We’ll just throw out the fact that this thing is a major driving distraction and focus on the pure joy of getting to program five custom messages that scroll across the digital screen of this mountable device. The Roadmaster Rear Deck Scrolling Digital Message System — doesn’t that say it all? — can be had for $60. Besides your own messages, it comes preloaded with 86 phrases, like “My other car is a Porsche” and “I brake for no apparent reason.” There’s also the standard “Baby on board” and “Zebra x’ing ahead.” Yeah, um…zebra crossing. Sure. Anyway, give us your top picks for what you would program into this joyous little rear deck display, but keep it clean please.
