I paid $25K for my 23 Hybrid. I just got an offer on it for $26,400, with 27,000 miles on it now. Since I bought a Ford Flex for rideshare, I really don't need the Maverick now. I'm very tempted. Of course I will keep/sell off most of the accessories I bought for it. What to do?

Absolutely time to sell. Why keep a vehicle you don't need?

I don't mean to come across as rude but they know their situation far more than we do. Obviously if they don't need the vehicle and they can actually make a profit on the sale they should do that. But if there's more to their situation that might make the decision less clear then they need to process that.

in Chicago can you really make more money driving the Flex than the Maverick hybrid? I would be pretty surprised about that given the differences in fuel cost. I guess the Maverick rear seat is pretty small and possibly the Flex might meet the criteria for Uber XL?

LSchicago,
Since you posed a question and you have posted it on the forum.
'What to do?'
You kind of went over what your situation was.
It seems, you are looking for a consensus.
If you can make more money than you paid selling your Maverick and you already have a vehicle that suits your needs.
Then SELL.
Good Luck with whatever choice you make.
Have a great weekend.

I did 2 XL rides this morning, out of 8 in 3.5 hours. Oddly, I have noticed it seems the offers are better driving the Flex. More higher paying reservation rides. Where I used to do $100 for 4 hours or so, it now is $120-$150 in 4 hours. It seems like the gas difference is well covered. I gained the higher paying XL rides, but lost the Lower (same as X class) Green rides. More of the XL riders tip too.

I honestly don't see the value going any higher, and I did put 27K miles on it. Maybe someone has the crystal ball. I don't.

ah, good point. that is not at all surprising.
One of the XL rides today was 2 women 11 minutes for $16 (including $5 tip), One was 1 woman to the airport 14 minutes $14 (No tip yet, but often times come later or next day). Yesterday was a single guy rider, $29 ride for 24 minutes, plus a $10 tip =$39. I wish they all could be XL's.

Kinda crazy people are still offering high prices as dealers now seem to have stock of both the EcoBoost and the hybrid models on lots.
It's the same thing with Toyota Sienna Hybrids too (the current ultimate rideshare vehicle). Very few available in lower trims though. That might be key.
