Jeez I'm turning into a tech toy freak

I dont like computers + cars / bikes. I like pistons and petrol. Although If its a shit box car a decent stero is nice. I Likes the cars with the "distance to empty" and "Km per L" on the dash. But gps? Maybe if I was a tourist overseas... but only then if the hire car had it.. Whats wrong with a map?

We drive a Honda Ellesion ( sp) well just about everything goes beep /whistle ..burp

The dashboard tells you everything from air temp to average km/l and inlet Hg
Has a reversing camera ( which is very usefull)
The console has an Awesome stereo that takes a Pc card, so i connect any card /HD that connects through a pc card ,,,

DVD /CD Tv player But the Gps system is cool you type in the telephone number and a voice guides you ... 300 meter migi hogo desu !

( turn right in 300 meters )

it even tells you when you are drifting in you lane when driving on the motorway !

So I switch the FR$%^&*ing thing off! .....its good when you dont know the address , tokyo is a nightmre to navigate in

but other than that and checking for traffic flow the brain is better !!!

It does all sorts, Moving average, total average, time moving. time stopped, total time, speed and max speed.
I can defend speeding tickets now.
Price was a bit of a deal with the importer, but retail is around $1200 with the bike mount kit.

Got to Blenhiem and back OK in the F100 'lorry', never needed a GPS OR a radar detector, saved over $2000 on those two items, shame the petrol bill was about $450 though!!!

Good on ya Lou, technology like that is way too much effort to get my head around for day-to-day use but would be handy to have.

I entered 'scumdog' and it showed me exactly where you live. That's technology for you, there was even a rum bottle icon showing.

And I can use it to defend speeding tickets too!

It's all good so far.
