Hmmm ... the code seems to be fine (as far as I can tell from the code snippet)
Can you perhaps declare your RequestVars outside of Cars scope? just object locationQuery extends RequestVar[Box[LocationQuery]](Empty) class Cars { ... } .. personally I would avoid using open_! unless I'm really sure that the Box is not Empty.
