Abstract: The present invention relates to a timing apparatus and methods of its use in quantifying the time parameter of being away from a vehicle. The timing apparatus having a menu included with a set of numbers corresponding to user selectable time parameters, a control knob adjustable to designate a selected time parameter from the set of numbers, the selected time parameter representing the time until the vehicle will be turned back on, and a sensor connected to the control knob and a microprocessor, the sensor providing a proximate selected position of the control knob in reference to the set of numbers, the selected position representing the selected time parameter.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for reducing undesirable air flow in a passenger compartment of a forward moving vehicle taps into an external air stream source to provide a counteractive air flow supply. The counteractive air flow supply is used to introduce at least one generally forward to rearward directed counteractive flow of air into the passenger compartment at a generally laterally central portion of the vehicle in an amount and at a velocity sufficient to counteract at least a portion of a rearward to forward flow of air in the passenger compartment to provide a forward to rearward directed flow of air through a generally laterally central portion of the passenger compartment at a head level of at least one front seat passenger.

Abstract: Users are provided with the option of having destination information, such as a street address and/or destination phone number, obtained from online mapping services, transmitted to their vehicle's navigation system. In certain embodiments, the user may logon to an online vehicle server to provide information necessary to identify their respective vehicle. Once the target vehicle is identified, the destination information may be transmitted to this vehicle by the vehicle server, after which the vehicle's navigation and communication system may be automatically populated with the received destination information.
