Hi all! Just starting to drive as a nite relief for about 1 mth. Toying with the idea to be a hirer with comfort. Heard about the new Sonata policy. Is it worth going for it?
No Cash incentives Need 1 year bond Need to wait for 3 mths
Or is it more logical to take Crown,
Got up to $1000 incentives. Just need to tahan for 6 mths? After that go for New Sonata? Waiting time only 2 weeks?
Bro, My suggestion is to get a bro here to intro you into comfort and get a crown that is new to 5 yrs old. In that case, very soon the crown will be scrape and a brand new sonata will be alotted to you at a much lower rental. Furthermore, you will still get your cash incentive and no bond....
Also the rental for the crown is much lower and you can get used to been a full time taxiuncle without the worry of a 1 yr bond, you just need 1 week notice to return the taxi if you don't like the life of a taxiuncle...
From 2006 to 2008 , i dunno , was given merit points by Cablink for hitting average 100 bookinga month .... Was call important to me that time , was , not now .
Give you a comparison ...
Sonata , friday night , my highest record 13 bookings , 4.30pm to 12am , $220 collection .
Wish ,. friday night , 0 booking , 4.30pm to 12am , my best $245
Wednesday night , for comfort , average anytime 6 calls a night , 12am $190 maximum collection .
Wish ? 0 call , 4.30am to 12am , i hit $230 collection last wednesday .
Take old crown if I were u bro callcabby, the oldest they got in the yard. Crown is a workhorse, easily maintain and repaired. Don worry abt going back to wksp for repair cos when the taxi in wksp, coy lose money and that's what they don't want. So take the incentives, enjoy the low rental, sonata is juz a few mths away bro. Good luck!
