    So many issues here…

    Call? I’d pay $2 to use the Uber app. Way easier IMO.

    How many people in your town actually take taxi within city limits? Is this a thing where people need another option? If people like and know the other guy, is $2 every few months worth trying someone new out?

    A discount ride in a “premium” vehicle makes no sense. Charge extra and green-wash it. Then maybe offer a discount if you need to attract business. Charge $20 and offer it for $10 to new customers.

    Also, if you’re particularly young, in a “fast” car, people may be suspicious of your safety and driving ability. It’s stereotypes, but there’s a reason insurance charges more for <25yo men. This doubly applies if you haven’t been background checked, don’t have a commercial license, don’t have liability insurance, etc that a “real” yellow cab or Uber will have.
