It's not so bad if you get a route that isn't oversaturated yet, but it's not a good investment with a brand new vehicle... ...had a friend who tried it, and even if you don't drive yourself, ang hirap!

Problem is, the government is helpless to limit franchises, and the JODAs don't police their ranks or limit their numbers... some places, you'll have three dozen jeepneys vying for just a dozen passengers... a real lose-lose situation.
