Hey Guys, i wanna see what y'all think about this.
Now i drive Black/SUV(BS) --- Lux/Lux SUV(LS)
from my point of view the demand for BS vs LS is staggering
i would say minimum for every 10 Uber rides i might get 1 Lyft
thats bare minimum.
more realistically i would say it's closer to 15-20 Uber Black/SUV rides for every Lux LuxSUV Ride.
In that market Uber crushes lyft.
==================================
For all u guys that drive UberX / XL / Select etc etc etc etc
At X level, Lyft has come a long way in the last year. A lot of passengers have switched over from Uber for moral reasons. There is definitely a lot more demand. I'd drive Lyft a lot more if their surge (PT) was more functional. But since it isnt, as a surg-only driver, my share of rides given on Lyft really hasn't increased proportionately.
I signed up for Lyft six months after starting Uber...so there is that. And, if I ever turned both on at same time...of course in L.A. there are way more Uber passengers, so you get the Uber trip and that takes one offline to receive any Lyft pings. Now however, Lyft assured their Massive loss with rolling out Taco Mode...so I only use Lyft when it benefits me. Like their DF at LAX. Otherwise it's Taco No Mode for me...
Plenty of regular Lyft (sometimes 100 pings, even 100 surge-only pings, to skip per hour lol), some XL lyft Plus (heats up when demand is actually hot), rare select Lyft Premier
you must be getting great surges --- or a ton of rides, which one?
i used to be all about XL, the demand is so high and it surges good often.
but i've probably only taken 2-3 XL / Plus in the past month.
Black and SUV are reliable enough.

Surge only....well ok surge only and 70 bucks of relocating on DFs
Oh and about 95% DFonly
But no thats not particularly amazing, its doable on x/lyft regular... if anything, the XL is keeping it lower cuz you gotta waste time being miserly about miles
It chases cops off (when they're trawling for DUI or undesirables....not so much if they're in ticket farming mode) and acts as a no-hassle parking pass at USC if you arent being a blatant pita/eyesore
