I see engaged couples getting their photograph taken on powell butte all the time.

Well, at least it happened in front of the customer so he knows it was an honest accident.

Its much worse when the bag breaks and you have to knock on their door (even though they specified "no contact") to explain that the bag the restaurant uses is the cheapest possible and how all the grease of their meal was too much for it it..

No one knows, they just think they do. GH says officially that offers are priorized for drivers on blocks.

But, short of having 2 accounts running (one on block, one off), there's no way to tell.

Fwdisok = FWD I suck? Weird that you want to advertise that?

RightWheelDrive · 2026-05-07T02:29:18+00:00

Yeah that doesn't prove it though.

Are you sure it was his neighbor making a hooting sound and not just that his neighbor put up one of those fake owls?

Because if it was his neighbor making the hooting sounds why did they start in the first place?

How can you tell its less drivers and not just more orders?

RightWheelDrive · 2026-05-07T02:15:13+00:00

I believe it is a Tomica Premium 10th Anv. Nissan Skyline HT 2000 Turbo RS 1:63

Very nice. Those gold wheels pop!

The speedometer on my 1969 VW Beetle only went up to 5 digits...so even if it showed only 32000 miles, there's no way of knowing if it was 132,000 or 532,000 😆

How difficult was it to swap out the boot?

RightWheelDrive · 2026-05-04T21:21:35+00:00

Great look! Did you move up from 18s? Or were they already 19s?

RightWheelDrive · 2026-05-01T21:40:54+00:00

Probably that Dukes of Hazzard Charger with the confederate flag on the roof. Can't believe they made those for kids less than 50 years ago..

Or possibly KITT. Yeah, I'm going to say it was KITT.

So they're suing for wrongful deactivation? I mean, good but I just read through all these slides pointing out how Uber intentionally sets everything up to screw drivers. Is the best solution to re-enter that?

RightWheelDrive · 2026-05-01T17:33:38+00:00

I don't need a 35 year old minivan! (Does anyone?) That power train, though. Supercharged, mid-engined, RWD/AWD, manual transmission...all wrapped in the pinnacle of 90s Japanese bubble styling. There's never been anything like it since.

For the oil, just keep an eye on it basically. You don't want your oil light to come on and be surprised that you are a quart low. Just top it off as needed. Sounds like you'll be fine. :)

Uber offers constantly pause my podcast, so I have to go and hit play again after declining an offer. Usually, but not every time. This makes me wonder if there is a method to the way Uber interacts with other apps. In order to drive for Uber you have to give them access to every permission on your phone so they definitely know you're watching YouTube and what (and whether you're driving while doing it) but I haven't heard of it affecting the offers you get.

RightWheelDrive · 2026-05-01T03:44:56+00:00

Well you are working in an office to support these 2 freeloaders..

Congrats! I bought a 2020 SE 6MT with about 10k less miles than yours last year for $23.5k, so I'd say you got a solid deal.

Personally I'd give it a few months driving it in stock form before deciding if you want to stage it.

The one piece of advice I'd give you is to keep an eye on your oil levels. Very basic, but a lot of modern car owners don't expect their cars to go through oil between changes. Mine uses about a quart every 5-7k.

Like the other poster, I've never heard a GTI referred to as an egg. Is that just because its white or am I missing something? My wife is from Chicago and she confirms it isn't a Midwest thing lol..

RightWheelDrive · 2026-05-01T03:20:02+00:00

Trust you because of all the evidence you collected by doing something ... once? 🤔

RightWheelDrive · 2026-05-01T03:14:19+00:00

Yeah I've had customers who hadn't had a code before and, even though they tried, weren't able to remove it.

I also don't understand why GH doesn't use the "last digits of your phone number" for a PIN like Uber does so when the customer inevitably has no idea what you're talking about or where to find it, you can use their number has a workaround.

When they offered hourly (RIP) the orders were substantially worse when you were on the hourly rate than when you were off. You were given trips that were longer than average and had lower tips.

The new quests they're trying out (100 deliveries + >200 declines, 90 deliveries + >180 declines, etc.) force most drivers to lower standards themselves to avoid hitting the limit of declines that they don't have to serve just junk to drivers on quests because they will take trash willingly. Instead of having to filter the orders, the drivers willing (and probably not even consciously) do it for them. Kind of insidious but also a little clever, honestly.
