In the 80s, Gary Numan released a #1 single called "Cars" that goes, "Here in my car, I feel safest of all, I can lock all my doors, it's the only way to live, in cars." The song has remained relevant through the years, as nowadays people spend large portions of their day in cars, commuting back and forth to work.

We've explored how to bring your car into the aughts and the best upgrades for your car stereo system. Now, what about those people who actually use their vehicle for work, as a mobile office? With more and more businesses seeing the value of having employees mobile, there's a growing need for cars to be outfitted with the same equipment and gadgets to get the job done as you would find in cubicles at an office. Plus, it's just cool — and you might as well make good use of that time you're stuck in traffic.

So read on for our tips and deals to turn your car into a mobile office! (And if you'd like that Gary Numan tune to supplement your reading, it's available for 99 cents at Amazon.)
