First Hand Experience with Ford Hybrid Cabs in NYC
We've run across the first field report of someone who's ridden in one of the new Ford Escape Hybrid cabs currently crawling through New York City.
It comes from a self-titled blog, The Assimilated Negro, and is it hilarious:
-- Well it appears not only do the new hybrid taxis in NYC help the environment, they also pick up negroes. Hallelujah!
-- There are no partitions in these taxis, so you can smack the driver directly in the back of the head whenever he's going the wrong way.
-- The leg room is pretty tight. These will definitely hinder your late-night taxi-cab-confession lovemaking session.
-- In lieu of the partition there's a security camera. He didn't say, however, that there's anyone actively watching it. So you can still still shoot the cabdrivers instead of paying them on those extra long rides.
