    Purchase Options - HELP!!

    Reviews are more or less useless nowadays. I would just look at the vehicles and make your decision based solely on that.

    Replacing factory radio?

    I have a Kenwood unit in my 2005 red Mustang GT convertible (it is not for sale). It works very well. I really don't do anything with it other than Apple CarPlay. Apple CarPlay takes care of all the needs you mentioned. It also has Satellite Radio that I occasionally use as well.

    Possible tire law limits tire choice

    I have homes in Texas and California. Many of the items I purchase in Texas, Amazon, and others will NOT ship to California because they are forbidden there. Naturally, before I take any of these items from Texas to California, I check with an attorney, local regulators, and the supplier...

    6 CD Changer - Replacement? - SOLVED

    I understand that some people want to keep their cars "factory". Just for your consideration, take a look at replacing the entire Radio with something from Kenwood. That will give you Apple CarPlay. You can import any of your CDs into a Mac and it will automatically synchronize with your iPhone...

    Auto dimming

    For auto dimming to work, the light selector must be in "Auto", I never use that. I always control my lights manually because I don't want my daytime running lights to be on during the day. When you put the headlight switch too "on" you have full manual control of the high-beams.

    Looking to move on from an Excursion

    If you were looking at new, I would encourage you to go with Ford. GM is phasing out Apple CarPlay. Therefore, GM is not in my future. Ford and others have reaffirmed their support for CarPlay. However, I can say I've owned about 10 GM vehicles, several Suburbans, Tahoe's and even a Corvette...

    New to the forum and have a question.

    You are WAY overdue for a new iPhone. Get a new one and your problems will go away.

    Lifetime Chevy Enthusist

    Same here. I've owned about 10 GM vehicles, several Suburban's, Tahoe's and even a Corvette. However, with GM moving away from Apple, I own my LAST GM vehicle, IF they stick with their plans.

    Big upgrade, just got a real AI (Gemini)

    Nothing new here. I've enjoyed those same features going through Apple CarPlay. It offers a hands-free, voice-first conversation mode, allowing you to ask questions, plan trips, or draft communications completely hands-free. You can use ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Grok.

    Whats new on the 2027's ?

    The 2027 model is likely to be the very last one where you'll be able to get Apple CarPlay. It could prove to be valuable, 65% of car buyers will not even CONSIDER a vehicle without Apple CarPlay. Also, the evil engine stop-start is being discontinued. If that is gone from the 2027 model, it...

    2022 Tahoe - center infotainment screen stopped working completely

    I have saved enough money by NOT purchasing an extended warranty to buy several vehicles, including my Tahoe. Perhaps it's the luck of the Irish.

    Are LED Headlight Bulbs Worth Upgrading To? Seeking Real World Advice

    Avoid anything that looks bluish. I put in LED lights once they had a slight blue tint. People were constantly flashing their high-beams at me. Yes, the lights were aimed correctly. I went back to the factory lights, the disco show stopped.
