I've used them a few times now and the novelty hasn't worn off yet.

When it does wear off I think I'll move back to alternatives that cost less, unless Waymo gets competitive on price.

Interesting, when I took Waymo, it was cheaper than Uber and Lyft, pre tip.

How much more does it cost to the alternatives?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Uber is quoting me about $15 for a journey that Waymo charged me $19 for.

There's a tip to add for the Uber ride. I'm not sure what the cost for Uber would have been when I took the Waymo.
