After competing in the Australian Open, professional golfer Adam Scott decided to purchase a brand new BMW motor vehicle from a prestige dealership in Sydney before returning home to Queensland. On the way home he noticed a huge sign on the roadside which read “Fuel With Driveway Service – 5 Kilometres". He was running low on fuel, so he decided to pull over for a break and refuel his new prized possession.
When he pulled up at the fuel pump, a little old man came out and asked how he could be of service.
“Fill her up” Adam said.
The little old man walked around the car looking for the fuel cap, but it was nowhere to be seen, so he walked up to the driver’s side window and asked Adam where it could be located.
“You put the fuel in the rear panel back there. It’s not obvious now but it is once its open you’ll see it.” Adam replied.
The little old man looked back at the rear of the car but still couldn’t see where to the fuel had to go. Suddenly a panel opened up like magic in the side of the car and the little old man was in awe.
“It just opened up by itself. How does that work?” asked the little old man as he scratched his head in bewilderment.
“I gave it a voice command which unlocks the panel. Now you can pump the fuel in” Adam said smugly.
“You mean that you spoke to the car and it opened the fuel cap?” asked the little old man.
“Yeah mate! It’s a standard feature. All of the new BMWs have got it.” said Adam.
The little old man filled the tank with fuel and walked back to the driver side window. He noticed that Adam was now drinking a frothy Cappuccino from a polystyrene cup.
The little old man looked at Adam and asked, “Where did you get that drink from?”
“The entertainment system is equipped with a drink dispenser. If I get thirsty while I’m driving, I simply tell it what I’d like to drink. It’ll prepare all kinds of hot or cold beverages and deliver them inside the centre console between the front seats.” Adam said as sipped at the hot frothy brew.
“You mean your car can actually make drinks and serve them to you?” asked the little old man.
“Yeah mate! It’s a standard feature. All of the new BMWs have got it. It’ll dispense just about any drink that you can think of” Adam replied.
The little old man shook his head in disbelief and then asked, “So what is that entertainment system thing you mentioned?”
“It plays music, DVD and Blu-ray Disks. It has a radio which is capable of receiving over 300 stations from all around the world in digital stereo; and it also has a full subscription to Foxtel. Essentially I can watch any movie or sports program in stunning digital High Definition and it’s completely free from television commercials. When I give it the correct voice command a 32 inch widescreen plasma television drops down out of the hood lining and my kids can watch movies in the back seat when I’m on long trips with my family.
“You’re kidding?” said the little old man.
Adam replied, “No I’m not! It’ll even dispense popcorn and pizza, but that only works from the rear seats. It’s a standard feature. All of the new BMWs have got it.”
At that point Adam decided to get out of his car to stretch his legs when a golf tee fell out of his pocket and landed on the ground next to the little old man. The little old man picked it up and examined it closely, but he could not figure out what it was.
“You dropped this thing when you got out of your car. What is it? The little old man asked as he closely examined the tee.
Adam replied “It’s a tee.”
The little old man appeared confused and asked, “What do you use that for?”
“I use it to put my balls on when I’m driving” said Adam.
The little old man stood there shaking his head in shear amazement for a moment and finally said, “BMW aye? They think of everything”.
