Car Gadgets That Make Driving Fun

Automobile technology has evolved throughout the years and as a result cars are more wired, safer and offer more entertainment value than ever before. Let's take a look at some of the niftiest auto features around Autel Maxisys MS908CV.

Can you imagine driving without hearing anything except your running engine? It can get boring quite fast! Today's vehicles even have USB ports which allow you to plug in your Ipod player while others are equipped with massive hard drives allowing you to store tens of thousands of tunes and browse them via album or artist.

The sunroof is a feature that allows you to allow the fresh air and sun's rays while you're driving. It may seem like a simple thing and not really a big deal but it's the smaller things that can make driving a lot more pleasant.

A good navigation system can be quite useful, especially if you driving in an unknown area. This can get really handy when travelling or even in your own backyard. Many can even give you traffic updates and help you avoid congested and backed up roads.

Power windows and seats are another wonderful invention. Can you imagine having to roll the window up or down while you are driving? Power windows allow us the adjust the windows in a cinch. Electric windows were first invented by Packard in the 40's. Power seats are another nifty invention which allows us to adjust our seats by simply pressing a button.

Cruise control is another very useful mechanism, especially on long road trips. It works by controlling the speed of a car at a predetermined rate. It was invented in 1945 by famous inventor Ralph Teetor.

Eco Gauge Systems turns efficient driving into a fun challenge. Many consumers want to learn how to become more efficient drivers in order to save on gasoline costs. Ford has a feature called the SmartGauge which trains drivers to become even more efficient drivers. The LCD screen shows grean leaves which grow and become more beautiful the more efficient you drive! This is a great motivation to drive more efficiently which may include driving at an even rate of speed and less braking. Ford cars which include SmartGauge include the 2012 Ford Fusion hybrid Autel MaxiCOM MK808TS. The idea to use leaves as animation came from designer George Macon.

Before Bluetooth was invented you could see many drivers holding a cell phone to their head when driving; definitely not a safe combination. Now thanks to this technology, drivers can keep their hands on the wheel while communicating with others. Some vehicle systems, such as Ford's SYNC system even allow the driver to use voice commands in order to place and receive telephone calls. Ford's Sync system actually enables you to receive audible text messages through your vehicle's speakers. SYNC's Applink actually allows you to use your smartphone apps by voice commands and controlling the buttons on the steering wheel. You can even update your Twitter account when driving via the OpenBeak application available on Blackberry phones.
