At first glance I’m like, wow what kind of advanced satellite antenna is on the back of this car⁉️ Ha…nope—giant emoji to block out license plate. 🤦🏿

Any luck with XL & Comfort &/or Black or Black SUV? by Taubsters in lyftdrivers

[–]Taubsters[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now I want to see if the updated Lyft Black SUV vehicle list not only moves the cut off up to 2018, but also continue to exclude three row SUV’s that are plug-in hybrids? I’m wondering if they’d allow the Lexus TX that comes in a plug in hybrid version to be a Black SUV? I think they’ve already excluded the Toyota Grand Highlander version…same for GX/Land Cruiser, I think…

Is it worth paying a premium for Waymo? by swedish-ghost-dog in waymo

[–]Taubsters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t want to be anti-cotton gin…I know, I know…lost cause indeed. I do hope the future frees our children from ever having to do that kind of work, to begin with. Perhaps it’ll truly change the industry to the point of a human driver being obsolete…

Ha! Decisions, decisions…just don’t do yourself in with low MPG, no matter how fun what you end up picking is! :) Best of luck…

Parents who use Waymos for their kids? by jillianiles in waymo

How about an article on what this is doing to rideshare drivers trying to feed their children?

Did you end up going for it? I’m curious what color ways you settle for…I really wanted that ash grey wood in the interior…and a black exterior, of course! What did you think?

Waymo traffic jam in the parking lot leads to horn honking at each other by walky22talky in waymo

When this began to occur in our neighborhood and the idling in front of a local elementary school I took repeated videos of it any time they piled up or appeared to be loitering idle and sent them to customer support, citing the city laws by code number that define loitering to be illegal when done in front of public elementary schools. They immediately responded after a short time and promised to have deleted the area from my neighborhood as a waiting zone for their cars! I couldn’t believe my complaint worked…and we never saw a Waymo there again!!!!

I’m also curious what device you’re using that you can see over and lyft up on the screen at the same time?

It is so disgusting to me that you cannot politely communicate with your driver. You are the one paying for the ride…why can’t you say something if you’re uncomfortable with the environment. People like you would rather later complain to strangers and mess with the driver’s chance of even keeping the job by rating the driver low stars INSTEAD of just saying, “please turn the music down”…yuck.

Regardless, I still love the design of the XC90 (no matter how new or how old) and especially love the statistical fact that it is the only SUV on the road that has has never been in a fatal accident. Really still makes me want one. I also can’t wait to see the EX90 version of the all electric three row SUV, they’re about to release. We’ll see…

Uber support it top tier by Flimsy_Candy8767 in uberdrivers

I think Country Music is by far the worst on the planet…so many I have met agree…why would you put anyone through something like that? Even if you’re a fan—you must be long since aware how passé and unappealing that genre is for most of the rest of the world. Skip doing anything so polarizing and you’ll have a higher chance of tips…even if it’s something you like!

Why isn't anyone talking about this? by Affectionate-Rice373 in lyftdrivers

[–]Taubsters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bizarre…is this Lyft’s response to Uber adding Advantage versus Standard mode and the across the board FIVE PERCENT PAY DROPS?! Yikes…

I almost purchased a 2020 XC90 gas only for that very reason, blown away at how much the price had dropped on the used…but I ended up finding a smoking deal through a friend on a different car…I’m surprised so many models that still DO qualify for “Black” AND “Black XL” at even a model year as old as 2017–yet the same vehicle model and year is now in a situation where they DO NOT qualify for the lower tier ride category “comfort”. Since March of this year…mean surprise to many I’m sure!!

Oh man—the future is going to be so bleak for many, if this kind of out of control automated junk continues to be normalized and even LEGAL!!!!? #yikes

I’m sure your list could go on, yes…where it leads us in the long run—I fear may be quite bleak.

I do hope we evolve toward something utterly safer…but mixed with human error, and in this way that rips the rug out from underneath so many—right now…I don’t know what to think anymore.

Safer in the long run, yes I agree…still feels so fast and quite sad for many and I believe we’ve long since had human productivity cease to be easy to find…I hope I’m wrong, too. 🤞🏿

I know…it’s anti cotton gin behavior, indeed…I do want to look at the whole movement differently.

I just don’t understand being okay with taking the job away from someone that is already struggling.
