"I'll crash my own car, thank you."
But the new MICROS~1 "IntelliCar" (TM) does it for you - instantly and by itself! Click on "Start", then "Engine", doubleclick on the fuel icon, then select "How much?" and click on the +/- buttons until the correct fuel is shown, then click on "My Car" again, a menu "Route to..." will appear and you scroll down to the place you want to drive to. Then, click OK and restart your car to get the setting activated. Phone the MICROS~1 "Gates to Everywhere" (TM) activation service and tell them your car number, registration code and engine model, you'll immediately receive your activation code. Click it into your steering wheel. Remember to drive as Administrator or you'll be stopped automagically at every traffic light, even if it's green. Then, call for support because nothing happens - except the doors open and the engine falls out of the car. That's innovation, dude!
Sorry, couldn't resist. :-)
