So that's where I'm "coming from". When you explained why you liked downloading to a PC, it made great sense, once I learned what kind of capabilities that your car's audio system has. I wonder what kind of issues that you will have when USB becomes obsolete, though.
(Sometime, when it's relevant, I'll tell you all about the two antique vehicles that I own. I am almost certain that even an AM radio was not available in the older vehicle. The other vehicle had a radio (probably AM only) as an option. It used vacuum tubes.). |
I have a 1993 S10 Pickup. The Am/FM Cassette Radio died and both original and a digital copy of the radio is over $400.00. I put in a Pioneer SPH-10BT. It has a built in dock that holds your phone and it holds mine with an otterbox case. You install the Pioneer Connect app on your phone and your phone now displays all of the radio information. It has GPS through Waze or Google Maps, hands free calling and all of the music apps on my phone, including Sirius/XM. The only thing it does not have is an Aux Port.
