it depends entirely on the person. if i'm already going somewhere i would never expect anything in return if someone wanted to tag along, but if i'm going well out of my way to give someone a ride, i'll usually at least expect some gas money...
If its out of my way they should pay me in bud or gas cash, if I'm going that direction or its a close friend I'd just give them a lift.
I don't drive.so none is enough. Usually,I'll give cash towards gas if I need a ride.gas is expensive
I fuckin hate when people dont offer me money for gas. Then im like you are rude. So i just get fast food or something and im like i dont have money. Pay for this and we are good on gas. Then i feel rude. Its a vicious circle
I'm overly nice when it comes to this sort of thing, and I've gone 15-20 minutes out of my way in the past, without any expectations. course, I haven't had a car in about four years and I don't plan on getting one any time soon so I never give rides anymore.
going to have to go with underpants' answer.... all the sudden the free ride song popped into my head...
I gave this lady a ride from work one day because her boyfriend crashed her car and she needed a ride to where the car was at, I had no idea where this place was but I took her and then I was nice and picked up her boyfriend who wrecked the car and just left it where it was at, I had change in my backseat (which the guy took ) And so I take them to where the car was at and then they started to have a domestic dispute about it and I kept trying to ask how the hell do I get home.. Took me forever to find my way back home, but I am glad I did it though cause the whole incident was funny.. And then I gave this guy a ride home from my other job and had no idea where I was going or how to get home, that always seems to be my dilema.. And why am I telling this stuff I have no idea, just felt like it I guess... But when people offer to give me gas money I always refuse, never had someone offer me a piece of ass though...
I never give strangers rides. I saw a pregnant woman walking and drove right on past her. I live around some crazy meth lovin' rednecks....and she had that look about her. My friends rarely want to ride with me because I don't allow drugs in my car.
