Let me make one thing clear.
Rideshare drivers are BUSY people.
When we’re not busting our butts on the road for 8 – 12 hours per day, we’re spending time with our family, working on our businesses, furthering our education, and otherwise pursuing our dreams.
So as a driver, spending hours taking your car in to for maintenance or repairs can be a major pain.
“If I’m not working, then I need to be 100% focused on two things: My kids and building my education.” says David, a Los Angeles based rideshare driver. “I don’t have an extra 3-4 hours to hang out at a repair shop when I’m driving from 6:00am to 3:00pm, picking up the kids from school right at 3:30, then dropping them off with just enough time to make a 3-hour class at 5:00pm”
But like every rideshare driver, David has to keep up on routine maintenance and repairs on his vehicle in order to stay on the road.
Luckily for David, he found RepairSmith, a California based company that is changing the way rideshare drivers maintain and repair their vehicles by bringing the mechanics to the drivers!
In today’s post, we want to discuss how rideshare drivers like David are saving time and money by using RepairSmith.
