The page claims that the sedan services are cheaper... let's verify that claim on a few rides:

2 mile luxor cab: $7.15 5 mile luxor cab: $13.90 10 mile luxor cab: $25.15 1 minute idling luxor cab: $0.45

2 mile yellow cab: $7.15 5 mile yellow cab: $13.90 10 mile yellow cab: $25.15 1 minute idling yellow cab: $0.45

2 mile ubercab: $17.80 5 mile ubercab: $32.50 10 mile ubercab: $57.00 1 minute idling ubercab: $1.25

I fail to see the expense the article implies.
