A tall slender TICO about 35yrs old with a GREY van. This Mope will cheat a newbie in a second.It took me a few times to learn but i never forget. He has been there quite a few years.

HeyChilimike go eat your research. "if you did just a little research" After 15 trips since 2003 i know my way around.

He is a standard DelRey driver that uses the Delrey parking lot. He will over charge the hell out of you if you will put up with it and argue and beg for more and more. I told him where i wanted to go to the south. On the way we stooped without consulting me to talk and flirt with his girl friend, about halfway up the mountain the road was blocked due to a wrecked bus. Tico,Ticas and a slew of little K*ds were walking down the mountain. One young Tica carrying a very new baby and sacks and baby stuff struggling to just walk down hill. i told him to give these people a ride. He ignored me and sped by them. I told him i wanted to stop and eat some tamales and he took us to a fancy Tico place and went to consult with someone out of sight. I had 2 tamales and he had a small bowl of carnitas and expected me to pay for it as welL. The bill was $35.00! I have no idea how much his cut was. When we got back after 1.5 hrs and with me buying him his lunch he still wanted $75.00! He got $50.00 and that was $25.00 too much and he begged and whined for more. I was on the company TAB and baby sitting a bunch of rich drunks and tired of their shit as well as his and thought i will get even with this piece of shit down the road. SO HERE I AM GETTING EVEN!. i paid the $50. Had it been my money he wouldn't have got shit and i would have been inside talking to Gabriel.

Overall the Del Rey drivers are a pretty good lot.

I thought you were talking about a ride from HDR to some other hotel. Why use those van guys for anything else?

I have trouble getting in and out of those low taxis, More leg room, up higher and can see better and they are bigger than a regular car in a accident.

From your OP......"It took me a few times to learn "

& yet it still took you a "few" (4? 5?) times to learn?? You don't learn very quickly do you?

Do you? Apparently so! Chili mike was only trying to help & you hammered him like a petulant little 4th grader! We all need to do a little "research" & you need to do a little growing up! What does the date that I joined have to do with you getting your feelings hurt because I called you out? This was a great thread until you started whining about research! Put your big boy pants on and quit whining when somebody give a helpful suggestion!

I WILL BE AT THE BLUE MARLIN 1/14/2016 in the afternoon. Be there punk i want a piece of you.[/quote]

What is this supposed to mean? Do you want to fist fight me? Are you going to kick my ass?

I'll tell what! Let's go ahead and agree that if you & I were to fist fight, you would kick my ass, mop the floor with my ass, stomp a mudhole in my ass & kick me up one side of the calle & down the other!!!

Whew, glad we got that over with!! Saved me an ass whipping!!

Now where were we? Oh yeah, quit whining & being so petulant when someone suggests doing a little research!

Take a deep breath & let your anger go...you'll eventually feel better & won't feel the need to kick everyones ass!!

Have a Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year!!
