Anyone out there from NYC, or who goes to NYC often - trying to budget for a trip - can you give me an estimate?

It's a flat rate of 45 dollars not including tolls and tip.
Tolls are usually an additional 7 dollars
so you are looking at around 52 dollars before tip.

Fiorello LaGuardia Airport (LGA) [Details]
This is New York's second largest airport, serving more than 20 airlines to mostly domestic destinations, Canada, and the Caribbean. It is on the northern shore of Queens, directly across the East River, about 9 miles from midtown Manhattan.
Taxi
Metered fare; $16-$26 plus bridge and tunnel tolls and gratuity; 20-25 minutes to midtown Manhattan 212/NYC-TAXI, 212/676-1000. One fare covers all passengers. Accept taxi ride offers only from uniformed airport agents and only in yellow medallion taxis. Do not accept rides from people who approach you in the airport if you have not booked a private car service in advance. Tipping is not mandatory, but 15%-20% gratuity is expected.

The $45 flat fee is from JFK, NOT LaGuardia...
$40 would be a safe budget estimate, including tolls and a bit of traffic.

The flat rate is from JFK. I go to midtown between first and second and it's usually about $22 plus tolls. With tip I usually pay around $32. If you take the 59th st bridge you avoid the toll

$45. It's a flat-rate ride.
However, I have found this website useful in the past.
