    Is it possible to connect a Bluetooth speaker to the trucks Radio? I don't know if this is a stupid question or not.

    By connecting, I mean pairing.

    I think you'd need some kind of Bluetooth interface. Theoretically, since they both have Bluetooth antennas, they can be paired, but you need something to be "smart" and bridge the connection.

    Unfortunately this is probably going to be more work than its worth based on the required hardware I've been googling. What's your reasoning? The radio on the Taco is just stronger than a portable?

    Honestly, I was just interested to know if it would work.

    The radio is a BT receiver, but does it have the ability to transmit?
