My rental has XM radio... I wish I had that. I think my Cavalier has it built in to the radio but I don't wanna pay for it.

I don't know how I would make it through the morning without Preston & Steve.

im not in the car long enough to enjoy p&s in the morning. at night is where it counts most and most of the djs and their music selection sucks. not only that but theres usually 2 stations playing the same ****ing song at the same time. really? are they that uncreative? it just shows you how lazy they are and it pisses me off to no end

[lownslow95]

Yeah, I don't listen to the radio at night because they play music that I have heard over and over again. I just put my iPod on shuffle and forget about it if I'm driving in my car.

I totally forgot about my mp3 yesterday on the way home to work. I was listening to radio I'm like ok music is getting old, oh here's my mp3, lets plug it in and I'm like here we go.

I got a free 1/4" ratchet wrench keychain from GearWrench.

I got all excited when I saw I could plug my iPod into the USB port in this rental.. and then all of the songs started playing at random, with random 4 letter names like GXLP in random folders. Seems to be no apparent order. Looked it up and apparently you have to buy a $38 cord from Hyundai to make it work with the proper song titles

[jpalamar]

^ Hyundai... Hey, atleast it isn't a Toyota!

That should be there new slogan.

[Scapegoat]

the stang will accept any USB device. i currently have an 8gig thumb drive in there. i want to play around with getting an external solid state HD when the prices drop from the hundreds of dollars range...

those names are actually what they are called when they are saved on your ipod. If you ever browse your ipod like a hard drive that what you find.

it doesn't get me head though... oooh wait... nevermind!

it's actually pretty sweet. the electronics in it are nice. and as much as i dislike having a microsoft system in the car, the sync is nice to have. i also just noticed that i can lock my arm rest that holds all the usb and stereo jack

maybe thats why he loves driving it so much, cause it can do, everything

Everything I keep reading says the 540 can play mp3 cd's. I'll have to explore this further because the first time I tried it, it didn't work.

Ken I actually use a 40gb 2.5" laptop drive in the m3 and it works perfectly. I'd save solid state for high performance desktop computing. Seems wasted in the car accessing mp3's.

Really? That's weird. But yeah, it plays, just completely out of order and I have no idea what's coming next lol

I wouldn't spend that kinda money for a car HD either.

[grimm]

yup. i found this out when i would grab music off peoples ipods before they made software to do it, and thats what i would get. when importing them back into my itunes they would rename them back to the right song titles. I found it to be odd as well but i didn't really care. But like you said you have no way of knowing what the songs are before hand. if you have a playlist they should play in order still?

[DPancoast]

i cant wait to have my car back. It haz ipod hookup lol.

too lazy to put my spare head unit in the jeep
