Definitely the coolest! If I were there I would get a ride just for the ride! I truly admire the Amish folks. But I do find it a little odd that someone would be doing this, not exactly how they usually "act". Maybe different than what I am used to in Pennsylvania.

Amish man starts "Uber" ride service with his horse and buggy
COLON, Mich. — Anyone who has ever taken an Uber ride knows it's convenient and very popular so one man in St. Joseph County has found a way to make ride sharing more scenic.
Timothy Hochstedler calls it Amish Uber.
He is adding some horsepower to ride sharing. The newest taxi service in Colon has four wheels, four legs and good gas mileage.
Inside his horse and buggy, people share a ride and Hochstedler gets to share some stories. Everyone's happy.
"Uber is a cool thing, every single year something new comes in and Uber is hot right now, so we have the Amish Uber. We can deliver people to their front door steps," Hochstedler said.
So far, people are loving it.
"First time Ubering and we're riding in a buggy," said Steve Phelps, an Amish Uber rider.
Bruce Jordan and his grandkids took a ride after traveling from Grand Rapids.
"It was fascinating. It's not an activity you typically associate with the Amish," Jordan said.
