How to get in after a wreck when the car is "T"Boned. or when the door won"t go up if the battery dies. Snow plow passing gives another meaning to the words O- SH--t! when your at the parking lot at wally world. OH The life and times of the RICH AND SHAMELESS,YEHAAAAAAAAAA,

Looks good until you consider what would happen if you get in or out with muddy feet? The door would always be dirty and/or get worn due to "adverse conditions". Ideas that look good on paper often don't function well in the real world. Mike

interesting ideas in cars come along from the gull wing entry,suicide door Lincolns and everything in between..its an interesting concept but I don't think practical. I could just see my door opening onto a big chunk of ice or frozen snow and putting a tremedous dent it it! If you lived in a warm snow free climate it could be an elegant luxury. I see it as a concept car.
Actually what a car needs is for a females car to have the side mirrors collapse inward upon entering a garage door.
3 weeks ago while backing out of the garage my wife busted her passenger mirror right off the pillar. Broke the schitt out of the mirror, $180 fix for her. Oops.

Yeah, I kind of thought about the same idea, sort of. The girlfriend is real mad at you for hitting on some other hottie at the bar and goes out and kicks a few dents in the door and then catches a cab home, after pick pocketing your wallet in a fit of anger. You can't take the hottie home because your mad girlfriend is there and she is MAD, MAD, MAD. But you can't take your hottie to her home because the dented door won't roll down. You can't even use the back seat because the same dented door. You can't catch a cab back to her place because the girlfriend pick pocketed you and you have no money. You can't even go back into the bar because the bartender kicked you out for stiffing him for drinks because the girlfriend pick pocketed you. And now while the two of you are standing outside with nowhere to go and no how to get there, a snow plow comes past...and the whole night gets even worse.
Should have bought a Ford Pinto. At least you could have gotten into the doors and kept warm with your new hottie while it burned.

Oh come on, Pete, I got an Ideer about how to get a passing gear in the algoremobile, you just wait till the horse farts, and ignite it like an afterburner, on jet fighter!
The story about the mirrors knocked off by the garage doors, brought to mind this:
I worked at a Dodge dealer when the first mini vans came out. didn't take long for the side mirrors to bite the dust. they'd come in with a mutilated side mirror hanging like an eye on its tendon!
One lady took one off each side, a week apart. Said she was watching to see if the left mirror had clearance, and "BANG"!, off went the other side! Several weeks, after i had replaced both of them, she removed another one!
I told her to have the garage door opening made to give clearance, by having a carpenter cut slots in the doorway so the mirrors would just go in and not hit! Three weeks later, she came in with another mirror broken off and the door smashed in! Never saw her again, after i fixed it.

I agree with big fred (solution looking for a problem). Plus, can you imagine the cost to fix a door after an accident? Or when the warranty runs out? "
They ought to show an ad where you pull up to the theater with the women in fancy gowns and the passenger side door motor dies and the women are crawling across the console to get out the other side.
As it is, with all the electronic modules, motorized seats, motorized mirrors, etc. a modern day car is a nightmare ($$$) as they age. I've replaced numerous power window motors on vehicles after six figure mileage. But at least I could drive it and use the doors until I got them fixed.
Guess it shows how lazy humans are getting when they don't even want to exert the energy to open a door.
