Carry a cheap wheelchair all the time and it's XL in my book.I own one of those vans for a family member. No way in hell I'd uber a 55,000 dollar van (base price of the van and the 25,000 dollar upfit) in to the ground for X rates. Since it's modified for a wheel chair it won't qualify for XL because it only seats 5 plus the wheel chair.
I do suspect the ADA will eventually bite uber in the ass. It's why taxi companies must have these types of van in their fleets. I forget the ratio but they are required to have one for every so many cabs.
I think they paid Houston $10,000 or something to have that put off. They have to be compliant within 2 years or something. Of course then it will be a new Mayor and who knows if Uber will even be around.I own one of those vans for a family member.

laws make that impossiable. DOT requires the chair meet their standards and be fitted to the person.. a cheap chair is not gonna work. The chair we bought for the van (and the person who requires it) was in the high 4 figures.Carry a cheap wheelchair all the time and it's XL in my book.
I'm going to buy a short bus and put it on assist. This way I can run multiple phones and do a bunch at one time. I multi task the short bus. That's how I will make it work for a profitHope you guys who signed up for UberAssist enjoy those long distance pings. Don't forget they pay the same as UberX.
Uber on!
Great timing the week after the Special Olympics ended BTW.

You will make more money with the new low rates because Uber said so because of demand and suchthe make it up on volume mentality![]()

Send Uber an email that you want to opt out of Assist unless they make it worthwhile. It's the only way they'll get the message.All day long. Not one ping was less than 20min. View attachment 11312
I'm really wondering, out of all those drivers they 'trained', what percentage actually drive consistently. Looks like 1% or less.Send Uber an email that you want to opt out of Assist unless they make it worthwhile. It's the only way they'll get the message.
