    Default If there was ONE thing you think a car/truck can DO WITHOUT....

    It would have to be HEADRESTS...i mean, I don't even use mine and If I do, my usage will only last for seconds because they have to be to most uncomfortable way to rest your head.

    If I recline in a chair to relax (Riding shotgun) I'll just rest my head on the seat's back portion.

    Anyone agree? or do we have peeps on here driving Ford Tauruses or something like that, let me find out that there are cars out there with comfy headrests.


    Personal Input? What do you think a car can do without?

    oh shit, I do the same thing too. Sometimes I take the headrest out and just put my neck on the seats.

    I think cars can do without cupholders... mostly because my car doesn't have one.
    It really helps with the no eating or drinking in my car policy.

    Seriously, even with emergency stops when you have to apply the brakes hard they serve a purpose. For me it would be the ashtray. I use my cup holder for change, cell phone, and other uses. Plus I never see people who smoke in their cars use them anyways. They are always flinging their cigarettes out the window when their done with them.

    headrests are most definitely a necessity. Whiplash is a motherfucker.

    I could do without back seats. they just cause you to have to give more people rides when you don't want to.

    women in the drivers seat, asians in the drivers seat, ASIAN WOMEN IN THE DRIVERS SEAT <-----

    ashtrays are useless... why would you want to keep your smelly ass old ashes in there? i smoke in my car all the time and it doesnt smell because the windows stay down and the ashtray is never used.

    fuseboxes belong under the hood.



    thats about all i can think of right now, but im sure theres more lol.

    I'm pretty sure Paul was talking about like the toyota trucks that have a DC-AC inverter built in. So you could just plug up your small TV or laptop or coffee maker(if you wanted) And have no need for a inverter.They do have built in inverters nowadays. :P

    What do you mean YOU people?!

    wow really? because im pretty sure you still need a invertor to get your a/c 110v out of a DC 12v accessory outlet... aka a car.

    Back up camera's. If you kill a kid that is chilling behind your car while you back up, just chalk it up to natural selection.

    i call it a stupid driver that cant look around the vehicle for objects around it that they might hit. also things like low tires and broken/cracked windows and lights. if you hit a kid when you back out i hope you go to jail for a very long time.

    Fukin "parking assist" dumbasses if u cant park ur car, ur cars to damn big or ur to damn stupid to learn your foot-print.

    SUV's could be rid of entirely, since we know the cost to own them not only prevents you from taking them off-road, due to costs of repairs, but also. The SUV's nowadays arent built to be dirty and come with 23inch wheels and damn HIDs.

    Luxury trucks can also GTFO because if u own a truck u should use a truck. WTF is the point of having a truck that cant take a beating? O... I'm wealthy, I'll buy a truck cuz it makes my dick look bigger, when its covered in chrome and has 20's on it and it cant even stand a 1 ton load of fuking bricks.
