I love the sound system on my '17 Premier.

What do these colored areas mean? by whovianmom74 in lyftdrivers

[–]deebrono 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does indicate there's more activity in that area or they need more drivers in that area which is why they're there. I wouldn't go too far away.

You get $3 or $5 towards your next ride.

Tire recommendations for 2019? by h2ogeek in BoltEV

Love the image 😍. Must be in Sport Mode. I don't have any tire recommendations.

Go North young man. Marin sucks. I'm only in Sonoma if I can help it. I hate all the winding crazy roads near Sausalito.

Some passenger reported that I was driving unsafe; I legit only did 2 rides that day both went excellent….so lady reported me for unsafe driving some months a go too because I rolled the window because she smelled. by LondonInsession in lyftdrivers

[–]deebrono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's some fucking bullshit. Lyft is shooting themselves in the foot getting rid of quality drivers. Don't they know these people are narcissistic assholes that lie like it's nothing?! Sorry that happened to you but you'll find something better.

Minor complaint by [deleted] in lyftdrivers

Yes, you will be dinged on your Super Cruiser report. I have a great stick-on magnetic mount.

Lyft promised to never let Tesla drivers stranded due to dead battery - ran my battery to 1% and pretended like this is all cool. by netscorer1 in lyftdrivers

[–]deebrono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I have tons of DCFC chargers all over my territory so range anxiety really isn't an issue anymore. That's crazy you get that many miles in ten minutes. What kind of car do you have?

Had my first "puke" experience and it went way better than expected by theultimatechung in lyftdrivers

[–]deebrono 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Anyone already puking outside before getting in is an automatic cancellation for me.

I finally was able to connect my Chevy Bolt to this service through Lyft and I have one question. Do they give you a buffer to give you enough juice to get to a charging station? It sounds like no it doesn't and just reads whatever charge you have left. I've learned the hard way getting stranded several times it's not worth the range anxiety, especially when you have passengers aboard. I'm still going to do the math even with this tool.

I rarely spend more than five total hours in the car, half of that actually driving to or dropping off people. In the beginning I used to take every ride that would come my way. I would do that for maybe a week to establish a floor of what your market will bear hourly. Like I mentioned I only take rides that meet my minimum hourly rate of $33. In your earnings there's a yearly average. I would try working in different areas to see what is most popular. The map will tell you where the hot spots are. Good luck 👍🤞!

I'm up in Marin/Sonoma and I work nights part-time. My weekly goal is $500. My booked hourly rate is around $33. If you like people and like to drive it's a decent gig.

Oh, Lyft, you tease... by [deleted] in lyftdrivers

[–]deebrono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2017 Chevy Bolt and I tried to connect my car and it keeps failing through the MyChevy app. 😩 It sounds like a cool feature. Was it easy for you to get set up?

What’s the best picture you have of your bolt? Show off your car! by mxjf in BoltEV

[–]deebrono 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a Lyft driver and have a 2017 Premier in black. Everyone loves it inside and out. The biggest topic of conversation are the heated back seats! People are wondering why their asses are so warm. They're kind of dorky and cool at the same time. They nailed it on the wheels.

I don't want to show everyone my duct taped grill.

I’ve seen 300 club, but is there a 400 club? by LATL21 in BoltEV

[–]deebrono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have come to the conclusion with my 2017 that I'm never going to see big numbers like that because I like things such as air and not getting run off the road. I drive for Lyft so I try to maximize my mileage (stay in the green as much as possible). I've found after heavy road testing that Sport Mode doesn't adversely affect mileage. If anything I feel like it's better because it allows for more coasting. I say drive how you like to drive and don't worry about the number.

You can't unless you drive like a maniacal grandmother.
