Nothing to do with Apples latest iOS update though LOL.
I do very much miss the ability to install a very nice stereo system in the older cars...Today's cars integrate everything through the factory system making it difficult and very expensive to put in a good system. I hate being forced by the manufacturer to live with crappy factory systems, which cost far more than they are worth, or spending a bundle on connectors to keep controls and systems that have nothing or little to do with the audio system plus having to spend a lot on a "face" to replace the crazy fascia the factories insist on shoving down our throats...sigh...rant over...back to you...

Yea, it's a bit off subject, but I don't disagree with you. I just recently bought a Honda Pilot and while the factory system has some very nice built in features and works well enough, I would have preferred CarPlay. In theory, Honda can release a firmwear update that will add CarPlay since they support it for a few cars and will be adding it to the Pilot in a few years, but I doubt that will happen. For all my previous cars, I got the base radio and replaced it with a better 3rd party stereo system.
