It seems that Chrysler corporation has come up with a new option on their Pacifica mini van....

A built in vacuum cleaner.

I mean I could think of a few other things to spend R&D money on, and in order of priority:

1) Seatbelts that are not as much a risk to the wearer as not wearing them.
While admittedly, seat belts save lives, I have also seen injuries due to seat belts that clearly indicate there are some design flaws, everything from multiple fractures of a wearers collar bone and a fractured sternum to lungs bruised so bad they bleed.

2) Dome lights that do not cause night blindness

3) A back seat driver ejection seat

4) drink holders that will hold any size drink cup without the risk of dumping them when taking a sharp turn at any speed.

5) Collision avoidance sensors based on something besides reflected light

6) A device that disables the ignition when idiots get behind the wheel (example: The fool that cuts across four lanes of traffic to make an exit he/she is about to pass at 70 miles an hour)

7) Wheels on telescopic poles so you can drive over traffic.

i like the drive over traffic idea......

The vacuum would be the best...perfect for making cupping marks.



WinsomeDefiance -> RE: Seriously? (9/14/2016 10:36:17 AM)

Seriously, anyone who has had children knows how important a built in vacuum could be. Hell, my grown children seem to make as big a mess now, as they did when little.

Also, suction cup marks - YES.

I think if all vehicles were equipped with telescoping drive over traffic capabilities, we'd have multi-layered traffic jams. Which, I confess, I find terribly amusing as a mental image.

I think that appeared in one of the really early (like, late '70s) Judge Dredd strips: the artists name that springs to mind is Ian Gibson, but he did a lot of Dredds as well as Robo-Hunter and The Ballad Of Halo Jones.

#8 - Rocket launchers to blast that asshole that just cut you off to Kingdom Come.

#9 - Something that disables texting while driving. I am thinking of something that swings down from the roof, grabs the phone and crushes it... and then says, "Have a nice day."

#10 - A warning label printed on the horn button. Warning: Do not use as a doorbell... get out of your fucking car and ring the actual doorbell.

#11 - Radios that cannot get over a certain decibel level. The maximum level would be so that no one else has to sit there and listen to your shitty music.

#12 - High beams that lower themselves when there is oncoming traffic.

#13 - Tailgater vaporizers. This machine would monitor your driving habits, if it finds that you habitually tailgate people, the next time you start the car, you become a puff of smoke... and you are gone from the planet forever.

#14 - A device that would gently pick up the people that see fit to walk out into the street without looking first, and gently place them back on the sidewalk. The device then launches a 100 ton weight that lands on them.

#15 - Idiot lights that ACTUALLY come on BEFORE the engine blows up.

#16 - Self-closing gas caps and covers.

16 is definitely a good one. You'd think some sort of flexible valve that'll let in a pump nozzle but stop the contents from spilling out could have been contrived by now, wouldn't you?

Any mother who has ever transported a group of kids knows the value of a built in car vacuum. It ought to turn itself on and clean the car in the middle of the night. And wash the insides of the windows at the same time.

The last not just for parents but for dog owners also.
And roo bars ought to be standard as well. They work equally well on deer but not so good on moose.



WhoreMods -> RE: Seriously? (9/16/2016 4:40:57 AM)

I didn't know it was possible to fit a deer or moose with roll bars.
[:D]

But probably best on pedestrians.

Well, once you get them to stand still while you use the wielder and drill on them....
