Sonata takes over crown status soon..lols
Such exhorbit rental prices are not new, govt and taxi companies
know that typically, Singapore cabbies sooner or later will get use
to it, it is like when introducing sonata that time, people all
grumble here and there, comparing it with crown and others, now,
history repeating itself.
This paradigm shift to higher rental with higher flagdown fare
reflect a high inflation comospolitan country we are becoming, it
is a sign of further disparity between the rich and poor in this
society, and that can be harmful in a long run.
The govt policy on their budget report of wanting to curb
inflation have till date, failed miserably, the two main motivators
of high inflation, Car and housing are still at all time high and
moving higher.
The key for cabbies is therefore, start to get use to it
I drive a newer Sonata weekday (now coming to 6 months), very
smooth, consumption also ok. Maybe my hirer and me never tekan the
vehicle. My weekend Sonata coming to 2 years but feels like old
car.
