Uber is the household name. They've coined the ride sharing term "I'm Uber'ing". I say it even when I use Lyft. Kind of like Kleenex.

That being said, every single driver I've spoke with prefers driving for Lyft.

I think they'll both be around for a long time.

While Uber has the lead overall, Lyft s definitely carving out niche space in the healthcare world. I’m seeing it firsthand and there will be networks of transportation for couriers for patients getting medical care.

Seems most drivers are running for both around here. They tell me many customers do the same. They check price on each and select accordingly,

Lyft hit here first. I used them, so they often send me discounts. Kinda stick with them because of that. Uber probably is the first in most markets and gets that same connection to the customers there.

Maybe buy both when available. Sort of like Sirius and XM. Great idea, but who will win? Bet on both and wait for the merge,
