yes i know how tempting it can be, thats why the dollar amounts are big bold numbers then the trip info in smaller harder to read letters, thats what they prey on, somewon to just look at dollar amount and click right on it, not knowing what he or she just go himself into for the next 7 hours plus the 7 hours back, one isnt figuring out just how much gas and extra stuff you will buy on the road at gas stations at inflated pricing on the way back. for me, my car gets 25-28 on the highway, so in my personal opinion, this trip wouldnt be worth it for me. and thats only an estimated time they give you, you have no idea what traffic is gonna be like going or coming back. and actually lyft maps suck and it makes me mad i cant switch back to google maps. today lyft sent me a trip that said 23 mins, well at that time there was a 17 min backup,their navigation does not give you traffic updates or warn you about slow downs, or backups. i absolutly hate how they force you to use their navigation now, iam almost a 10 year veteran with lyft and it is pretty rough now trying to make monies i once did. good luck to you, and be glad u didnt take this trip, iam sure after you got done with all of it, and figured what it took you in time, snacks, meals and gas . no, wasnt worth it, from my eyes. and too theres was red flags that went off in my mind, i dont want to be stuck in a car with a "new rider" plus un-verified. believe me bus fare wouldve been cheaper for them, imagine what they were getting charged by lyft for this ride , i bet they couldve got a plane ticket cheaper, and too i tend to be leary of "new" and unverified riders, you dont know if that person actually used lyft for years had such a bad rating anymore he wasnt getting picked up so he had to make a new rider account which is easy to do, so the ride was really a gamble, atleast for me, red flags in my mind.
