rmc523 Posted March 10, 2009 Author Share Posted March 10, 2009 I thought this was funny: ...but it's a little too fantastical and hilarious to imagine rocking down the blacktop in a new Taurus SHO and having the car say "You don't need to drive like a jerk just because you're mad at me."

Mark B. Morrow Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 I want the version that talks exclusively in movie references. "Put your seatbelt on, boy. I don't ride with anybody 'less they wear their seatbelt. It's one of my rules." "I just want to say good luck, we're all counting on you."

blazerdude20 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 does it hold grudges? a man (rick) and his wife (cindy)... rick talks to an ex GF through sync... then yells at the nav system for giving the wrong directions... the next time rick and cindy are in the car together the nav asks rick if he has talked to his ex today... "never yell at me again, rick!" bad things on the horizon for rick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
