It pretty much has everything except a dang CD Player ! What the heck ??
Sales said nothing does anymore :shock:

Yep, just like the Dodo...

But (probably) lots of USB ports, so music on a thumb drive works. (Or a USB cd player? Haven't tried that ;) ) Or link to your phone, if you have music there.

    I’m not surprised. My Jeep is older but it has a cd player that’s behind the touch screen. You hit the cd button and the face slides down.
    Pretty sad.





    I guess that pay radio stuff is the new thing
    My Jeep has a 40gb hard drive and you can load music on it from cd or usb thumb drive. It’s nice to not have to plug the phone in all the time. I’ve had Xm radio for about 11 years and like it. If you call in each year before it’s auto billed then they will give a better rate if you threaten to cancel. I pay about $80 a year.

    I pretty much just stay on 2 radio stations anyway...just found it odd there is no CD player.
    Not like I have a long drive to work...only 4.1 miles

    Good morning EveryOne :)

    Awesome wheels @classwife !!! :thumbs:

    I would just rip your music CD's to FLAC or MP3 files, pop them on yer phone and stream those via Bluetooth. FLAC is the better option, it's a lossless format and closest to CD audio. There are several options.

    What kind of language is that ?

    :lol:

    I barely use my phone - it's pretty much just an alarm clock.
    I am just now after a couple of years able to answer a call without hanging up on people.
    In other words...I don't know how to use it.

    All this talk of CD players in cars.......... phooey :greengrin:

    My 1995 Toyota Avalon XL still rocks a functioning cassette player. :lol: :lol: I have a cassette with an audio jack that I plug my iPod into. Don't laugh, it works perfectly fine.
    Our newer pickup truck has all the fancy gadgets, I just stream music from my phone through it's sound system.

    Just take your music CD's pop em in your computer and convert the CD's to MP3 or FLAC format. All computers have those options these days. Then transfer the music files over to your phone. I'm 100% certain your phone has an app for playing music. Take your phone to your new gadget filled vehicle, connect it via Bluetooth and stream your music through it's sound system.

    Sounds more complex than it really is. It's pretty easy once you do one or two.

    You can probably find the instructions in your new vehicles user manual (probably on page 732 :greengrin:).

    But......... if you just got out of smartphone basics.......... :lol: :lol:
