Drive/taxi from PC to SD, costs?

Only other info on this is from 2004 where the price was around $100-120US. Has anyone taken a taxi on this route recently?
Have they put a new road in or anything to speed the journey up?
I've a friend willing to taxi me for $100US, seems fair enough at the moment.

Take it for a hundred, it is at least twice that price now.

that is quite a bargain, you are looking at a 2.5 hour drive at the very least!

$100.00 seems to reasonable due to the fact that I took a bus (4-hour ride) which cost $60.00 apiece one-way for two people if I remember correctly. On my way back to SD, a driver offered to drive us back for $200.00 US. I then was told that was too much to pay the driver. I returned to the bus, which was air conditioned and just as comfortable as the ride up.
