Is the payoff worth it if u drive a luxury vehicle , ie uber black driver? I'm talking in terms of gas, wear and tear on car, etc

Every ***** I know that's ever driven uber got a story to tell about some drunk female(s) they've picked up... I donut believe any of them tbh because the next thing out of their mouth is how they can make me $500-$1000 for signing up as a driver. I know it's a real thing to get that sign up bonus, but these ****** tryna sell it to me like a damn pyramid scheme lol.

There's no cash transactions, so that'd be stupid on their part.
Uber has their phone number and GPS coordinates.
I mean, it COULD happen but you'd have to get a really, really stupid criminal to try it. You're more likely to get robbed/shot just by taking public transportation.

Have you ever ridden in one? The backseat is pretty non-existent. It's a small car.

Eh I don't think Uber cares about how big the back seat is. I know it has 4 doors and is modern and I assume in good shape.

It was excluded on the NY car list so I didn't know if that would pertain to other areas as well. But I guess we're gucci

I got a 2 door so this wouldn't work out for me as a side hustle smh. They even got year requirements for whips. Is it that serious?

A 1999 is a lot more likely to break down, thus piss off the customer.

That was a serious question?? 
of COURSE there's year requirements. No one wants to get picked up in dusty Delta 88 or 95 Escort

I can't stand most Taxi drivers in New York, DC, Miami....
Atleast you don't have to worry about being racially profiled by self hating Hispanic/Carribean other blacks with Uber most the time.
These companies are just filled with absolutely rude disgruntled unprofessional horrible drivers.
Its about to be 2016 why haven't these huge big money taxi companies equipped thier vehicles with a basic cheap navigation unit by now??
Why are there still dumb *** taxi drivers asking you to pull up your navigation on your phone to help with the destination???
I don't give a damn about how little money you make and how your company treats you or how they do it in your native country of origin, you don't take that out on customers.You come to the US you need to learn US courtesies and most importantly of all customer service...after all this is YOUR JOB, and gratuity tips are earned depending on manners and you actually knowing your damn streets/navigation and not asking me directions on how to do your job.
Should be thankful to even have a job in the US fresh off the boat/plane.
I think that sums it up why I'm glad the people now have another choice of paid transportation besides these huge monopoly outdated Taxi services.
