Only in Michigan Would You Have An "Amish Uber"

In the village of Colon, Michigan - mere miles from Stephanie McCoy's hometown of Centreville, there is no Uber service offered. But, in America, good ideas, like life (with apologies to Jeff Goldblum and Jurassic Park) - "finds a way". So, according to WWMT.com, an Amish gentleman, Timothy Hochstedler, decided it was time to introduce "Amish Uber". For $5, Timothy will give you a ride in his buggy, pulled by his horse, who, "loves people. He's a Morgan. A Morgan is a people's horse. They love giving you a kiss or whatever."

But don't try to get Timothy and his horse on the Uber app. He doesn't really work for Uber (how long until Uber has a problem with some poor Amish guy having some fun, huh?) and you'll just have to flag him down. Old school - with your hand.

Here's the story. Enjoy that slobbery horse kiss.
