Party of six? Lyft's got you, bro

Lyft's finally making its six-seater Plus service available everywhere it operates in the US, after months of initial testing in San Francisco. Even better, it now costs just 50 percent more than typical Lyft rides, instead of twice as much like when it launched in SF. As you've probably guessed, though, that lower price comes with a downside, one that will disappoint anyone expecting to ride in style. While those lucky San Franciscans can hail only souped-up, moustache-wearing Ford Explorers through Lyft Plus, the special service includes any kind of six-seater SUV or minivan in other locations. It's too bad you can't always get power outlets and Spotify Premium access with your ride, but a soccer mom's van is still better that your buddy's rickety jalopy, isn't it?
