Are you suggesting a checklist??? PSHHH...I don't have time for no stinkin checklist. (and I've all but forgotten how to use this ancient tool you call "pen" and "paper")

Haha!!!
I'd lose my own head if it wasn't attached most of the time, I write EVERYTHING down.
Of course, as per usual of losing things, I lose the list....
Me? I'd forget to program the thing before I left so it wouldn't do me a lick of good.

I find it is much easier to reboot the analog solution as well as much more inexpensive to add more memory. Freaks everyone out that I do notes and such with paper when I have two computers on my desk.
WHOA. I'm embarrassed to say I could really use one of those! :)

If the degree to which the copywriter pays attention to detail is extended to the product itself .... I don't know if I would want this. I spotted at least one typo in the ad copy.
But, all that aside, that would be cool, epscially if one could use the device(s) in a "normal" car as well. Not too sure I would want to pony up the $$ for the the F-150 just to use the RFID tracker system.
As for the pencil & paper solution - I didn't use to have to resort to such mundane tools, just remember it all. But, I'm finding the gray cells aren't working as well as they used to :D :wink

Is that the system that utilizes repeated pounding of an elongated metal rod with a tapered end in an endeavor to create an assortment of notches and grooves in a slab of natural stone? I've heard of this before....
:D
I think the concept is interesting and could be a real life saver.
Of course I have no idea who is in charge of their marketing. Is this only available in a Ford150? Where can you buy it? The big question............how much does the D$&^M thing cost??????
I am getting the idea that if you have to ask who much is it. You can't afford it.

I have since learned that it will be available on the much more rad and parkable Transit Connect (Interconnect). I'm actually in talks with my local Ford dealer, and the system seems like it will be a 1200 dollar add on once available. The backseat model would be the perfect wedding photographer vehicle, 4 ft 11 inch ceilings and low load floor would be tall enough to store lights mounted to stands, standing UP! Backseat would be for assistants, as my primary camera ALWAYS ride shotgun.
