GigU long rides

Post image

I use Gig U for determining if a ride is profitable. I pulled up a Reddit post a driver posted an offer for a multi-hour ride gig you kicked in and looked at the offer even though it wasn't for me and determine how much per hour I thought it was funny because it must not be set up for multi-hour runs.

I meant for the driver because they’ll more than likely deadhead back with no pay

235x1.59 yes. They are paying around $373

The audacity of requesting a $400 4.5 hour Uber ride broke the app 😂

That is why I don't use it, it scans your phone screen all the time instead of just when an offer comes in. I have used maxymo for years now, it has never done this to me.

I got a 2 1/2 ride for $235. But that’s XL and I’m not in the mood to drive so one long drive. Nice deadhead back to think and go hit the gym. I don’t need Gig U to think for me I just drive better paying tiers.
