It can't be the quantity of conversation that matters. Drivers probably enjoy a quiet ride as much as passengers do.
More likely it's whether you kept them waiting, treated their car nice, how long the trip was, and how polite you were. These are things that will make a driver want you back as a customer.

While earning some extra money is doubtless part of it, a lot of drivers are retirees and one gets the impression that part of the reason they drive is to get out of the house and talk with people. They're always very polite. If I want to snooze or read or whatever, they quickly take the hint. But I certainly get drivers who clearly would like to chat, which I'm perfectly happy to do if I'm not groggy or have anything I need to work on.
