I left off time charges, as taxi's work differently though I suspect the taxi time charge would be more. I was surprised to see the fair would be similar to the non-surge price. I thought Uber was a lot cheaper. I then also noticed this was UberXL that charges more.
regular Uber would have been 78.39 for that ride rather then 125.08 so it would have been significantly cheaper then a cab even not including time charges for the cab.

These guys did everything possible to ring up the biggest uber tab possible. Conspiracy theorist time. They were a plant by the cab association.
