oh hello used 991.1S competitor, this is very interesting and throws a whole new wrench in the works

Real astronauts drive Corvettes.

All these “get a real job” fucks are just pissed they are on year 17 of some shitty plant in bum fuck indiana and can already see their miserable ass futures ahead of them.

But on eBay, I can set my own price. On Uber/Lyft, I can’t.

That this comment isn't the most rec'd makes me feel like I'm being gaslighted. 

Great post. These comments are horrifying. The sheer vitriol of many people here is astounding, especially given how incredibly misinformed they are. This is a company which advertised itself as providing a full-time job–hence the class action suits in California, which Uber lost. Really despicable to see this kind of

That car is likely an “Uber Black” or “Uber Lux” which requires a livery/chauffeur license, and a luxury car.

Uber also gutted the black car for hire market, as well. 

This. This is the most logical comment of all.

Man, these comments are super disappointing - why are yall so adamant about sticking up for corporations? Are they paying you?

Let’s go over some things here:

1. Back in 2015, Uber and Lyft actually did pay a very nice wage. Remember all the fluff pieces backed by Uber and Lyft talking about drivers earning over 100K

Even Uber admits that driverless cars are many years away.

This is not sarcasm:

You make it sound like the drivers are working for a couple of hours a day and expect that to provide a living wage. They are probably driving 12 hours a day. Why would that be considered a side gig? Are taxi drivers, who also have the option, in theory, to only drive part-time, also doing side gigs? 

People drove taxis as a job. Stop blaming the poor and start blaming corporations.

Side gigs still pay employees minimum wage.... So while I don’t fully understand your point, I just want to clarify that these people do indeed have a job, they drive for Uber. They would just like this job to be treated like almost every other job. Only an idiot wouldn’t get that.

If people didn’t do this full-time, the platform would die, full stop. Rides would cost far more and service would be slower (or nonexistent) pretty much everywhere.

I would not be surprised if this was staged.

Perfectly aligned with the CCTV camera. China.

Don’t get caught up in the horsepower race, don’t buy in to the crusier big mythos. weight is the enemy. most bikes are ridiculously over powered. Buy a nice 500cc or below bike and learn how to ride. Sure your buddy on his Harley, or the guy on the GS1200 or the 1000RR will smoke you off the line and always have the

Repairs require test drives. It’s not like he dropped a thousand lbs of stone in the bed and scratched it up, nor was he abusing the vehicle, just operating it normally (tailgating aside, that’s certainly not ideal).

Aside from tailgating, I have to wonder if there’s really anything wrong here, on the condition that they needed to take it for a short test drive anyway.
