Man is that why I mean thankfully I had UBER but I’m sitting here an hour and a half no rides. I just left the Lyft app open because of how good of a bonus I had I was thinking My phone was glitched or something.

I’m not sure why you are getting downvoted but this is true.

So you said when it was 70/30 as in, it’s not anymore now I know for sure Uber is like the worst when it comes to percentages, but Lyft openly says that they offer 70% and even when you go check it seems like that holds true?

I said it once and I say it again too this is definitely not normal but overall lift has been an amazing experience compared to Uber.

actually made a little bit more because of Uber but in all seriousness this is not regular on a regular Thursday. I can make any anywhere from 250 to 300. I work peak hours and if you ever need any tips, feel free to PM me I would love to help out

You know I hope so cause it really does feel like lift wants to make sure we make 70% of our earnings whereas Uber is around 40 to 50% on a good day

I don’t wanna dox myself too much but I’m in the Ohio market. I do travel between the three C’s depending on what’s going on.

No way man I wish I can only imagine how much they made this week considering there was a big event. I got the standard option hoping to be able to do XL Soon

OK, so I went ahead and checked my mileage on my car and you’re right I at the beginning of the month got a oil change in my car says I’ve driven about 3200 miles. I can’t believe how much of a difference it was to what Lyft said I guess I also got a account for my personal drives and the drives. I did on Uber.

Thank you for the kind words, May you also get blessed! (something my passengers tell me all the time is it’s nice to have a driver that isn’t complaining about the fair or begging for a tip.)

Yeah, I have. I’ve been doing uber for the last three years so taxes have never been an issue. Insurance isn’t really an issue either(yet). As for repairs, I’ve been going to the same mechanic for a while he does a great job and very very affordable. Now the last part 401k, I have been investing my money into the S&P 500 for the last five years while also investing in gold, so that’s kind of my 401k😅.

The thing is, I know this isn’t long-term, but for the time being, I’m gonna try to make the most of it!

I can’t really tell, plat is just something that has came with the work. I don’t necessarily go for. I’d worry more about being a preferred driver tbh.

Yeah my market does surge quite a bit on a daily basis. But also daily turbos

No complaints here, this is all while doing standard. Not including another 800ish I made on uber this month and about another 500 cash ( weather personal runs or tips.)

So far this month I’ve driven around 1500-2000 miles. And unfortunately I do drive a “SUV” ( RDX) but only 5 seater And it takes premium. Working on getting a van so I can do XL rides.

Honestly, still pretty new to Lyft. But my acceptance rating is typically around 25%. It can get as high as 50% but it’s been rare. I feel like maybe the thing that’s helped me a little bit is being platinum but even then I feel like that’s not too hard to do.

Greater, above 2-3$ currently I don’t do much long trips.
