    Yeah, I hear that. A lot is changing for us, and I am not sure how much of it I am okay with.
    Been considering other options....

    Can't wait for this freezing rain tonight. Should make my drive into work great.

    Pickup trucks are great on snow and ice because they have 4x4 right ?

    That's why I left my last shop. They were pulling the collar tighter and tighter cause they weren't getting work in and that means less money in their pocket, so take out frustration on employees

    Yes. 4wd makes you invincible in poor road conditions. You have to be going fast though, helps you skip over the surface of the bad stuff.

    I didn't think it was that bad. At least when I left for the gym at 0445 it was fine, just a little rainy.

    My company pays the same as a vacation day (8 hours even though I work basically a 10 hour shift...) and then I get $15 a day plus mileage (which for me works out to around 18 dollars, lol). So I end up losing for the day, and then losing more on the week since I miss out on the 10+ hours of OT that I'd normally have earned, too.

    Looks like Android Auto will be available on 2020 models. Hopefully I'll be able to get a software update and get it. Don't mind paying for it to get rid of the garbage Entune and keeping everything still OEM.

    Been trying to find a good link with pics and updated info, do you have one? So far if I could just take the power drivers seat and instal it in mine I would be okay. Getting a new system installed right now will have android auto and carplay so I'm good there.

    I know carplay takes a physical piece to update, not sure about AA. BUT you could probably buy the new OEM headunit and make it work? Not sure if anyone would buy the old one though.
