I meant 59 cents/mile is generous for estimating your Uber driving costs.

The AAA average includes pickup trucks, which hopefully you wouldn't be using for Uber.

Edmunds puts the TCO for 5 years (includes insurance and gas) for a Prius @15,000 miles/year at $30,600. That is 40.8 cents/mile. 59c is 45% higher.

(This assumes you start with a brand new Prius; you may optimize better as an Uber driver)
