Your storytelling skills are BOMB! 😍 Subscribed.
Haley Nicole Thank youuu and welcome!
Could Munchkym literally be any more cute and likable? Seriously, stumbled across this channel when looking up Uber stuff and even knowing I decided not to drive I still subscribed to the channel and watch the vids because I love the positivity. Keep it up Munchkym!
Der Stiefel Haha well thank you! I’m glad you ended up sticking around! :)
Der Stiefel very smart don't drive for uber. Try out postmates dropoffs aren't far.
If you’re driving in New York City it’s also smart to fill up before you go in because there aren’t many gas stations and it’s really expensive!
RuleofFive Yeah, that makes sense!
Girl I love watching your videos! You are a hoot!
Uberin Arkansas Haha thank you!
Oh man, I know that drive :). Before we actually moved to Jerome, we used to drive up to Wendell at least twice a year to visit my grandpa. That drive along the 93 is pretty desolate. One year my dad and uncle hit a deer on that road in the middle of a snow storm (yes, to those not in the know, it does snow in Nevada - especially the Northern end of the state). The impact damaged the the radiator, so my uncle and father, who were both master mechanics and machinists, got the idea of packing snow in the radiator to get to the nearest town (which I think was Ely if I recall).
solanisrs Jerome, Idaho?? My dog is a rescue from there!
@@munchkym Yep, Jerome ID 😁.
solanisrs Nice!
I’m very happy that you and the other driver did not run out of gas I wish you all the very best
Thank you, you too!!
I'm glad I didn't get to that when I did a roadtrip through the Yukon in Canada several months ago. There are some parts where you go 200 plus miles with no gas station
Ryan Rigsby Yeah, that’s brutal haha
Munckim. When I went on a roadtrip to Yellowstone. I always filled on gas when I was half a tank plus I had extra gas on the red jugs. In the trunk. Better to be safe than sorry. ⛽
Yeah, this was an unusual situation because signs lied to us!
was this on the Wyoming side? Anytime I drive through Wyoming I will fill up almost anytime I see a gas station.
Thank you for sharing!
Al the Pal Yeah!
Adorable! So glad ur okay!
Carol Gonzalez Thanks!
I was coming back from Atlantic City and I was on empty on the New Jersey turnpike and it was three o'clock in the morning and the station pumps for some reason where closed until seven. They said the next station had working pumps but that was over 20 miles away and I had less then a gallon of gas and was not sure i would make it so I had to sit in my car until they opened up the pump.
Jeez, that sucks!!
I never go below half a tank even here in Los Angeles.
Michael Pare Yeah, it’s just safer!
Kym, you should write poems.
Thank you! I actually used to, but haven't in quite a while.
Very intense and "edge of the seat" story lol
Adam Lawrence Haha it was definitely stressful for me at the time!
Iraq, Yemen, North Yungas Road, Bolivia, known as the “Road of Death”, Commonwealth Avenue, Philippines, Taroko Gorge Road, Taiwan are much worse than Nevada.
Near Turret Point AZ, you have to turn off your AC or your car will over heat.
Next time take some video of your experience to accompany your narration.
Im sure your audience would love to see it.
Safe travels!
DVincentW I mean worst as in “boring as hell” haha
Perhaps I will! This one happened a few years ago, though, so I wasn’t making videos then.
I enjoy your videos very cool
Thank youu!
You couldn’t have picked a worse place to run out of gas, except maybe Alaska. 😳
Right?! haha
Amazing.......very talented girl
elpaso20111 Thanks!
I've done the same thing with a tour bus loaded with people.
By time I was able to get fuel, I was on vapors.
All of the gas stations that night on Interstate 4, heading to DISNEY in ORLANDO were closed, didn't have DIESEL, or I couldn't easily get to them from the highway due to heavy construction that night/morning.
I ended up finding a gas station in Orlando after I dropped my passengers off at DISNEY.
I ended up putting approximately 700 dollars of DIESEL FUEL into my motorcoach.
I should have filled up in GA, but I was tired from driving from VA. BEACH, with a RICHMOND VIRGINIA pick up, several long stops on the way down, and bad traffic, all eating away at my DOT HOURS OF SERVICE.
After spending the night in GA, I underestimated how far I could get with the fuel I had.
I enjoy your channel!
DRIVE SAFELY, AND WITH SKILL!🚍
UBER 757 Wow, that’s crazy!! That must have been so stressful to be worried about stranding all those people!
Thank you!
@@munchkym yeah, I was new when that happened back in the day.
Keep up the good work with your channel.
DRIVE SAFELY, AND WITH SKILL!🚍
UBER 757 Thanks!
Like... When it rains and stuff...
She made it YAY!!
Yes!!
Awesome videos keep up your great work. 😀👍🏻
Aaron Wiggins Thank you so much!
munchkym you've helped me so much in my journey with uber and I can't tell you how much I really appreciate you. So to you thank you. An hope the best for you and when I have extra money I will be sending some to your link.
Aaron Wiggins Aww, thank you, you’re so kind!
munchkym is there a way. I can send you some ideas on what I do that my riders really enjoy.
Aaron Wiggins Feel free to send me an email!
Ya that’s why I always check my gas app (GetUpside) so I know where the nearest stations are. I never let it get below 1/4 of a tank.
See I was at half when the signs said I didn't have long to go. Those liars! Haha. Now I don't get lower than half.
i heard a story about an uber driver in boston running out of gas on the freeway with a rider in it :P your story is not nearly as bad as that and is interesting---now you should have Twitch on and streamed it!!!
Joseph f Haha I’m probably not going to be doing any streaming in the middle of the desert :P
@@munchkym :) record and upload, oh-not any breaking bad stuff? Hahah joking
You probably already know this: you can get ad revenue from youtube after you get 4000 viewing hours and 1000 subscribers.
James Amburgey Thanks! Yeah, I’ve been on UA-cam since 2011 so I’m quite aware of the program.
Loved the video great story telling I like hearing stories like that also it made me laugh when you said hills have eyes pretty funny
Maximus Meridius Haha thank you!
Just subscribed ! (:
Aww, thank you and welcome!
I love your videos...I totally thought you had quit youtube. So glad you're back though.. :) By the way I ve been wanting to say that I hope your eyes have healed well from the surgery.
Michael Angelica I took 4 years away but it was never an intentional quitting, more lost the passion. But it’s back!
My eyes are doing great, thanks for asking!
Haha! 4 years is a long time so its no surprise I started missing you.. Im happy you found your passion again madam. Loved the story time...you should definitely do more.
Michael Angelica I will be! I actually have 3-4 lined up!
Yeah buddy! Im excited :)
Glad you made it safe
William Cordova Haha me too!
You look capable.
NecumNaTo What does that mean?
Thank you for making me laugh at this video I needed that I laughed so hard at this I cried
James Ruffalo Omg that makes me so happy 😂
Great story and I think it totally fits with your channel!
Thank you! Yeah, this is kind of almost rideshare related! Haha
What would you do in the situation while on an Uber or Lyft trip?
Maybe a video about Uber help/driver support
Any specifics about it? Like what its like?
@@munchkym Maybe how to? Im having a hard time being an Uber. And yeah that sounds good too
God Is Good All The Time dotorg Okay, thank you! I’ll put that as a potential topic in my list! Good luck!!
#1 one I have read that when your car gets to that 0 miles on the gas, you still have about 50 or so miles left. Second and not to sound like some creepy old man I keep coming back to watch your vids cause your just so damn cute.
pogiguy05 50 miles at 0?? There’s no way. But it also definitely depends on the car.
Also as long as you’re not being creepy, then it’s fine haha
Love your videos I got a trip to Nevada as well when I got there my app stoped because I could not work in that state kind of sucked i I thought I could but different laws
leon shu Thanks! Yeah, you can’t drive in places outside of your market.
Easter Egg: the dude taking out the trash way in the background :D
Hahahah he has no idea he's been immortalized forever in his act of housework.
She's so damn cool 😎
Charles Eddy Jr Haha thank you!
i was doing a drop off in the area the night of the October 1 route 91 Mandalay bay massacre im las Vegas last yr. yep shot fired, victims on my car etc... I picked up a girl involved in sex trafficking, I've had convicted felons in my car,
Horrible.
@@munchkym what have you dealt with ? what crisis? how would you handle a guy trying to grab you and you can't get tp your pepper spray
Chris Crawford Not really interested in discussing this. In fact, your insistence on it is extremely creepy.
@@munchkym have it your way! i wish you the best in your drives, i hope your being naive doesnt backfire, be blessed
My favorite part was when you said, "We're kunna gum back."
Haha we totally would have too!
Glad you made it back. Your very cute fyi.
Ray B Haha thanks
I think i would make it a mile before my car stalled and the only thing in the desert would be poisonous snakes lol Have you considered videos about different apps you use for Uber/Lyft to make life ez er?
Yea, they are called monster or indeed
I have but should look more seriously at that! I need to contact some other drivers to get input from them as well, for sure! I personally have 3-4 that I use, but there’s lots that could be on there!
Sherpa share is a great one for mileage and receipts for taxes. im still up in the air between Mystro and Maxymo
Michael Militano Yeah! I also like Everlance and MileIQ for tracking mileage.
I'm very glad you managed to avoid all those horror movies waiting to happen XD
Johnymous There were SO MANY.
Star Wars is not a horror movie... Courtesy of Mark Hamill.
God Is Good All The Time dotorg Uhhh what? No one said it was haha
You were so lucky !,I'm happy it was a happy ending! And i can give you an advise, when your tank is close to half,half or a little lower than half,fill it up before you go home. That way you're always ready to run any where. Pd,love your videos,i have to check it out your website,and last thing,why do you think the summer it's been so slow? I only drive pt and it's a small market (Lehigh valley,PA) and I'm making half of what i used to($) thanks,take care );^)>
J Ovan2 Thank you! Reason it’s slow depends on where you are. Maybe students are gone? Maybe students are there but driving so fewer rides to go around? Maybe people vacation other places?
@@munchkym thanks to you! Maybe it's a combination of everything that you mention!, i can't wait until school start back again,thanks again keep the good work );^)>
hey lady, have u ever faced major challenges with passengers
Depends on what you mean by challenges.
Munchkym i cant find your reply... Hopefully a youtube app update soon. What did you say?
I honestly... have no idea. UA-cam is weird. Haha
I’m scared to Uber because I think someone might try and claim I vomited in their car or something and I can’t afford to pay $250 for that.
Some passengers will record their rides just in case of this issue, but be sure to check whether your state is a one or two party consent state!
Heck it's related to your main topic. Just remind yourself to fill up before you reach 1/2 tank when driving. Never know when you might get a ping for a long ride that might put you in hours of traffic. :) ... oh and always carry a small can of gas on long trips through the unknown Nevada desert. ;-)
I said that in the video, actually! I always fill up at half now. This time I just had a little more than half and was trusting the dumb signs. Haha Keeping a can is very smart!
I have been pretend lng that half is empty for a long time.
Same! (This story is from a few years ago haha)
Ugh!!! Have too many stories like this myself including giving Uber rides. Glad your story has a happy ending 😄🔚
Haha I hope you didn't get stuck too many times!
Lol hills have eyes
RANDOM CAM That movie was scarring as a kid lol
Which market do you rideshare at? I’m in the Chicago market...crazy story btw lol
Geoki Yuen That’s so funny, I’m actually in Chicago right now! I drive/live in Boise.
👍
👍
Loved the video. You can definitely do videos that's not talking about Lyft or Uber!
Brian Young Thank you!! I am always a bit nervous people will be deterred but I still want to do both rideshare and not! It’s all about what I’m feeling inspired by.
it sounds like sweet millennial justice.
more bawling in your videos is delicious. so make sure you do more of them.
Chris Marcus You’re really weird.
Smart Car? Any reason why your driving that tiny car across the desert?
Just cause that's the car my friend owned at the time and it had good gas mileage!
Very good gas mileage for sure.
Hey I’m trying to use your referral code for Uber, but there requesting that I have your phone number and email. I found your email on your profile. Is it possible that I can get this from you? I’d greatly and appreciate it and not save your information nor share it with anyone! You can have my number if that makes you feel more comfortable, I’m in Florida. I love your videos and they have helped a lot!
Sorry I didn't see this until now! UA-cam marked it as spam! Email me at Munchkym@gmail.com and I'd be happy to help! :)
Do you have another job or you just do Lyft and Uber
I have another job as well!
Other than pronouncing NV wrong and 0.0% of gas implies that the vehicle is already completely out of gas, this was fun! But to never go below half a tank... it's said that you can never be too careful, but this proves that claim as false. Just wait until ICE vehicles are illegal to be driven on the roads. Before that, dealerships will 'soon' begin selling only all electric vehicles.
I pronounce Nevada the way my ex who grew up there told me to say it... And it was definitely 0.0%! That's what the car said! Haha
One living in NV doesn't mean they pronounce it correctly. I've always heard it pronounced the way you did in this video, as have I, until I found out it's not the correct way to pronounce it.
pronouncenames.com/pronounce/nevada
ua-cam.com/video/oXNKQW7QQFc/v-deo.html
0.0% ... I'd get that checked. A relative used to have a Mercury Sable that had the normal gas gauge as well as a digital readout that showed the number of miles left. When the gauge was on empty, the digital miles left was never 0. That's because when the gauge shows empty there's always still some gas left in the tank. It's like a leeway/bonus to get to a gas station.
That's funny you just made this video because I drove 3 Uber XL trips last night with less than 10% gas. LOLOLOLOL.
Your Personal Driver Oh lordy that is way too low! Haha
1:00 duh. call AAA. That's what us old people do. They bring you gas. What a concept. Best $60 I spend each year. I bet all you millennials who drive Ubers have no clue about it.
lostintime86 rude much? I bet you “older folk” don’t know what manners are.
Lol we know about AAA but also we were in the middle of the desert. Do you know how freaking long it would have taken them to get to us?
Amanda, I guess you young people don't know what "levity" is. Chill!!!
Do you have a bf? I'm intrested
g969lol cenidoza But I’m not.
hahaa
Oh dear...
