How to spot a Chrysler Cab.

When its late at night, nearing midnight, and you want to catch a cab, you'll need to know this...

Me and Oaks had a fabulous dinner at her folks last night. When we decided it was time to leave, it was already half past 11. The moment we were downstairs, I lit up a cig. Oaks needed to do the foo foo too and was getting a tad grumpy. We were waiting for a cab, at the bus stop when it was long decided that the 54 goes to marymount from bishan and not the other way around and that at 11.28pm, we've just missed the last bus by 7 minutes.

We saw the first cab, it was dark and we hesitated. We didn't want to flag it just in case....It was scary. You could only see the outline of the vehicle at night and there was no way....no way to tell what kinda cab it was. (I pity the dark blue comfort cabs) The next one came and we waited again... to our horror it was like one of the 4 horseman itself passing by, like death...It was a chrysler cab. We hugged each other in relief.

Now, Oaky brilliantly observed 2 points that differentiates a Chrysler cab from a dark blue comfort.

No.1- Observe the shape of the vehicle. The Chryslers are definitely chunkier.

And.... if for the life of you, you can't see shapes too well like me....

No.2- Chryslers, 4 front headlights, normal cabs 2.

I love the chrysler cabs...its so smooth and comfortable And quiet. I just dont feel like paying 15 bucks for a trip that would normally cost me 8. And we're not talking bout midnight charges here...
