Anybody else have buddies that ride in their car? This little guy was $10 the other day and being a total nerd I couldn’t resist. He joins my plush R2D2 who lives in my cupholder.

When I was in high school, I had a small  stuffed dog that rode on the dash. Then one day, I took a high speed left sweeper and he slid across the dash and put the open window. Bye, bye puppy.

This is Raymond. He is a manta ray. He watches over me.

Sadly not. I am always worried someone will steal my radar detector let alone a cool nerd item like your cool Mass Effect buddy.

Cool. Looks  like a Krogan from Mass Effect. Is that what it’s supposed to be?

My dad lost an actual dog out the window going around a tight turn. Luckily the dog wasn’t seriously hurt , but was also too stunned to run away.

A more current photo as I’ve added a few pins over the months. H e protect the goods - note the beauty mark double stamped side marker. Auto plushies offered to send another, but it just adds character.

I have an Ash ketchum in my center console, and my wife has Beanie baby elephant on the dash, and I got a model of Jesse’s Jetta to keep in the Rabbit

On a dusty and bright October, nearing Halloween in the mid 1990s, a friend gave me a toy  werewolf head that howled. Over the ensuing years of riding various cars, it no longer howls, yet the paint has held up remarkably well.

Yes. It's Grunt from Mass Effect 2/3.

Sadly this one doesn't talk. The Mordin they sell sings but the Grunt and Garrus are just normal plushies.

Should have gotten some sticky Velcro pads. That’s what I did with the elephant on my wife’s dash

Two things. The first gives some insight into how ancient I am - while velcro was a thing, it’s uses were limited to the fly on your pants and the shoes on your feet. Sticky-back velcro wasn’t a thing when this happened.

Second, there is no way, even today, that I would be using adhesive of any kind for sticking anything to my dashboard. That’s a good way to permanently ruin a dash.

In a plastic dash I can’t see that adhesive doing any harm. I also used it to keep a hotwheels on the dash of my red Civic I took it off after two years and with a bit of windex it all came off.
