My last cab ride (~2 years ago) was in a snow storm and over 1.5 hour (~40 miles) to Pontiac, and it cost me ~$75. I don't think the price is much difference today.
The impression I have is that they don't run a meter, so its fixed price based on the region. Perhaps your destination was at the near end of an expensive region...
