We spent a lot of time discussing wants, needs, etc… and we’ve compared Bronco/Wrangler and Rivian and Tesla.
But What If there was some crazy item you’ve always thought would be cool in a vehicle. At some point somebody suggested a vacuum in minivans.
In high school I designed a car with a new idea-never patented it and a year later Subaru offered it. It was a mini metal roll top cover that came down over the radio face and locked wit the car key to prevent/or make more difficult for a car thief to steal.
I’m guessing others might have an offbeat idea that could be a new great feature.
-We’ve talked about the bottle opener-not new but I never thought about that.
-Loop hooks at the inside top edges of the roof to “mount” fishing rods when traveling.
-how about extra speakers integrated where the grill is so when tailgating you could push tunes out from the front of the vehicle
-maybe a connection to emergency services that alerts you visually and audibly when an ambulance or fire truck is approaching at your location so you can pull out of the way faster. With stop sign recognition maybe something that tracks train crossings to improve safety
-could inside of the tailgate have a swing up cushioned back rest to create a bench when sitting on the tailgate
-side hooks with heavy duty water proof bags to drop in wet/sandy clothes and shoes that could then be pulled out and rinsed or washed in the washing machine
-maybe a heavy m sh back that mounts below the rear floor for they same stuff listed above. Then it can drip dry on the way home.
-pop out/compression release usb/plug jacks that are in the ends of the front or rear arm rests. Airplanes make use of the arm rests, why not cars. Maybe you get sunglass storage in the armrest space so the overhead console can have switches like the Bronco has.
Just some of my crazy thoughts. Do you have any off beat ideas we might all love and come to realize they are simple but super convenient and can’t believe nobody offered it before?
