TS , u might not know .....
Many still driving a Crown and Cedric not because of rental issues ....
Many more .
Mainly Automatic vehicle is very fast ... some oldies cannot tahan the pace , heart attack . They prefer something slow and easy like Cedric and Crown .
Some felt they need to drive a lower flag down fare sort of taxis , to avoid rejections . Cheap taxi will get more business mindset .
My friend is like that one ....
And some oldies , they really dun want to start to learn how to drive an auto car .
U'll never teach old dogs any new tricks .
That is why Premier bought some i30 ..... to replace the ageing Crown , instead of replacing them with another automatic taxis .
Heard TransCab also bringing some manual car like i30 ..... to accommodate those old driver's requests .
