Über is just black car service. 10x faster and nicer car.

Faster logistics.

1. Swipe über.
2. "Let's go" to girl
3. Walk outside car is there already. No fumbling around for a cab.

Anyone who does heavy night game will benefit from it.

How does this happen?

How is this any different from calling a driver you know?

Besides you don't have to download some app?

[WestCoast]

Yeah it's just an app. You pick out the car and just tell your location, takes 2 mins max.

If you have a go to guy that's on call for you then yeah no advantage or use.

Lets be honest here. A Z4 aint shit in NY, miami, LA, SD or SF.

Hell, even a lambo barely get a head-turn in those big cities.

The other day, my boys and I are having tea/coffee at coffee-bean and 2 lambos, 1 old vette, and a aston martin DB9 coupe in a line roll up. These dudes in there 40s hop out. The girls and all the dudes scope the cars out, but then when the drivers (mid 40s) emerge---its business as usual.

Nobody gives a flying f-ck.

3 200k+ cars, and a 100k car in a line pulling up= a sight to see.

A Z4 is bullshit.

That's because the new sports cars all look really boring. A 1979 Camaro, a 70's Corvette, or an 80's Lambo is going turn more heads because the designs are much more interesting and cool.

All the new cars look like fiberglass bubbles.

Whats the prices on uber?

I've heard it about double a cab's price?

Give me some personal experiences?

On yelp, they had a bunch of bad reviews like 60 dollars for a 1 mile cab ridge.[/align]

Not to hijack the thread but everyone is on a tangent anyway haha, but for you cats in NYC or those visiting use Uber.com. Great 'taxi' service but show up to your date in a black towncar instead of a taxi and for a great rate.

Don't they have it in SF too?

Have you used it?

What's the advantage?

The advantage is pure swagger.

The price is comparable to taxis and sometimes cheaper. For example for a ride from Sherman Oaks area to downtown Hollywood I've ridden for $40 one way. A taxi costs me around $60. Not to mention a taxi is being driven by a smelly asshole who bitches and drives like a pussy.

Yes, they have a very advanced app that takes a few minutes to set up (have to put in your credit card for on file which I'm not crazy about. I'm a cash guy).

I've never been to SF so I don't know but I know they cover LA and NYC.

Swag points + nicer car + comparable fare if not cheaper = no brainer for me. I only use it when I'm in NYC or too drunk to drive in LA etc.

[Christian McQueen]

Also, your first ride is FREE. Google 'Uber first ride promo'. That way you can check it out and see if it's something to utilize or not for yourself.

[WestCoast]

DVY in SF it's usually an extra 3-5 bucks. In NYC it's an extra 3-5 bucks as well. NYC just has cheap cab rates.

Basically what above wrote. It's mainly

How does it get there in 2 minutes max?

Do they have millions of cars on the service that are all 2 minutes from where you are?

What if I am in the Jordan Downs Projects at 4am in Watts? Still 2 minutes?

Hunters Point in SF? 2 minutes?

Seems unfeasible.

---
So is it cheaper or more expensive?

Lot of mixed info.

What do you guys mean "nicer car"?

Are these Lincoln Town Cars?

Or BMW Z4's?

[WestCoast]

2 minutes from main areas of town. No clue how long it would take in Podunk middle of who cares street.

There are basically a lot of them around and you just swipe one in, from my experience a few bucks more expensive than a cab in NYC/SF.

They are basically town cars.

Just take one out in Miami one day and see if it's any good, sure it won't hurt the bank to try once.

[theIVth]

Not really here to measure dicks, but I have a cousin that was in the league from like 95-07. And I went to high school and played ball with 2 guys that are brothers of one of the best RBs in the league as we speak. I've partied with these people and had table and bottle service. I think I have just a little insight.

I'm black, 29 yrs old and grew up in Houston TX on the black side of town. In my demographic and the circles i party and live in, money and bottle service and nice cars etc can only help you if you have any sense.

It's not like bitches are going to automatically trivialize drinking champagne and start paying more attention to all the regular mufu's in the club just to spite you. Seriously.

I'm not rich or famous but I've partied with men that are and I've been assumed to be rich since I was with them. I can extrapolate those experiences to come figure out that if I had my own Ferrari and millions in the bank, life would be a lot easier. Maybe not yours, but mine damn sure would.

If your lame without money then you'll be lame with money. Dudes that say that money doesn't help you get girls are more than likely just lame and are turning girls off because of it.

There's no way in hell that buying bottles in the club and having table service will not help you get girls. If you can buy bottles tonight, invite a bitch to the fight sitting close next weekend and then bring her back to your pad that's super laid, you'd have to be an idiot to not know how to keep a chick on your team and down with you. Especially if you getting your Panamera valet'd and she's waiting with you when they bring it around.

Seriously, women aren't just going left when you go right to be spiteful. If you can show a chick that you got it going on like that she can't help but to comply.

If bottle service was as effective as you promise, bottle rats wouldn't be a thing. Sounds like you're speculating, not speaking from experience. I know McQueen has a lot more experience with this. What little I've seen of bottle service, it's nowhere near a sure thing as you make it out to be.

This is really location dependent. Where I live a Miata or a Mustang is impressive. I go to a major city a few hours away and I see Hummers and Ferrari's parked every few blocks.

Cars are nice but guys are putting too much value in them. If you drive a nice car you better make sure you have a nice pad that compliments it.

SnakeEyes, i honestly consider you the worst poster on RVF. Each and every single one of your posts stinks of bragging, and has absolutely no substance. I can't say i found value in any word you ever said, and it's bugging me how it feels like i'm the only one that has this view. I read through the whole thread, and i see countless members noticing the same thing, that you don't actually give any tips or share any 'wisdom'. You're just telling stories of how much money you're making, how your car changed your life, and how many broads you fucked.

Don't waste time playing video games or at bars every night. Focus on anything that brings you money, status, or power.

Practicing game is a million times easier when you have the things women want. They will go out of their way to get your attention. I get free meals from women for my daughter and I at our favorite restaurant.

Money, status, power. Get any one of those and life changes.

U mad?

Haha lots f mad dudes in here. Bet these dudes haven't gotten laid in 2 months. They're probably more mad with a 28 year old havin a net worth of over $400k, pension, fee health care, abs, credentials, and a life. I'll see y'all on C-Span

Some serious mad up in here.

[Basil Ransom]

Every time guys talk about using their cars to get laid, I think of this (fast forward to 2:00):

The kind of girls I mack are more likely to think you're an overcompensating tool if you tried anything remotely like that.

The biggest flaw of of the 'pro-money' argument is that the kind of money they're citing would put you in the top 1-2% of earners - most people can't just up and decide they want to make that money. If it's out of reach, the whole argument is just mental masturbation.

There are multiple ways to attract women, but being top 1% in any one category is very hard - you can put in the required effort, but there's no assurance you'll get the desired result. There is the rare man who is average looking or even ugly, but is such a force of personality that he bangs hot girls on the regular. This is the kind of guy you meet and are just astounded by his charm.

Or there's the opposite, a mild-mannered man who is incredibly good looking, and bangs hot girls as well. Trying to reproduce the results of these outliers by aping them is fraught with failure, because their strongest suit is not easily reproduced. If you have the choice to make top 2% income, sure, give it a shot. If you're making a decent income already, it's not necessarily worth busting your ass for an additional 10% or 20%, instead of focusing on other pursuits.

The only thing you're missing here is the length of your dick, which I'm sure you would have posted if it was something to brag about.

What are you trying to prove dude? Why are you trying to impress a bunch of guys on an online player forum? Why are you insulting a group of people you don't even know?

Take a look at yourself, you brag like some bratty highschool kid with rich parents, you write like a dumb juicehead who just discovered the misc, and come off as a toolish, superficial, and ultimately boring dude. And to top if off, you're 28 and still doing this shit.

Don't know if he has posted his length but he posted his supposed girth here in some thread.

At this point I'm pretty much just laughing at this guy. The numbers don't add up and he's far from loaded anyway no matter what he claims.

Ah, take it for what it's worth. He is a kid making more than most kids his age. He should be proud of what he accomplished. Like most kids, they think they know everything but time will change that.
