    • Uber, Lyft Drivers, MUST READ!
Format: Paperback
I am a 3 year veteran driver for Uber and Lyft, and I only wish this book was out when I started driving. It gives a real understanding of what being a driver will be like, the up’s and downs, the do’s and don’ts. Its a great read, and since drivers are not given training to the Rideshare gig they refer to forums, social sites, groups, and peers. All of which are great! Even knowing the content myself from driving for years and reading Rideshareguy website since the begining, this book was very interesting to read. The order in which things are discussed in the book, the subject matter, and the books flow is SPOT ON! Good read for any driver in the Rideshare Gig. For new drivers it really should be required reading before jumping in. Tons of great information you need, and given to you before you start will help any new driver avoid many issues we face before they happen. Truly a MUST READ for the Rideshare business! ... show more

    • Great overview for new drivers
Format: Kindle
Just started driving Lyft this past week, and still trying to find the best times and places that work for me, but with a 2014 Accord hybrid getting 46 mpg it seems a no brainer and is a lot of fun. This book is well organized and I can see the value in the recommended apps, especially Stride Tax. My 2nd night driving, I actually picked up an employee of Stride at the airport and took him to his hotel downtown! Harry, Noah says hi...lol. Stride works great for logging all my miles and I drive looking for riders most anywhere I go now, if I have time to go out of my way. If I get someone on the way to the grocery store, I'll go get them and continue on my errands later (when I have the time... that way my miles are deductible...I am LOOKING for work!) Thanks Harry! ... show more

    • Essential for any new rideshare driver
Format: Paperback
Very comprehensive. Campbell offers expertise and common sense tips on making the most of Uber and Lyft. I read this cover to cover, highlighted it, made notes in the margins. I continue to review it. This has been exceptionally useful to me.

    • The "How to " of rideshare.
Format: Paperback
Good book. Gives an overview of driving rideshare and excellent tips everyone intrested in this topic. I'm now driving for Lyft. Gave me confidence so that first ride wasn't so intimidating. Could go a bit more in the topic of scammers and how to spot them. Thanx.

    • He goes into great detail on subjects like Uber Quest
Format: Paperback
Harry is the Godfather of the Ridesharing world--known him for a few years. And now Dara K is blowing him up on Twitter...what an ascent for this blogger! The book is filled with typical things you would want to know if you're just starting in rideshare. And then it goes on to advanced topics in driving and mobility. I appreciate Harry's generosity in mentioning other bloggers by name, and complimenting their work. He goes into great detail on subjects like Uber Quest, and even concludes with a thoughtful, reasoned analysis of how human and AV cars can coexist. Cant wait to see you on the bestsellers list. ... show more

    • OK
Format: Paperback
Definitely not "everything" you need to know, but what you need to know to get started. There is much more to ride-sharing than this book talks about but it is a good start.

    • Great book for the beginner ride share driver.
Format: Paperback
He covers all the common mistakes and gives great tips for newbies. He also goes into more detail for the not-so-newbies on ways to add to your income. He covers taxes, ratings, and just about any question you may have. Well written and easy to read.
