1. A method comprising:
- determining, by a system comprising a processor, a location of a communication device positioned within a vehicle;
determining, by the system, based at least in part on the location of the communication device, whether the vehicle is at a specified location with respect to a target location;
polling, by the system, the communication device for identification data of the vehicle;
receiving, by the system, from the communication device, the identification data of the vehicle;
determining, by the system, based on the identification data of the vehicle received from the communication device, a type of a media system of the vehicle;
determining, by the system, a type of media file supported by the type of the media system of the vehicle; and
facilitating, by the system, in response to determining that the vehicle is at the specified location with respect to the target location, a delivery of media content, to the communication device for display on the media system, in a format corresponding to the type of media file supported by the type of the media system of the vehicle.

Abstract
A communication device is removable and operable within a vehicle and is in communication with a data network as the communication device travels in the vehicle. Vehicle identification data is obtained from the communication device, and a type of media file supported by a media system of the vehicle is determined based upon the vehicle identification data. Media content is obtained in a format corresponding to the determined type of media file. When the communication device is within a desired range of a target location, the media content is transmitted to the communication device for presentation on the media system of the vehicle.
