First Claim
1. A device comprising:
- a processor configured to;
determine a vehicle-operator profile for a driver;
determine a first plurality of adjustable-vehicle-related parameters for one of a plurality of remote vehicles based on the vehicle-operator profile, andtransmit a prioritized list of a subset of the plurality of remote vehicles to a display device viewable by the driver, the list being prioritized based on the first plurality of adjustable-vehicle-related parameters; and
a network-communication interface, wherein the processor is configured to transmit the first plurality of adjustable-vehicle-related parameters to at least one of the plurality of remote vehicles by at least transmitting the first plurality of adjustable-vehicle-related parameters to the at least one of the plurality of remote vehicles via a data network using the network-communication interface.

Abstract
A method, system, and device are presented for customizing vehicles for drivers using a vehicle-operator profile. The vehicle-operator profile contains adjustable-vehicle-related parameters related to one or more adjustable devices, such as power seats, power mirrors and entertainment devices, in a vehicle. The adjustable-vehicle-related parameters may be determined by data entry, by simulation of the vehicle, and/or by data processing, including processing ergonomic data for the driver. The adjustable-vehicle-related parameters may be stored on a profile-storage device and may be downloaded to the adjustable devices via a vehicle-setting-storage device. The adjustable devices may change based on the adjustable-vehicle-related parameters. If the adjustable devices are adjusted, the adjustable-vehicle-related parameters in the vehicle-operator profile may be updated to reflect the adjustments to the adjustable devices.

11. A system comprising:
a vehicle from among a plurality of vehicles comprising; a vehicle-setting-storage device configured to receive a plurality of adjustable-vehicle-related parameters, a display device viewable by a driver, and an adjustable device, configured to be adjusted based on at least one of the plurality of adjustable-vehicle-related parameters; and a profile-storage device remote from the vehicle and configured to; select a vehicle-operator profile from a plurality of vehicle-operator profiles, wherein each vehicle-operator profile defines at least one adjustable-vehicle-related parameter, create a prioritized list of the plurality of remote vehicles, transmit the prioritized list of the plurality of remote vehicles to the display device, the list being prioritized based in part on the at least one adjustable-vehicle related parameter, and transmit the at least one adjustable-vehicle related parameter from the selected vehicle-operator profile to the vehicle.
