A vehicle system includes a navigation system, a communication interface, and a processing device. The navigation system determines a first vehicle location 305. The communication interface receives social network information over a communication network 315. The social network information includes a second vehicle location 320. A processing device determines the proximity of the first vehicle location to the second vehicle location 325 and generates a message based on the proximity 330. The proximity may be compared to a predetermined distance threshold, which may be based on a ZIP code, with the message being generated if the second vehicle location is below the distance threshold. The message may include a traffic update and vehicle status update and information relating to the activities of the vehicle occupant, e.g. listening to a particular radio station. |
