if u start at Klang, tough time. If u start at KL area, still ok.

I treat it as part time, still manage to get RM25-30 net per hour, but once i thrown into place like Serdang, Cheras Mahkota or Ampang Ukay Heights, i need to pray hard to get a job out. Those outskirt area just have too much drivers or lesser demand. Even places like Sunway Subang has so many drivers even without the HG scheme.

For those who think coming July will be a good time because of flushing out part timers, please think twice after looking at Singapore situation.

u still can get RM25 above net per hour ?

normally what time u drive ?

i though nowadays many drivers ?

Drive part time still ok, glad that he manage to find another way rather than Grab.

I heard Grab going to announce the plan for upcoming regulation in next month or march. What i heard is they going to absorb the PSV cost with condition and discussing with puspakom inspection specially for Grab.

And one more thing is certain, your windscreen need to stick the same sticker like what Singapore did.

Strictly weekday 6-8pm, Friday normally drive until 9pm or earlier.

When move to off peak time like weekend whole day, at most can get RM15-25 net per hr, sometimes can go until RM10 per hr. So for me most of the time if I meet friend when there is free time in between, just drive and utilize, if not just rest at home better.

I agree. During peak hour UP & MP, can still average 3 trips per hour and nett RM30 per hour (already minus 20% incentive and already add in TBB).
But the main difference is now really like lembu. On AA no choice but to keep driving and try to complete each trip as fast as possible.

Last time HG, still can choose trip, and take sweet time. If short trip, will even call to locate where is the passenger. Passenger ask to wait, no problem. Go inside condo, no problem.
Now not anymore. Countdown 5 mins, pax no show mean cancel straight. Time is money.

Hello guys, I'm planning to buy a car to do GRAB with 30k+ budget cash, not sure I can do loan because I dont have credit record. Not working

Should I buy 2nd hand car or first hand car?
I see many thread recommend Bezza 1.3 for low fuel consumption and larger storage capacity, but my budget quite short on that. Do proton saga have similar fuel consumption as Bezza?

Do bezza 1.0 good for grab? Any other recommendation or tips please

Should be good. Bezza quite fuel save. But i'm not sure can get 30k as P2 car hard to reduce in resale value.

Btw you base in KV? If yes then might be worthwhile to do grab while waiting for job. Even better if you dont buy the car, rent from Grab so no need headache for service and other additional cost. That money can pun in bank FD or Unit trust and let it grow.

Everybody has the same thinking like u, nowadays to get gross RM300 require longer working hours, maybe 10-12 hrs or more? if u aren't ready to face the traffic jam, better don't dump money on it.

We'll see, I dont think gov will impose so much additional burden on the driver. Also I read some other thread that say Gojek might come for more competition. That might be a good news right

Just check mudah got few around 30k but 40k km millage. That kind of millage ok or not? Should I consider P1, really scared see P1 RV so low, that might infer lots of costly repair needed in the future.


Yeah I live in KV, getting passenger should not be a problem here. 30k+ put in FD return to little, only 1k per year sad.gif
Beside that my family car nearly 20 years is dying, if it really died than our family have no car to commute

You should rent a car and try for one month first.If you can bear the hardship then only proceed to buy a car for full time driving.If cannot tahan,money is still safe in FD

Experience it yourself
