Mehh. The old Nissans that are true compact trucks are awesome. I had a 98 with a 5 speed manual and got 30mpg. It would pull a small boat and had a good size bed.
I like the old full size trucks but I don't want a yearly fuel cost that exceeds the value of the truck lol

I have literally never seen this. Generally it’s a Nissan Altima that’s delivering.

They work at a dealership and use their demo in their off time to stack tailgate money for the fall.

No idea as I've not used food delivery for at least 8-10 years. Rarely eat out anyway, like a few times a year or on vacation.
Back when I may have had pizza delivered it was some poor looking dude in a 20 yo Pontiac Sunfire with no clear coat.
But then I don't understand much about the current immediate gratification culture.

You mean temporary tags. Dealer plates are special license plates that are issued to auto dealers and their employees to be used on dealership owned units
No actually.
I mean they still had the plate on the front and rear advertising the dealer they bought it from.
Temp tags are to be placed in the window in Louisiana. Which is why the stick on strips are on the face of the tag.

Sorry. My butler bought the contracts for your area as his side hustle. I think he hired his butler and his butler’s family to work the deliveries and gave them a fleet of new automobiles to work in. I can tell him to tone it down next time we get together.

They do it to make extra money.
Sometimes people are just doing that to pay for a vacation or get something they want. It’s not their actual occupation

Imagine how sad you gotta be to pocket watch your Uber driver. Get help OP.

People drive Uber for different reasons.
Dude I know is a retired attorney who worked his whole career for the FTC who does Uber Eats twenty or so hours a week. He doesn’t need the money, he says he enjoys it driving around listening to his classical music, which his wife hates. He says he gives all his Uber Eats income to his grand daughter for spending money while she goes to LSU.
He drives a few year old Honda CRV.

Uber and their like count on their drivers not understanding how much it truly costs to operate their cars.

How the frick else am I gonna pay that $800 note?
On a modestly equipped 8 series with $10k down, good credit and 72m term you are going to be twice that. You would need around $60k down to get to $800.
