Well, the first thing I would do is re-enact the opening to The Jetsons. After that, I am not sure. Although they would ALL need to be self driving because even what we now call a fender bender would wind up being deadly in one of these things.

I mean really, shouldn’t we already be flying around? I remember watching the jetsons as a kid and I could hardly wait to grow up to drive one of those.

Yep, I agree. Although nowadays there are so many idiots on the road in cars that do stupid things that I think it would be too dangerous to let them lose in flying cars. Now if they could make it some sort of mass transit flying bus system I think that could work.

Think about the cars in the movie The Fifth Element if you've seen that one.

Wait! We have flying cars. It happened 32 years ago.

The flying car in the 1985 documentary, Back To The Future? You know, the one Doc and Marty use at the end of the first one, and all of installment two?

Actually, there's another flying car that precedes this one, from the 1961 science film classic, The Absent Minded Professor. You probably watched it in high school in your Physics class.

Okay, maybe not.

There is hope, though. When I was growing up, I was waiting for Marvel Comic movies to come out. That finally happened, so flying cars can't be that far away, can they?

I've been watching this one off on and on for a while.

Answer to Contest Question: I'd like to say I'd use a flying car for humanitarian reasons or some other nobler cause, but I'd probably primarily use it to buy Egg McMuffins where I live in Western Oregon and then share them with my son and daughter-in-law who live on the east side of Idaho. I could make it there before the food gets cold, right?

Congrats on being the first ever to win in my game! We had a tie for first and lots of consolation prizes :)

I would use it to get a height advantage on the Amazon delivery drones. Attack with the sun at your back. :)

Thank you! It was fun. :)

lol yes it was... and thank you for adding to the banter! I'll let you know when we have another and you can parlay that big stack you just won... hahaha

Most likely all the mass built drone cars will have an automated control system with few options to "drive" the vehicle yourself. However, if I build my own flying car then probably stuff like go camping in remote locations. I would fly to the upper peninsula of Michigan, or in the finger lakes region of upstate New York and take photos and videos of all the amazing water falls and mountains.

Well @davemccoy, I used to hear about a future with flying cars, and I used to think, 'ya sure, when pigs fly'. So, if I had one of these babies, I would collect a few homeless pigs and take them on a virgin flight to all of their favorite eateries because I can only imagine how after all the excitement, they would be starving:)

You really are a great guy for putting this together! Thanks!

Great answer!

Cool, this is a good start to my day! Love the comps and will be back for more in the future! Cheers and have a good day.

Have a great day yourself and I'm glad you played!

This is exciting..

I would use the flying car to fly underprivileged kids and kids who are terminally ill to see the world. Uplift their spirits, connect with other children.

Kids are our future...

Hey thanks @davemccoy and congratulations to all who participated.

I'm glad you played @sighmanjestah... I enjoyed to having fun and watch some creative personalities interact!! :) It was fun and I hope to do one again in the next few weeks!

ps ... I especially like you and Erza's little banter back and forth... Both of you are funny!

I will load food supplies onto a flying car and transport them to war-ravaged or poor countries such as Venezuela and Palestine.
