Austin Monthly magazine features
Scott Powell, independent contractor driver and owner of the "Land Yacht"

Austin Monthly magazine put the spotlight on Scott Powell, an independent contractor driver at Yellow Cab, in its December, 2008 issue.

Here is a clip from the article:

Stepping into the Land Yacht, Austin’s alternative taxi, you’re immediately bombarded by glowing black and neon lights, the booming sound system and the four screens staring back at you. You can’t help but mutter, “Cool.” Scott Powell, the face behind the Yacht, has been getting this reaction for years now. A self-described “geek,” he takes pleasure in offering his customers a multimedia cab experience complete with cartoons, music videos, stand-up comedy shows and, of course, karaoke. New Yorker columnist Hendrik Hertzberg called it “the best cab ride I’ve ever had.”

We congratulate Scott on his ever-increasing fame and popularity and on his success as an independent contractor driver at Yellow Cab! Below is the Austin Monthly photo of Scott with his "Land Yacht."
