Hitchbot is a PR stunt/social experiment: http://finance.yahoo.com/news/robot-hitchhikers-now-a-reality-161123465.html

Up in Canada, unless someone kidnaps him and transports him across the US border, surely a robo-felony.

    Hey, nobody rides for free... How did that old saying go? something about Gas, something, something... Oh well, it was a long time ago when hitchhikers would get into the back of your van with no fear...

    With robots it's "Lamps, Amps, or Stamps, nobody rides for free." Something like that, anyway.

    Surely someone can do better. Gimme 3 things robotic which all rhyme. Perhaps PhiPi, the wordsmith...?

    Perhaps tires, wires or pliers.

    (Wire) Strippers, nippers, or grippers?

    In a box, with a fox? On a train, in the rain? Here or there, or anywhere?
