You chose the 6 seater option, hence price range is different.

Uber ride was also for XL.

I do agree price range can be different, but 20x difference is too much... i'm guessing this must be surge pricing, thus wanted to confirm it. though i'm kinda surprise as at that time, it wasn't rush hour and uber's price was reasonable

yes, i expect that would be a good windfall for the driver if i accepted the ride. if tourist didn't know any better, and they accepted, then the driver will rclxms.gif rclxms.gif rclxms.gif
