I took Uber a half dozen times in the past couple days (on vacation). Since I'm very interested in the Uber vs. Lyft battle, I've been talking to all of the drivers. All of them except for one drive for both Uber X and Lyft, and none of them really care one way or the other about who wins. Only one had a pink mustache, and it was a little stuffed one on the dashboard, probably six inches wide; he also had an uber sticker. One expressed worry about Uber taking over and not having a competitor to hold its feet to the fire. The one who only drives for Uber is a new mother that just likes to get out and talk to people who aren't babies, and she gets paid to do so. To them, at least, the article is right. The services themselves are awesome, yet mostly indistinguishable. Interestingly enough, I'm 99% sure if I came here pre-Uber/Lyft I would just rent a car. I have a serious aversion to taxis, but Uber just takes the pain away. The drivers noted that tons of people have been saying that.
