Looking for travellers preferred method of transportation from the western suburbs to ORD (and MDW). I live in Winfield, near Roosevelt and Winfield Rd, if I drive, I take County Farm north to North ave to 83 north to Irving Parkeast to Mannheim north (40 minutes). But with parking costs for extended trips, I usually take a taxi, American Taxi. The cost keeps creeping up and now it's $39-$41 w/o a tip for one-way. I'm about one mile from the Metra, I know I can take the Metra downtown then the El back out, but the length of the trip makes it not to appealing.

Any suggestions for getting from Winfield/Wheaton/Naperville to ORD besides driving? Is there a better priced taxi service than American Taxi? thanks!
