Taxis are very cheap. 4 km are 60Baht, 10 km are 100Baht just if  the taxi has to wait in traffic 1.5 Baht per minute are added. Make sure  that the taxi driver activate the taxi meter. Taximeter is always the  cheapest option. Do not negotiate with the driver. If he does not want  to use the taximeter get out and take the next taxi. Thais often first  the door of the taxi and ask the driver BEFORE they sit in if the taxi  driver wants to go where the guest wants to go. Doing this shows that  you know the right behaviour and in 99% of the cases the taxi driver  does not try to negotiate with the fare, he will operate by taxi meter  automatically. (Exception: in front of and around tourist destinations  they always try to discuss about fares => simply walk away a little  bit from the tourist destination and get a taxi out of the traffic.)
