I don't think that's useless, that'd be pretty nice.

No man, they have those in amsterdam and they are so nice for when you have no idea what's going on. Also the people there won't let you use their bathrooms

grubix2Those cars are going to be really useful when everyone is crying their eyes out over gas being over $4 here in the states. Also it's proven that honda and toyota life is longer than american car life. (which by the way a lot of are made over in japan. example: my dad's ford van is made in a nissan plant.) I hope hardcore americans don't cry over their car parts coming from asian countries now.


any car is likely to be made anywhere. for example i know both merecedes and toyota produce some models in tennesee. also companies team up like ford and hyundai to create engines and stuff. you can't just buy a chrysler, for example, and assume you are getting a purely american car.

I know it's not :( but I didn't want to start an invention thread to have a bunch of docks tell me it was a repost.
