For me i've decided to be a relief for the moment. Have found a Smrt Merc hirer near my hse.He charge me $55 from 4.30pm to 6am....Mon - Sat,but have to wash b4 handover.
Will wait for any other gd offers along the way b4 becoming a hirer again
Teolk, that's a good deal. So you will fxxking dress up your attire for Merc and carry those kaki motorola walkie talkie?

SMRT Merc ..... hahahahaha , their strategies same with Crown la , hahahahah.
But i think the Merc Hirers do have regular corporate jobs ... like $30 per trip .

ya smrt merc is also crap stuff,but I took up the offer since my $1k deposit already with them
wat i like is I just need to cross a bridge reach my place liao..so even i return taxi early also no problem
wow now felt the burden lesser alot,$55 not $93 lol
just like running soc without sbo,helmet & M16,can fly
my only worry is pax may avoid flagging a merc
Originally posted by ALN:wow teo… u confirm lao gui…. $62 5pm to 5am can bargain to $55 430pm to 6am…. sunday off some more….. knn…. solid deal….

there will be pax that dun like Merc , it's a fact Teo .
Those old Merc drivers already tarnished the image of the Merc . Can't be help .
Also they dun flag u maybe becos of Nets , not the price or Merc .
I face the same problem , it's ok , this one dun take , still will be next one , not everyone dun take .
But i swear to you , like Wish , midnight damn wo hua , from backside Q can get one fast trip .
It's something Crown will never ever enjoy .

Rental $55 .... to comapre to Sonata of some $52 , good deal , but meter $0.20 extra , already cover up .
Merc fuel consumption is lower compared to Crown and Sonata , belief me .

66-yr-old ? Wow , u can only drive for him a few years nia .....
Teo , u mean u never really wash ur taxi regularly ?
U will enjoy it ... i love my taxi to be really clean , my taxi dustless , smell-less ( dettolised ) ..... even tyres i brush gilat gilat . No brake stains for the covers .
For $4 , car wash can do a good job .
U will even enjoy more if ur pax compliment ur taxi , smell nice and really clean .
Put little bit Pandan leafs help . not too many .
For a Merc ... i can guarantee you , it'll make money for you .
why ?
Example ....
Jurong East ....
2 taxis ...
One is Crown ...
The other is Merc ...
To Airport ...
5pm sharp ....
if no jam ...
Merc reach airport 5.30pm .
Crown maybe just hit Bedok ...
Crown take 40 minutes ... Merc take 30 min , 10 minutes advantage .
What about 6 trips ? ( if per trip 10 minutes earlier )
One hour advantage !! U'll earn extra $25 average compare to Crown .
Got calculate before ?
Hi rotaryengine...I told them i dun wan to shake leg for 1 week to get the new wish and request for 1 taxi to drive first(on avaliability) my plate num is shd99x.Anyway just tried the wish for 2 days.poolman is right...there are pax that choose wish to take..I was at parkmall taxistand on mon evening peakhour.I was 3rd in the queue.1st citycab crown,2nd comfort sonata.then this 3 lady saw my taxi...hehe come straight to me and ask can we take ur taxi.haha jump queue which i never got it during my CROWN's day.Overall for this wish is reasonably good.Except no radio.But i ask to install on my new taxi when i collect on 31st.Engine damn smooth and quiet.very comfortable.Even though i tried to use the petrol for a few hour to test and yes of course cant compare wif diesel but still consider not that bad becos think this wish is quite fuel enconomical.I got a friend's father driving this wish(private car)oso tell me its petrol comsumption is low.Can consider...So far i am quite satisfied no regret.much much better than the crap smrt crown.

those yellow top WISH is own by comfort is it? (i tot i ask this already but cant see my post)
Originally posted by CM840_2009:those yellow top WISH is own by comfort is it? (i tot i ask this already but cant see my post)
Yellow-Top is private owned !! Not related to Comfort .
I know what u meant , yes , Comfort used to have a Yellow Top department , but 2 years ago , they started to spray their yellow top taxis into blue comfort ....
No more yellow top for comfort .
i was the hirer for Comfort's last 10 yellow top taxis , after that , they never come out with any more yellow top cab .
I was hirer of SHB-6243 ...... the last one is SHB-6249 .
After SHB-6249 , all is Merc Limo .
walan , if i Wish Hirer , i recommend Patrick and Zeemax become hirer , we'll all be $6000 richer ......
so if i want to become WISH hirer i can ask zeeman to recommend me? haha. can share the money hor?
