Question : Multiple radio button (2 groups) popup options with Powershell

I need help with a powershell script. I am missing 2 features that I cannot figure how to write. On 1 popup form, I'd like (using radio buttons) two sets of choices and have them spit out 2 variables. Like this:

Choice 1:
Blue
Green
Red

Choice 2:
Car
Truck
Motorcycle

Results:
Blue Car

My code below will create 1 set of options, now how do I create a second set? Finally, I'd also like to have a default options radio button selected, any help? Like set the default radio to Car & blue?

Answer : Multiple radio button (2 groups) popup options with Powershell

Please bare with me as I am very new to Powershell, & Scripting in General, but It looks like I have found what I am looking for. It was Groupbox. Please review my code below and tell me where I may make improvements, but this is exactly what I was looking for.
