I know I'm late to this party, but I finally starting using Uber earlier this month when I was on vacation in Palm Beach. Verdict? LOVED IT.
Why the hell don't people gush about this app more? I don't know if I'd want to (or feel comfortable) using it in New York City, but on vacation it makes so much sense to use. Especially since cabs are so bloody expensive.
And maybe this is a dumb detail, but I love the fact that you can follow the car along on the app as its on its way to pick you up.
If you haven't tried it out yet, but you're curious - you can get a free ride if you use a coupon code that a friend refers you. (And since we're friends... you can use referral code: elizabethh1835 if you so please.)
