I was already pointed to an app called Llama, which I'll try first. If that fizzles, I'll take a shot at Tasker. It's actually more than just the car. I use Roaming Squirrel's superb scientific calculator at work, where I also have a charger. So, the bottom line is I don't want to the screen to...

I have my Razr Maxx set up with Smart Actions to set screen brightness to max when charging, and under "Developer options" I have set "Stay awake" to ON. Okay, but the screen still dims down to almost-off after some number of seconds when on the charger, so that I have to touch the screen to...

You can also collect all those direct dials into a folder, and then it's just like speed dial, except now you're not limited to nine numbers, and you don't have to remember who got assigned to what number.
