Q: What's your name, and where are we today?
A: My name is Pablo. We are on 53rd and Broadway in Times Square, New York City.
Q: Is business the main use for your car?
A: I wish it was pleasure, but I'm here on business.
Q: Can you please tell me the specs of your car?
A: Mileage is 78,000 miles and it's a black Lincoln Town Car, 2009.
Q: Where do you live?
A: I live in 11379 in Queens.
Q: If you could go anywhere on a day trip, where would you go?
A: In the summer, I'd definitely go to the beach. In the winter, I'd go to the malls and visit friends.
Q: What's the furthest that you have driven someone?
A: Woooh. I once drove someone to Boston, Massachussets.
Q: How much did that cost?
A: Over six hundred dollars!
Q: Are their any rules for people who ride in your car?
A: No special rules. Just no smoking. I like my car to smell nice all the time.
Q: What kind of music do you like to listen to in your car?
A: I love to listen to salsa and merengue.
Q: If your car could talk, what would it say?
A: It would say, "Give me a break," because we work 12-13 hours everyday. So my car says, "Come on. Give me a break."
Q: If you could have any car, what would it be?
A: YI would love to have an SUV, but they're not cheap and you spend a lot of money on gas. But I love SUV's because you feel huge when you drive them. You feel strong. Like you are bigger than everyone else on the road.
