<v Speaker 2>Is this a truck? Question.

0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:36.840
<v Speaker 3>I think it's overrated.

0:04:38.080 --> 0:04:41.600
<v Speaker 4>I'm a passenger princess, so I'm gonna say underrated.

0:04:42.200 --> 0:04:45.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna say underrated because I would think I would

0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:47.200

0:04:47.360 --> 0:04:50.520
