Either as a factory install or aftermarket add-on, put two remote controlled robotic arms on the tops of cars. Someone (preferably a passenger) could manipulate the arms. Communicate with people or interact with your surroundings.
- wave to neighbors
- flip off idiots who cut you off
-
make that little "call me" gesture with the thumb and pinky
- give "high fives" to your buddys
- hold a mattress
- play "Basketballmobile"
- finally reach the keypad on the ATM without hanging halfway out the window
- indicate the traffic up ahead to ask "what's the problem"
- raise your hands to shrug "I don't know"
- change the light bulb in the garage
Make them strong enough and use them to raise the car when you need to change a tire.

What I would REALLY REALLY want to do is build a giant cereal bowl and spoon, then paint the opening to my garage like the mouth of a monster, complete with fake pointy teeth and a remote loudspeaker in the garage facing out the door. Then periodically feed the massive beast using the garage door opener to chomp on the food with, and put on your best Molock-the-skullcrusher voice through the loudspeaker and demand a larger sacrifice. Have voulenteers splashed with fake blood lay half-way in the monster's mouth and scream ... |

I worry about you sometimes...that and your obvious lack of things to do...;) |

Great idea. Hold hands with other cars. Clear fallen branches off the road. Attach a trailer in heavy rain without getting wet. Feed dangerous animals in those drive-through animal parks. Pat them. |
