Presenting
the New Mercedes Benz SCL 600




Pretty, isn't it?







So?
What's different about this car?









Not this...









OR even this...
Here is the

real difference





WHOA !
NoSteering Wheel. No Pedals either.







You drive this car with a joystick.



Do you think that you can drive with a joystick?

Your kids and

grand kids sure can.

The

influence of video games in our lives
has really arrived, wouldn't you

say?

But there is more!
The SCARY THOUGHT is:

NOW a

3-YEAR-OLD can STEAL your car
AND DRIVE IT BETTER THAN YOU CAN !

Yep

Start checking the senior bus schedule!!!!

I think it will happen, airliners are already using joystick controls and the last time I rented a skid steer loader it had joysticks instead of the usual pedals and levers. It took a little bit to get used to but after that I liked it.
