I don't even use Uber! Although the last time I took a cab around here was a bad idea. I will at some point start using Lyft. I'm never gonna do Uber. The last time I was in NYC though, I took cabs everywhere. My friend who lives in the West 50s (I slept on her sofa bed) has converted to Uber but after taking cabs with me for a weekend said she might go back to using cabs as she found them easier to deal with than she remembered.
