Although my fiancé had no complaints, the back seats in the Phantom are very cramped for a full size adult. Luckily I was in the front but it should be nice in the back to sustain the RR tradition.

Wait a sec, as far as I knew, no turn technology has been around for awhile on larger trucks such as Mack's. Is the one on the RR a completely different design that required a different patent?

The hub-odomoter has been around a log time. It's purpose is to count mileage on a trailer, as trailers get pulled by many tractors and they lose track of how many miles the trailers have been. They need to know how many miles for maintenance purposes. I am sure there other reasons also. At any rate, that patent must have expired long ago. I have a United States Patent on that art which is good for 20 years from the date that I applied. The Patent office let me build an older patent into this new patent. This made our new hub cap theft-proof as you must remove the wheel in order to remove the hub cap.

Did he replace the fixed wheels with spinnas?

Yes... from what I saw. He usually drives a black CL 600 with spinners. I heard he has a CL 65 and an SLR too.

We have already done a prototype of a Porsche crest sitting in the center of the steering wheel, just sitting there looking at you, always in the upright position. Is there a market for such???
