What I was going to post before I became distracted by the new clicky things...
1Who do you think reached out to whom in this situation?? Is it just a marketing ploy? I think it is mighty interesting in concept and execution.

I think it is heartwarming either way. Will it make me buy a Hyundai? Nah. But sometimes you gotta choose the warm fuzzy over the cold hard dollars.
@Pamtha I totally agree with the warm fuzzy.. I think that is why I clicked on the article originally. Then the technology was facinating!
Cool use of technology (the in car guidance toys). Would have been even cooler to see VW/Audi do this completely autonomously with one of their DARPA cars or their latest cross country autonomous car. But kudos to Hyundai for executing beautifully.
@RedOak I have to show to my kids still, but the technology is amazing. I am one of those people who goes to a broadway show and watches the mechanics of the stage props and asks, how, why, and then just WOW...
@mikibell I wasn't really referring to the built-in tech in the car. Rather the tech they added in order to coordinate the drivers.
@RedOak Same here.. it was amazing.. kinda like watching a sewing machine embroider..
