    I would like to know if Car Rental is a good/profitable business. A friend of mine is asking me to participate on his new project which he won thru bidding. He wanted muna to include my ride in their car pool because nagkulang sya ng units.

    Take home for a month is around 15K, out na yung fee sa driver and gasoline (I hope kasi di ko pa natanong to), 6 days a week (possible 7 days), garahe sa bahay, and he guaranteed na hindi malalaspag ang sasakyan (I'm worried about this) since hatid sundo lang sa mga executives daw ang gagawin, definitely no long trips and the good thing is you can assign your own driver. Pero maintenance is still mine. Initial contract is for 2 months.

    Okay na kaya ito? Balak ko kasi, makipagpartner na sa kanya. Isa pang concern ko baka bawal ito since private car ang gagamitin. Your thoughts on this will be highly appreciated. Thanks.

    the key there is that you provide the driver. that's the only way you can make sure that your car gets taken care of. if you have to pay for the driver, medyo dehado ka, but if they pay for the gas and driver, it might be worth it. paano yung color coding? meron pa ba nun?

    masyado yatang lugi yan ah,

    6 days a week (24 hours a day)? meaning 24 days in a month na hindi mo magagamit yung car?

    Sa mga car rental, ang rental fee is range from 1.6K to 2.2K (depende sa ride) per day, what if kung may driver pa.

    In general, ang magshoshoulder ng fuel is yung renter.


    WeaponX, sent you PM.

    Thanks BBimer, Ltruck.

    Yung sa coding, pwedeng lumabas din pero syempre limited yung time. Bahala na yung client na mag-adjust ng schedule.

    .. upgrade mo yung insurance mo .. your vehicle will be considered for-hire .. kung yung insurance mo pang private use lang .. kung maaksidente yung ride mo .. pwede nila hindi i-honor yung claim mo ..

    Ganun ba? I'll check your PM. Thanks.

    By the way, kung Car Rental company ganon nga siguro yung rate. Take home na naman yung offer nya sa akin. The rest will be their share.

    Thanks Bro.

    I was thinking na fair lang kung maintenance sa akin. Sa casa, I spend between 2 to 4K+ every 5kms kung wala namang piyesang papalitan. Kung two months na contract, sure 25K na take home ko. Anyway, I'll ask him for a detailed information. Mention ko rin sa kanya yung rate ng friend mo. Mas maganda rin kasi na may comparison.

    By the way, aside from maintenance, di ko pala natanong kung may mangyari sa kotse like kung mabangga, makabangga, etc. Yung sa friend mo, ano ginagawa dito, aside dun sa ginagawa ng insurance? Driver of my choice din kasi ang magdadala.

    para sa akin lugi din nga ata yung 15K...kasi around 2K nga yung going rate ng rental cars ngayon without drivers pa ata yun. ikaw pa sa maintenance ng car mo..

    alam ko yes, specially pag talagang registered ang company and business mo sa mga regulatory bodies like SEC. pero kung isang sasakyan lang naman and you are planning to have it just rented for example sa mga expats or for out of town trips, i think no need for your plates to be changed. ang important nga lang dito is yung insurance mo dapat "super" comprehensive.

    ang question ko naman...

    pag car rentals ba dapat bang may franchise pa from LTFRB?
