There's a funny 90s film I saw once on TV about some US midwestern family driving through space in their car, but have to make a pit stop (crash landing?) on Earth. They're immediately seized by the US government who grill and torture the dad on how their vehicle works, and the dad's like "well there's a clutch... and you got the gas pedal..."

I really wish I could find that film again, it had stoner comedy vibes


Edit: It might be Mom and Dad Save the World (1992) though I can't find the scene where they ask the dad how the car / space ship works
