Pros

.. On the other hand it can resolve immediate cash problems, provide a source of self reliant income in your schedule and develops a passive income if your wise in your ⛽ mileage limits. Sitting down so many hours can cause pressure on your sit bone and stagnancy or lack of limb movement.. and you earn more with a 6 person SUV or luxury vehicle with high paying clients...

Cons

Rates started out good then went lower, really not making the $200 mark per 8hr shift for the am of unit of gas invested.... It take minimum 12.50$ per day to make half in a mid size SUV making it a 75$ approx per week to gas my vehicle making. It a 300$ investment in gas minimum. And reduction in mileage of the car. Safety can get better and verified better. Visual if the client should be mandatory.... Some passengers don't have a picture.....which is alarming especially at 🌃 night and even during the day. Beware of men that request vehicles with female names.... Not trustworthy.
