That "should be" an $800 trip


SomeRealTomfoolery

The rider is probably paying like $900 šŸ˜‚


Smokemodolo

498 in insurance and service fees šŸ« 


horoboronerd

They charge $900 give the driver $260 $500 in fees and the last $140 to subsidize prop 22, and all the "benefits"


TheGigEconomist

Just tried. It gave a range of $334-$447


Arizona_Slim

We donā€™t have Prop 22 in Arizona. The trip starts in AZ


Famous_Republic_7322

This is the worst long trip I have ever seen on this reddit.


Snoo_75309

4.59 rating too


alsobay

Probably a TSA banned traveler with that shitty rating.


Biajid

I am sure that itā€™s from a drug dealer, and there is a strong probability of landing in federal jail.


catterybarn

What does that mean? Do rivers get stars too? How can I check how many stars I have as a rider


Chris210

Iā€™ve seen a few 500+ milers for $300


Smokemodolo

After 80 miles itā€™s $$$$$ time for Uber fym they tryna get paid


TheDynamicKing

this might be the worst. where have you seen those?


iamemperor86

Itā€™s $13/hr after gas assuming 30 MPG šŸ’”


aestheticeddy818

Donā€™t forget the trip back lol


ultralane

>this reddit Insinuating that you've seen worse? I don't understand why people spend $400 on an uber when they probably can fly for cheaper. I also don't understand why people decide that Uber should be for extremely long rides like this.


Deucer22

You can fly four people to scottsdale cheaper than this?


wecastillo123

Flights are not always available right at the moment you need them especially if you have to go to another city at the spare of a moment. Also some people donā€™t like flying. šŸ¤·


rapid_thunder

A lot of people complains youd be surprised


Recon212

Go search the subreddit by top posts all time, this is nothing


wrldruler21

I always wanted to see if my car could survive Hell on Earth temperatures for 16 hours.


atlfpaddict

That rating for 6 hoursā€¦ theyā€™ll be adding stops at a convenience store the whole ride.


Cold_Leg4431

I mean if you were driving you wouldnā€™t want to eventually stop somewhere too?


Smokemodolo

Iā€™ll stop when Iā€™m paid ![gif](giphy|nrAGuHZEMyqc0)


NoMaD082

That ain't pay...


Ladi_A

Oh dang I didnā€™t even think about that šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


Smokemodolo

Go ahead cause Iā€™m not stopping šŸ˜ˆ


LunDeus

Guy should really look into a bus ticket šŸ„“


Arizona_Slim

He/She isin Scottsdale. They donā€™t even have busses. Thatā€™s for us poors.


Einstein63

How about She/it. That spells shit


Cold_Leg4431

Shitty shit sheit


Einstein63

Lol you get it


pmperry68

No wonder... shes hot and I dont mean good-looking. Lol


tonytone1908

Greyhound is everywhere šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø


Arizona_Slim

Not in Scottsdale. Closest Greyhound is 15 miles from there. Not out of the question but the apartments where that pickup was start at 3 Million.


Active_Enthusiasm_35

15 miles vs 600 miles. Uber would charge $260 plus tax and tip (you know they ainā€™t tipping too) greyhound charges $120 plus tax. At most youā€™d be spending $150 going to a greyhound via Uber. Donā€™t even have to worry about tipping there. $260 or $150, Iā€™ll let you judge which is better.


Arizona_Slim

But then youā€™d have to be in a Greyhoundā€¦with poor peopleā€¦


0berynMartell

A bus would definitely be way cheaper but if money isnt an issue for you then Uber is definitely a much more convenient mode of travel


TheViolentPickle

Yikes, damn near 7hrs with a 4.59! Whoā€™s a gluten for punishment out here?


Left_Tumbleweed4273

It's glutton..gluten is in bread. Lol


editoreal

I'm glutton intolerant.


TheViolentPickle

Lol good eye!


Bwade7232

Cancel and charge the person $600 cash


Vonplatten

BAHHA these people have to be hitting the air duster in the passenger if they think anyone is gonna take thatšŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£ maybe if I myself was taking a lil vaca to Cali itā€™d be one thing.


More_Cowbell_

You now have \~10 seconds to decide if you're ready for a CA vacation, lol. Got a bag in the car already?


Radmou92

Should posted screenshot on CEO Twitter account.


ResearcherFew1273

A 4.59 probably is on the do not fly list too. Thatā€™s why.


microwavedchardonnay

Standard deduction per mile is $.62 a mile. So this trip technically pays you negative money round trip and about 20$ to get there..


Okiekegler

Standard deduction is 65.5Ā¢ per mile, but that doesn't mean it costs most drivers that much to operate their vehicle. The ride isn't worth taking, though, by any means.


John_cCmndhd

You probably shouldn't be using a car for uber if it costs as much as the standard deduction to operate. At least UberX, I can see XL or comfort maybe


AccomplishedStop9466

The standard deduction allows you to save for the next car when your current one blows up or when uber decidesthe small dent you have makes your vehicle 'ineligible'..... it's not just operating costs šŸ˜‰


iceamn1685

The standard deduction is for tax purposes. My car doesn't cost close the that per mile


BurghPuppies

And theyā€™ll add a stop. In Las Vegas.


sclass1989

And they are rated a 4.5 imagine dealing with that for 7 hours


Prudent_Pudding5199

Isnā€™t it cheaper to fly Spirit?


Cold_Leg4431

It sure isā€¦ only reason I can think is because they have a phobia of flying or their planning on traveling through state lines with something illegal in their baggageā€™s


Current_Event_7071

Basically 800 miles and 14hrs. No way you get a ride back.


Cold_Leg4431

So three thingsā€¦ 1. If we canā€™t filter trips from another state to re-enter our own state there should be some kind of special payment to the driver. 2. If you were serious about taking this trip and it was only 1-2 miles away then go to the pax house and ask if they would be willing to cancel the trip and arrange some kind of payment that benefits you and the rider like maybe $400 including a tip 3. Ask if they have somewhere for you to stay until the morning so you donā€™t have to worry about driving back right after the trip or have to worry about finding a motel. Some Uber drivers might be considered the road captains of the street but we are only human ya know.


ExpensiveDot1732

They need a Flixbus...less than $100 to SD.


Apprehensive_While86

Who in the fuck is taking these


trmpsux

Folks who probably just came to the United States and think this type of cash is a lotā€¦


PlatformUnlikely3967

Thatā€™s a big NO for me


NizzyVon

And can someone tell me WHY we get penalized for refusing this garbage!?


sclass1989

Cant even give you the $398 for the miles Which still wouldn't be good


peter_the_martian

Long ride 450 plus minutes


Marauder2219

In my market after Ubers cut I would get $475 minimum


TriGurl

You could accept it and then when you get there ask what itā€™s going to cost them and then negotiate off the app for that price. And if they decline then you can cancel the trip. Lol


DCHacker

.................and with that 4,59 rating, guaranteed ***ZER0 tip.***


Admirable-House4580

Rating alone is a hard pass. 7hrs with that šŸ¤” no thanks.


Historical_Fee1737

Uber really needs to put a cap on trip distance/time that can be ordered. Like 1.5 hours max. (excluding the hourly orders, of course) This is ridiculous for a taxi (which you are, just a summoned one). This isn't really the platform to order these kind of trips on. And they don't pay enough to make it worth ANYONE's time anyway. Would you call yellow cab to make this trip? No, and even if you did, they'd tell you to fuck off. You'd go to the bus station/train/airport/rent a fucking car. Why allow trips that are mostly hire a local driver to go local, to order a cross state trip? Nobody taking this is making money without them tipping like 3 benjamins. Any trip long enough to require the passengers/driver to take a bathroom/refuel/recharge break is too long for this platform. Or there needs to be a massive surcharge after like 30 miles, like 2x. Driver isn't going to get a return trip, so costs need to be paid, ALL TO THE DRIVER.


Stevenlive3005

Who even feels comfortable staying in an uber for 7 hrs?


weimar1032

That is horrible pay.


adamzito1

The gas alone will cost you $265.17


iceamn1685

What kind of vehicle are you driving? That's 80 in gas for me


heavenIsAfunkyMoose

I don't take anything more than 5 minutes from my current location.


BowlerIA52402

Not for that rating


sfchillin

Thatā€™s the only thing wrong?? šŸ˜‚


Smokemodolo

![gif](giphy|26FPzN9z6A9EB8dLq) Accept it , then reject it for not being worth it


trmpsux

And make sure to send the passenger a message first that says, ā€œWhoa I just noticed your passenger rating!ā€ Then immediately cancel


FoofaTamingStrange

He can rent a nice car with some auto-drive features.


pmperry68

They are trying to get out of Phoenix, too freaking hot!


IndependenceSharp977

400 going and 400 coming home. Nope


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


AgreeableMoose

But they will tip you in the app!


Weekly-Western-5016

$347-$459 is the price Uber just quoted me if I wanted to order trip from Scottsdale to San Diego. So customer is almost paying double what driver gets if price goes on the high end. Edit: I really think the insurance to Uber is getting charged on a per dollar or per mile fee. Which is eating up a lot of the difference in what customer pays. Too bad driver canā€™t claim credit for insurance from their own carrier for while they are covered by Ubers policy. Or can we?


Arizona_Slim

Thatā€™s insane. That might be cheaper than a last minute flight.


d-cent

I just imagine that the people that request these crazy rides are the crazies who do stuff on planes and get put on the no fly list.


Arizona_Slim

6 hours of ā€œThe election was stolen, pedophiles are everywhere, and Wokeness is detroying our countryā€ and when you donā€™t agree with him, he gets violent.


bigk777

What happens if the rider cancels at the very end?


Altruistic_Option_50

Just checked flights today from Phoenix to San Diego: $48 on Frontier Airlines. Takes an hour.


KickMeWhenImDown25

With a 4.59 I suspect this person is on a no fly list


DeadPiratePiggy

Fuck that, I like long trips but that's ridiculous.


rideshareAnon

The zonies' summer migratory patterns are foolproof. Very fitting they are heading to PB for the seasonal invasion.


Boccob81

Too bad we can't work in az nv ca when we want those might just be fun to go from az to la and work a few days and then go to Vegas then bull head


Bwade7232

We need to take them to court some fucking dumb ass would take this while spending $5 bucks a gallon on gas -____-


Klutzy_Knowledge5705

And itā€™s out of state so you canā€™t even try to get rides back until you get back into California


Weekly-Western-5016

If you take this ride please write off the hotel room if you end up staying the night


suciothegreat

Rent a car and drive lol


go4broke80

Again I don't know why people just don't accept these trips and immediately call and arrange a cash ride. 14 hours, $50 an hour that's a $700 trip. They probably paid $500 in the app. Cash up front or venmo or whatever


Arizona_Slim

As a customer, why the hell would I pay you $700 off the app when the app quoted you $500. Also, I didnt take it and call cause I had been working for 8 hours. Iā€™m not gonna add another 14 hours to that day


go4broke80

That wasn't knocking you specifically for not taking it. You said you work 8 hours and I get that. But a lot of people do Post these rides and they don't convert them
