    I also saw recently an article where the car can read the bot dots by radar and stay in between them driving by itself.

    BMW Has been doing that for about a year now, It's an awesome feature if you have a tight garage or suck at Parallel parking like me.  :icon16:


    Very neat to watch!

    That is what I need for parking in my garage. When I had this house built I paid for a 48x48 garage, which is supposed to be a two car garage - I been looking high and low and haven't figured out how I am to get two cars in there. My girlfriend is such a pack rat that
    the entire garage is practically full with junk - She has bell bottoms, platform shoes, I wouldn't be surprised if they found a copy of the declaration of independence in there somewhere.

    That feature will be really cool and novel up until someone's engine controller goes bezerk, and drives the car through a wall.

    Or a good sized dumpster. Hell with the yard/garage sale, I am the type that if I haven't used it in six months then it gets thrown away.
