[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Besides driving only during surge areas/times, picking up in crowded areas to be assured you aren't wasting time, what are other "hustles" you can share with us in terms of contributing to your success in this gig (making max $$)?  I get you are offsetting car maintenance as you've said, etc. but just curious on some of the other "skills" that you feel separate you from newbie drivers and even maybe experienced ones who also drive during surge times - do you feel that that is the key in max $$?

Love your thread :)  Thanks![/quote]

Nice try noob, go figure it out on your own, lol.  But here are some freebies:

Know the rules...you can't win the game if you don't know the rules.  
Never drive when tired or groggy as that only leads to mistakes and/or accidents...an hour-long nap does wonders.  
Know when to quit...a ride ends a half-mile from your house but you planned to drive another hour?  Log out and go home, because the next ride is likely going to take you out to BFE.  
Use the rider app to gain position on other drivers...closest to the pin gets the requests.
Take notice of cars with TNC tags around you and gain position on them also...once again, closest to the pin gets the requests.
Know the "best" way to go certain places...which is not always the fastest or the shortest.
ALWAYS use the HOV lanes on the 14th Street Bridge, especially on the weekends and late evening hours.
