Ever wondered what Jay Leno does for a living these days? We've heard the car aficionado recently took on a job at Uber. That may be a bit difficult to believe, so we dug deeper, and it turned out to be true.
Before you start planning on what you could chat about if he ever picks you up (should it be hot rods or muscle cars?), we have to explain this isn't your usual public transportation story.
While Leno did leave his Garage to chauffeur people around Los Angeles, he did it undercover, and it was all for the latest episode of his car show.
The comedian couldn't help himself and brought up the... Jay Leno subject. And while some of his passengers delivered expectedly pleasing answers, our favorite part was the one where a trio of hot girls receives a bit of a lesson from Leno.

It's nice to see the young, weird-haircut generation getting in contact with the old school values of our society. From deep within the back seat of Leno's Benz, a reasonable choice for a Uber guy, the girls get quite a surprise.
Oh, and if any of you ever wanted to know how Jay Leno would look behind the wheel of an extreme machine (pick any from his bonkers collection) with a shaved head, now is your chance to find out.
As you can expect, some of the passengers were more enthusiastic than others, so the adventure went to moments that saw people using their smartphones for extra info on Leno to episodes where people almost recognized him in spite of the disguise. And we have to admit, it was a pretty clever camouflage.
Now that the man has done his fieldwork, you'll be able to see the fruits of that labor on Wednesday, October 7 at 10P ET/PT on CNBC. Meanwhile, the car nut has released a teaser clip, which you can check out below.
In his quest to bring you the most impressive automotive creations, Andrei relies on learning as a superpower. There's quite a bit of room in the garage that is this aficionado's heart, so factory-condition classics and widebody contraptions with turbos poking through the hood can peacefully coexist.
