform. Eventually, Uber and Lyft will fold.
I used to be a corporate sales guy for a large corporation where I achieved #1 in the world ranking. I was literally working around the clock as a bachelor squeezing in time for workouts, meals and limited sleep. Made great money, bought properties, stock portfolio, etc. I then became a retail convenience store and restaurant owner with multiple locations and worked even harder. I had my first baby boy and sold it all to be with him full time during the day and so I rideshare drive at night and early mornings. I must say, driving is a lot less per hour but it pays bills for the moment so I don't have to take money out of savings. 12 hours shifts aren't strenuous if it's busy. It is the boredom at slow times which is tiring. As an XL driver the most I have made is $430 in 12 hours but that was on a holiday weekend Saturday evening (therefore it would not happen everyday of the week). Therefore, I am at a loss on how to get to $2500-$3000 per week as an XL driver.
Are you in a good market and do you multi-app?
@@evamaria644 i just use lyft at the moment as Uber turned me off. I have made countless calls to their customer support over the last six months and every call they say they are fixing an issue with the DMV and I should be turned back on in 3-5 days. In the meantime, it's been 6 months. I have told them this and have asked for an escalation but their reply is that is all we have for now for you. Yes, I am in a big city where I drive.
Great interview Sergio! Adapt and survive is the only way with these apps. I had a pretty profitable strategy when I was doing rideshare in LA. Once all the bonuses dried up I changed to DF only trips. Fortunately I lived less than 2 miles from Universal Studios. So with my XL vehicle I would just grab trips back n forth from Universal Studios to Disneyland area. Surges were plentiful and I could knock out about 8-10 total trips between 7pm - midnight and gross on average $475. And because I was transporting mostly tourists I could stretch those miles out in either direction to make the most money possible while not affecting the ETA by more than a few minutes. Good times!
How can I ever earn $2K or $3K per week when I keep getting $3.00+ per ride and Uber gets $5.00+ for that ride here in the Inland Empire side of Los Angeles!! Simply impossible!! What an injustice Uber does to their drivers!!..
@SergioSMTMC Thanks for that information!! Here in the Inland Empire..Uber would has that so called “boost” program wherein you earn from $1.50 up to $4.50 (but very seldomly it gets that high) on certain hours..mostly after 12pm..but when they do that..that’s the only time we really get the fair rates of $5-$8 on the average rides!!
And just imagine if I only get 2x$7 rides=$14 in an hour during a “boost” hour..and when they are not running it..just imagine having $3.50x4 rides=$14..which is a dollar below minimum wage scenario!! And that is what’s happening to us right now!!
Yesterday..at the Ontario Airport the surge was at plud $16.00 per..and when I got closer to the area it disappeared!! What an injustice these people do to their drivers!!
I just keep on driving, I go everywhere in LA and OC. I try not to control the algorithm.
I’m in the same boat as him. I rarely drive Uber anymore. No premier in my city. Rather do lux and lux black instead. Rather then taking bs just to stay busy. That’s why I bought a Nintendo switch to occupy myself sitting and waiting.
12:30 I agree I wish we could get enough driver not to drive unless there is a reasonable and transparent rate. Which should be more than a cab as we take care of our own vehicles and pay our own insurance.
@Unbroken- I wish everyone would stop buying Iphones so the price would go down, I wish everyone stopped going to Starbucks so the price of my Mocha would go down, I wish that people would stop driving so the price of gas would go down. Can you help? I wish more of you took ownership of your rideshare business and learned how to profit in spite of these predatory companies, but that would mean the victimhood would have to end. Not likely!!!!
Pick up rides that is profitable. Thats the only way these blood sucking companies will increase the fare. So many of drivers out there doesn’t know what they are doing. After gas, maintenance, insurance and your time. You actually lost money if the fare is less then a dollar per mile. First don’t look at the time that take you completed the ride. To decide which ride to take: first look at the mile needed to completed the ride. If u see $11 for 13 miles don’t take it. Most of the rides comes in is 13 miles for $9, 27 miles for $20. Yes it will waste time sitting and not making $$, but its better to lost $$ right? Out of 50 rides that come in, probably only 3-5 rides that is profitable.
IT'S NOT about driving less, it is about declining trips. If everyone decline trips the algo would have to adjust. Right now we are pinned against each other like in every single space where a broker puts something out and allows bids. You accepting a ride is merely you putting your bid on that ride for the lowest rate possible. Meanwhile if you pass it up, I pass it up Norma passes it up, perhaps algo/rider will get desperate and let's say switch to comfort, or up the bid until someone gets it. We've all had the rides where rider pays 15, and you are getting 30 bucks and its not the surge, its the fact the ride is in a low driver area, and all of the drivers are rejecting it until someone comes along and gets lucky with the offer and accepts it. Then to make up for that 15 dollar loss, they will nickel and dime during the other times of day. Just got to know, but because rides dry up people are desperate and accept everything they can just to make a buck, meanwhile costs are eating it all away...
@@normastits4179 Good one.
The total cost of his Tesla is $12-15 an hour, $600-750 for 50 hours. The warranty totally expires at ~130,000 miles, about two years of rideshare driving. Batteries need to be replaced every three years or so for $10,000. Tire wear is excessive due to the weight of the vehicle
I'm a lyft driver but No dealer want me to give the car ,because I'm a ride share
A problem is over looked, smaller cities still opporate on the old blind rides. They pay $.88 but they lie on the distances amd time. I drove for 35 minutes just to get to the location and ensed up with $5.17. There was no up front fees there.
Dealing with the blind crap too! I hate it. I contacted Uber to see if that could change but they gave me the run around. I am in a small city…..but I go to big cities to drive and still blind trip requests. How can I change this? Can I give a different home address (family member’s address) in a big city and rock out in my small city!
Those blind requests are the worst!
Same here, I hate it
It does not matter if you drive 5 or 12 hs,if your market sucks,you're screw.
Location,Location,Location!!
You are lucky that you have Upfront Fare.
@SergioSMTMC but without up front fares how would we cherry pick? The range of ride quality is astounding. In my market just in the last 3 days I've gotten ride requests for as low as $11 / hour and as high as $66 for x rides. Premium rides have ranged from $32 / hour to over $100. I typically don't take x rides less than $30 / hour which seems to be the sweet spot to stay steadily booked. Not sure if setting it higher and not being booked solid would turn out better. Using the old 60 cents per mile and 13 cents per minute pay things did not vary for different drivers on the same ride. Or did they? Honestly don't know. Not trolling
So you talk about driving with a Tesla but what about someone like me that can only do Uber X. I can't afford a $70,000 car to do Lux. Are there strategies for one that drives a 4 door hatchback?
I live in Las Vegas. 5 year driver, (minus 1.5 damdemic hiatus)! Clark county (Vegas, etc) is twice the size of Los Angeles County! However the population of LA is over 10 million! The pop. of Vegas, about 2.3 million! 18.2 miles from center of LA to LAX! 6-7 miles from downtown Vegas to LAS! Yes, $2500-3000 is possible…doable! IN LA! $4, $5 and many under $10 rides are the norm in Las Vegas, because we are concentrated into a smaller area. $20, even $15 rides are fewer and farther between! They’re there, but they’re rare!

9:50 I felt the same way struggling because to many drivers, and surge dropping, now we know the purposely took away incentives.
Basically this isn't gonna happen with Uber X or XL. At almost halfway through the video there's really no helpful info. But then again click on the link and buy a course for $99.
Yeah these guys are grifters. I respect the hustle but they're not helpful tbh.
Come on guys everyone by now knows that if you on the road 60-70 hours you will make 2-3k a week
depending on where you are
5 1/2 yrs. later and my car still has bed bugs from doing Lyft.
You can even see tiny unhatched eggs inside the instrument cluster.
Perhaps the bed bugs came from the people who spend the most time in your car?????
Wow! One more reason for me to give up ride share!!!😢🤮
@SergioSMTMC The pros will not offer a guarantee since it is so difficult to eradicate from a car.
Maybe it’s time to rent a car
Yet they also penalize you basically if you accept a call and they cancel on you. It seems like it goes against your rating now.
Uber sent me a request
For $117 for 175 miles 2.5 hours and I'm surprised how many people say yes.
Everytime someone says no to acceptance they raise it up little by little I have witnessed this in the trip radar. It goes there and after each ping decline it goes up a little until someone picks it
I take that. Still money
I DRIVE UBER IN NJ. .70 cent ×MILE .18 cent × MINUTES.
HOW CAN YOU MAKE EVEN 1500 A WEEK!?
DRIVING OVER 65 HOURS A WEEK!?
I think $2 per mile and $10 minimum. Company profits are excessive. Ware and tare on vehicles are drivers responsibility. So be fair So customers don't pay more just cut Company cut down SOME.
Good suggestion. Ride share drivers should be guaranteed a minimum of $25/hr or $2.50/mile.
Here my 2 cents I am the most senior driver in ride-share behind Travis the 1st Uber CEO himself technically you can make $2500 a week but it’s not all profit your expenses will go to $800 a week and plus your time and tear and wear on your car! So now do the math is it worth driving for Uber or no
Just get out of ride share , Kyle probably works 14 hours a day 7 days a week . Still not worth it , use uber as a stepping stone and move on .
Your jealousy is showing. Don’t be like that. You do you and let others do them. If it’s not motivational for you move on.
Billybong is right!
Use it to make a change!
Stepping to what is the question
Did you form an LLC and should Drivers form an LLC as an independent contractor?
In Australia, we can’t see any trip information up front. Place marker on the map for pickup (no street address) and Uber’s inaccurate estimate of how far away it is. And rider’s star rating. That’s it. No trip details, no price details.
So I assume almost every strategy described is impossible for us to use?
25:00 sums it up for negative drivers that it’s essential to learn how to LEVERAGE your time and Uber platform to have financial success…in other words “Be Strategic”
A question is like addressed is it seems to me that banks probably don’t want to give car loans to ppl who don’t have jobs and I’m guessing that they do not think Uber is having a real job. I’m in Canada. Can someone speak on that? Thx 😀
Simple strategy like me part timer driving in Chicago getting two or three good pay trips and go home because you don’t get better from Uber
A lot of my trips are blind accepts because I usually take another while a current rider is in the car. Do you recommend not doing that?
@SergioSMTMC thanks. Just started this year. Just found your channel!
@SergioSMTMC where is that option?
I’m in the same boat as him. I rarely drive Uber anymore. No premier in my city. Rather do lux and lux black instead.

Full of cops looking to write tickets for anything and 2 Dean Martin Dr becomes a one way streets so it takes 15 minutes plus gas ~4 bucks a gallon. Im was born at night but not last night. Used to make 120.0 for 4?hours now I make 65.00 to 70.00 and $20.00 of that hours to gas. I start working for Amazon next week, don’t think I’ll drive for Lyft anymore.
This one was the turning point for me and I want to share what happened to me with a rider a few days ago
How many hours a day is he working and how many days to hit $2,000?
I can pull $1000-12000 working 30 hours for uber. That's DFW market. I've been thinking about pushing myself to see what it would take (hours) to break 2k, but...not sure the extra hours/miles/gas are worth it.
I'm already putting 800 miles on my car a week.
Consider your car a sunk cost. Cost of doing business. Say goodbye to it b/c of the added mileage.
That’s what taxis do.

I am a new driver, I don't see the "upfront Fares ", only the pick up location. Uber Support says I can only see upfront fares when I get promoted to gold status. is that true for everyone else or just in my city?
Yes, that is true. I didn’t see the upfront fares until I reached gold status.

Don't forget ...tesla modle y is a xl abd if it's black it's in black in lyft...it's eligble for all rides..
Like the video, at this time drivers need to do something else to bring in other sources of income. Continue doing uber and lyft but don’t depend on uber and lyft as your main source of income. Position yourself to take the rides the pays the most. Its hard to make a decision to take the rides or not within few second. If you missed so what. Wait for the next one.
17:30 exactly Uber can't compete if they don't value drivers with higher cost and higher value vehicles. Lyft has lux and lux black without having a business and registering the car commercially.

Not much real incentives in my city anymore like it used to be 2 years ago.Hardly any surges worthwhile taking.This mostly depends on city you drive and times or events.
Its difficult to make money now when incentives are trimmed down to a minimum and desperate drivers accepting all garbage apps throwing at them, apps are not pressured to raise the offers.
At the end, Kyle didn’t say shit
Yeah I was waiting what is the magic but never said nothing that everybody knows
Is chasing a ride bonus worth it? Is there a good metric to use? Here, they have a 60 dollar bonus for 30 rides, one of the best ones they've had in a while.
It's all smoke and mirrors. Chasing bonuses isn't necessarily a good idea because they'll send you bad ride requests with high miles and low fares. I've found it best to turn off the app during every ride, then turn back on after dropping off the pax. Then decline, decline, decline until a solid ride request comes through. Low miles with higher dollar amount and compare with how long and where the trip will take me. Will it take me to someplace where there is more rides or will I sit empty for long periods of time without ANY ride requests. Or, will I have a long deadhead back to a busy area.
is the app different and different states? I keep saying people talking about not taking low paying fares but the app doesn't even show me what the fare is going to pay until after I'm finished with it. in North Carolina.
How can I be “killing it” when Uber gets a 60% of the fair?? Please tell me HOW??..enough of this baloney please!!
How do you juggle being picky with what rides to take and not have it affect your acceptance rate.
Acceptance rate does not matter
I really don’t care about my acceptance rate no more. Just add your minutes to the mile to see if it’s worth it … make your decision then
You have to think about it. Do you actually use the 'benetfits" of uber gold, pro etc. Thats the only thing you lose when your acceptance drops.. Most of us dont even use those features like online school tuition and prioty airport rides. If youre interested in making more money, be picky eith your rides. They will not kickk you off the app. Alot of us already are at 10-40 percent acceptance. But we've made more money than those with 90 percent acceptance.
Acceptance rate doesn't matter whatsoever. Mine is currently 7%. If you're trying to keep your acceptance rate high then you're falling for Uber's scam, hurting yourself and all other drivers.
@@brandontibbetts4214 This is a lie.
In Georgia I sign up to do Lyft as a New Driver I’m live 5min From the UGA and this phone pings about 60 times a hour but here is the thing that got me it say it paying $4.50 including pick up pay to drive some one 9 miles but the pick them up would be like 7 miles then I get one like $19.01 to drive them 25 miles but the pick them up like 15 miles but the Lowest I seen so far was $2.01 to drive them 0.8 miles an pick up was 6 miles I haven’t pick anybody up
I drive 6+ days 70+ hours in San Diego. Avg $2,400 + LFGSD….no life but my kids can eat.
Only making like $100 a day but I’m only really doing it part time so how would you make a full-time income
Stop lying, the drivers spent a lot on daily expenses, gas, tolls, commercial insurance plus Uber cut prices for customers yet they take 50% from the fare. So what the heck are you talking about?
How is your model y an Uber lux? And do u have a CDL?
Problem I see work Lyft is I only make $4 on a ride that charges rider over $10. Not to mention over a half hour in traffic. Not a good system. And app is terrible.
He’s a smart guy and has a lot to teach. Thank you. However, all drivers need to realize that they are going to get in one more car accidents. Depending upon the vehicle, they’re driving this could cost them a lot of money if it’s a depreciating asset. Example you buy a brand new Camry hybrid for $40-$50,000 and it gets into an accident you’re gonna be out of pocket unless your rear ended and then it’s their fault.
Expensive car such as the one he drives unless it’s under warranty if something goes wrong he’s looking at two to $5000 out of pocket for a repair
He’s a smart guy. Listen to what he says, however, just remember you will get it it’s just a matter of when, and how badly. A dash cam and a good lawyer are 14:47 crucial
Also, a beautiful car such as the one he has is it gonna get destroyed unless you protect the seats and all areas where people can drag their feet keys are in the Hood a bag with huge metal letters that will scratch the heck out of your car on the way in and on the way out
Pictures or it never happened, each market is different, what works in one don't IN another.
That should be the new standard for these videos, show us proof or it never happened
Anytime you hear $2000 in a week. That applies to a max of 3 markets. LA - Chicago and maybe one other area.
Or you are just lazy and not as good businessman??? Just move to CA and in November when McD's is forced to pay $22 an hour you can say "Want salt on those fries sir?"
@@soliniv1411 Or just stop watching?
No surge no trip? What is this surge you speak of? I know they had it when I drove 6 years ago but having just started back last week, we've not had surge one.
My Question …
If you say no to the trips Uber send you does they can block the account? Cause I never dined but in my account shows if I denied 3 more it will block. How that works
Thank you Kyle and Sergio for the outstanding video! I learned a lot...thank you so very much for sharing the very helpful information gentlemen.
I have been in this business for 10 years. You don't make that money driving Uber X. He is driving 7 days a week working both Uber and Lyft. The max on each platform is 70 hours. These drivers are getting less than 4- 6 hours of sleep a night. They are running on fumes, they're a danger to themselves, their passengers, and the public.
You got all of that from this video???? Do you know tonight's Powerball numbers?? Please share
I know many people who earn well on Uber X you can believe what you want though.
The driver in the video is driving Uber comfort/select in LA. He drives a Tesla. The average Uber driver is X. The earning for X are about half of Uber comfort.
Dam
I made $1000 a week 6 days a week 12 hr day in Texas not it down so I had to go back on the rd as a truck driver and rent a car keep hafe of that
How many miles a week from doorstep to doorstep ?
@therideshareguy
Is Lux still an option on Lyft? I heard a lot has changed since November 2023. I live in Orlando and worked 71 hours one week and only made $1500 gross. I was driving only on the Uber app with my 2023 Lexus ES350 which qualifies for comfort, but you don’t get many comfort requests working from 8 pm - 8 am.
Take into fact the cost of your Tesla that you're going run it into the ground.
Batteryy replacement at 200k miles can sometimes mechanically total a model s
@SergioSMTMC he has a good strategy then ,respect
@SergioSMTMC There went 6 month of income.
The upfront premium one pays to buy an EV buys thousands of dollars ìn gasoline and when the battery dies the replacement is more then putting a new engine is a gas car.. its a farce
Uber and lyft if you do full time its good becuse you get more points and it means better rides...as part time not much to earn
Awesome interview!
4:20 working smarter not harder
If someone say they make 3k a week I call it bs. You don’t have that much time with traffic.
Nice to see that there is someone out there that does not accept trash.
@SergioSMTMC because of you guys I quit taking garbage.
How can he say he has no maintenance costs??? Doesn't his car need tires? Car washes? Recharging fees? Teslas aren't free to operate.
This guy's story was very relatable thank you for sharing
Was he doing Lyft also ? As a newbie there. He maybe doesn’t know. With that car. He can do Lyft lux and black in la. I don’t think Uber has those options for him there
in seattle or maybe its because im new but you cant see what kind of fair your getting till after the ride
The upfront fare cut is the new predator on driver's...we need to learn to say no
Shout my friends Kyle and Sergio!!
