I have been driving Uber for the past 5 years and it's been OK, but having to use a rental car makes it very difficult to save any money to purchase my own vehicle. The rental costs me $33,800 per year; that, along with the other expenses such as around $400 a week in gas, leaves me with almost nothing at the end of the week.

I love driving Uber and have met a lot of wonderful people, and I don't want to stop, but I need my own vehicle. I am only trying to raise enough for a down payment for my dream car, which is an Infiniti QX80. With this vehicle, I would be able to upgrade to Uber Black and Black SUV, which pays a lot more.

Any and all help, no matter how little or much, would go a long way, and I would be eternally grateful. Having the QX80 would also help me move back to the only place that has ever felt like home, Los Angeles. I was born and raised in L.A., and my heart breaks every day I am not there. So please help if you can, and if not, please pass this on to anyone you know who can. Thank you.
