In this vlog, I'm cruising through Miami in my Aunt Rosa's 2014 CRV, savoring the last few rides before my surgery on Wednesday. With the Tesla gone, I find myself reminiscing about the ease of driving it, while embracing the quirks of the CRV. The rain adds an extra layer of chaos, making every trip an adventure.

Throughout the day, I encounter friendly riders and reflect on the strange comfort of driving a humble car compared to a flashy Tesla. The difference in how passengers perceive me in the CRV versus the Tesla is striking, and it’s a reminder of the unique experiences that come with Uber driving.

I dive into some nostalgic thoughts about electric shavers, the invention of the year (if only Elon Musk would invent one), and the weird comfort of a lower-expectation Uber X ride. Plus, there’s a hilarious mix-up with a passenger named Duke who turns out to be Luke, adding to the day’s unpredictability.

As the day winds down, I contemplate the future of my YouTube channel, the possibility of a viral video posthumously, and the consistent failure that seems to be the secret sauce to my content. It’s a mix of humor, frustration, and heartfelt moments as I gear up for the next chapter.
