I've got a Dice Mediabridge plugged in place of the CD changer in my M3 for bluetooth support. Works great, and was cheap.
Sounds like you need a self-driving car.
You already have a fully autonomous car, don't you?
My list of things I'd like for my next car:
1) Fully autonomous (so I can nap or fap on the way to work)
2) Me not owning it

I don't want a person driving - have you taken Uber much? Those drivers suck at driving as much as plain ol' everyday people.
Oh, wait - that's because that's what they are!
I can usually rub one out and steer with my knees, unless I have a helper. Bonus points if she is wearing a maids outfit.Sounds like you need a self-driving car.

I let Jesus take the wheel.You already have a fully autonomous car, don't you?
I'm with you on most of this. I think adaptive cruise control would be nice. The only time I got a speeding ticket is when I tried to pass a guy who was going 2 km/h slower than I was, just caus' it was annoying to catch up to him ever so slowly...
Shifting my own gears is going to be the biggest thing I will miss when I eventually get an electric vehicle. It'll probably be the only thing I will miss when i get an EV.
May as well get a hooker and just go at it. If you got a tesla, you can get a hooker.
And a good one too. Not that $5 gutter trash that @Westy keeps having to bury in his crawl space.
Things I value in cars:
- full speed/stop and go adaptive cruise control
- CarPlay/Android Auto
- clean interface for common tasks (eg turning on heated wheel) and auto climate control
- 2” hitch for my T2
- ski pass through and Nokians for the winter
- doesn’t sound like a buzzing piece of crap (4 bangers with CVTs come to mind)

I have an old F150. It caries bikes and goes through dirt and snow. Sometimes one of the windows doesn't work good and the stereo never works.
My criteria for my next vehicle is that it caries bikes and goes through dirt and snow and both the windows work good and the stereo works.
What is all this wizardry you are talking about?

surprised the state of California has not come and taken your vehicle
You have no idea.Man... I don't want to tell you what to do... but I sure wouldn't let that hippie drive.
Thank Myself for being outside of space and time. I can't even count how many telephone poles I've had to make never exist before/after it was too late.
I love the SiriusXM in my Subaru. It's exposed me to a lot of a music I otherwise would not have heard on FM radio and I've downloaded a lot of songs because of it. I was a subscriber before cars started including it though.
Besides that though, yeah, I don't need a lot of electronics in my car. Mine has all sorts of data and apps in that dashboard computer that I'll never look at or use. The car is always fucking yelling at me too with that friggin "Eyesight" feature. I bought my Outback fully loaded because it was all or nothing with the 6 cylinder and I wanted the sunroof and leather.

mmmmmm, monocle lesbaru
I believe those are called escorts.
I did have a bitch of a time getting smogged this year due to an evap system leak that I didn't know about since the check engine light had burned out.
Why own a truck, when the biggest thing that I carry on a regular basis are bikes. My bikes all fit in the back of my car without issue. This car is tiny, yet last fall I still managed a road trip where I carried the bike on the rack, camping stuff and a cooler in the back and I ended up sleeping in the back of the car.
When I had the Mazda three hatchback, we somehow fit myself and two +6' dudes in it, two DH bikes on the back and one DH bike and all the clothing and gear for three adults inside the cabin. It was tight, but a lot of these hatchbacks and wagons have as much if not more than some "SUVs" that are floating around these days.
When I do need a truck, there are plenty of friends that have them with pristine and unused beds. Why pay for the truck and the gas, when someone else will for you?
quite easily actually.
there's things called "moving companies". because a lot of people have neither the time or patience to move a house full of shit.
you know that trucks can be rented right? there's also delivery, wherein a company or person(s) WITH a truck can be consigned to deliver said larger than trunk item.
JBP, I know I'll get ordered off your lawn for this but.... Yer starting to sound just like Toshi.
For over-analyzing things?
as
as long as he doesn't start sounding like syadasti
You should try out Spotify - same thing except you get to take it EVERYWHERE, including your car.
Dude. Junkyard actually owns a junkyard. His view is... biased.
I dont have the time or patience to ask people for help or trust people to move my stuff. I just know other people that are homeowners and they are constantly needing help getting something or getting rid of something. I tell em to get a truck of their own and dont help because i dont have time.
But im on a different life plan than some people, not better or worse, just different and we dont always understand each other. Thats ok.
Sounds like you need a truck.
Sounds like he needs a junkyard rental truck fleet.Sounds like you need a truck.
