Abstract
A system and method are provided for selectively setting one or more variable vehicle operating parameters or features by storing information representative of user/driver preferences on a portable information storage device, and later recalled to automatically adjust the same or other system or device to the same setting(s). Examples of such systems or devices includes seat position, mirrors, radio presets, climate control settings, Web sites, bookmarks, and mobile telephone presets. The personalized “settings” are thus available to be transported and transferred where desired by the possessor of the device.
