Isn't this crazy?

Social networkers, Ford has created a car just for you. The Ford Evos plug-in hybrid concept vehicle is so smart, it can socially network with its driver's friends and recommend roads and routes that might be quickest or the most fun to drive.

The vehicle's designers want the car to always be connected to the cloud, which will allow it to know the driver's work schedule, constantly keep tabs on traffic and weather conditions, and assist and monitor the driver in an attempt to "enable a seamless lifestyle between home, office and car linked by access to the driver's personal information."

This sporty four-seat concept car was first rolled out in Germany this week. The Evos will debut at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show in September.

I hope motor technology gets to a point where I don't even have to drive anymore. My car can just do everything for me. :)

I'm going to say it. They've gone too far!
