I've only seen this particular delivery mission with one other member in the MC. This should be a two vehicle delivery. I find it amusing. Sell Product - Drugged Driving.

Well this may be my time to cosnider business purchases but there is an important question I wish to ask before I commit.
Since we can own one of each type of business I know we must do supply runs and sell stock for each business, I presume if I own one of each business type this will mean that there is always one business which needs your attention or a selling run and that events involving the business would start/stop when you finish one and LJT would then call for the next business?

I'd really plan on only running one business at a time while having any other businesses shut down down. Running multiple business really requires mulitple players in your motorcycle club, or much lower profit margins by paying for supplies.

Sensible but not how I want to work it, too much hassle to shut down and restart businesses each time I want to use them, far more of a challenge to me to have them all running and keep on top of them all whilst ensuring I get satisfactory results from them.

Drugged Driving with a Rat TruckThis undoes my assumption that Drugged Driving mission occur only when you have a multiple vehicle mission and another member in the club, this one should have been a single vehicle mission and no one else was in the club. I think the Drugged Driving sell missions are random and rare.

Not that many players noticed before since they seem to kill and destroy for just the joy of killing and destroying, but they seem to have hotfixed the problem of not getting any RP or GTA$ money when destroying MC Product recently. So now you get more than just hater points for taking out product. I always give put a small bounty on players that mess with my business, even if they try and not succeed.

Well tonight my businesses and CEO organisations will enter the public lobbies for the first time in a while. I am actually quite looking forward to seeing how this pans out, one of the reasons this game still appeals to me alot is I like to see what other players will try. One of the reasons I was really happy with CEO and MC work being added was to me it's a challenge like doing business/club activities in real life in that you put your money into something and in the case of business you run the risk of loosing money or making a profit, MC business side of it on similar lines. I know at present I am probably running at a loss on CEO/MC side of the game at the moment but the money aspect does not really bother me, it is the participation. Never thought I would say this but free roam work does actually make the game a bit more interesting but equally frustrating when you just want to see what's happening and others kill on sight but then that I susppose is why we have passive.

If you plan your deliveries right, where you have one player per delivey vehicle, you have plenty of time to take the long ways around and avoid confrontation. Most product destructions occurs because you give them the opportunity. I've always played in public lobbies, and viewed it as an exercise in survival and avoiding confrontation (until it is worth taking other players out for bounties, moving target, beast, ect.), since PvP is nothing but a huge waste of expensive ammo for no game reward. Really the only problem with crate/product work is the jets. While R* has compensated with overly buffed delivery vehicles, there's really not much you can do against determined jet attackers. At least with military helicopter attackers, you can stop, get out, and blow them away with a homing launcher unless they are highly skilled. Against jets, there some hope if you are in the city and can use large buildings for cover, but out in the open in Blaine county, it is usually all over. There really needs to be a more effective counter-measure against jets, and I think an expensive, effective, air-mercenary service from Merryweather might be a solution (like a no-fly zone, associates excepted, for a period of time around yourself), which would down the pilot and buy you some time before they got another jet. Usually, if there's jet griefers in the lobby, it is best just to go to a new session and let them play with just themselves. If you have a whole organization, doing a short race and voting to go back to freemode afterwards is the best way to keep the org/club intact.

My brother bought a meth lab (Breaking Bad effect) two days ago & got a a cool Million on his remote first delivery .... $1,095,000 to be exact. (Full inventory, with only Staff upgrade).
This 25% off businesses + 50% bonus cash on deliveries is really tempting me...

EDIT: I did the numbers again and he must've gotten that Special-Item-Like bonus.... Alongside the extra 50%. Its the only explanation i came up with ...

I discovered an issue with paying for supplies. If you leave GTA Online before the supplies arrive (in 10 minutes), they seem never to show up at all. I'm not sure if this also happens if you leave free mode for another game mode.
[Edit] When you play another game mode, the supplies do arrive, you just won't get notification. Just don't leave GTA online if you have a pending delivery of supplies.

Helped a guy sell his products tonight & made like 80k (40k from a coke sale).
Just my luck, his first sale involved driving 3 PostOp vans from Paleto Bay to Los Santos... My god the vans are slow as hell & I have a newfound hatred for Vinewood Hills.
We both took a van each & returned to Paleto in a Hydra. As for the 3rd van, he drove the van & I gave him a push in my Brickade. (pictures coming tomorrow) ... We made it with 2:23 minutes to spare.
The Lost ripped off his Meth load & I recovered it for him (I was closer).
His Counterfeit Cash & Meth were uneventful, Buzzards & Dodos respectively.
The lobby went to shit before he could sell the weed.
Stupid Lester wouldn't stop calling me! Man, he was really annoying, thank god I didn't fall for the temptation lol.

Yep, LJT is up for the most annoying award in GTA Online for me this year. I really wonder if it is possible to do those Post Op vans solo, I've already had one incomplete delivery due to it being a slow vehicle. One thing I've noticed though is I've not had any attacks yet and everywhere has product but I guess that will come.
