Florence to Radda and back

The mission: while in Florence, visit a friend in Radda for 4-6 hours on a upcoming Saturday afternoon/evening. The options (as I know them):

1) Rent a car. Looks like about 80 Euros w/ gas. I've never driven in Italy, but I have driven in Manhattan, so I'm not too timid, and I can drive a stick shift.

2) Taxi. Looks like it might be 200-220 Euros, RT. I'm concerned about the return trip. What if a pre-arranged taxi doesn't show up at 8 pm or so? Being stuck in Radda for the night would be a problem.

3) Bus. I've seen references to a bus that runs this route, but I don't have any information on it.

Does anyone with experience in Tuscany have any thoughts on this? Thanks in advance for your time.
