    Has anyone else noticed that the new tacos have a recording device? I had a little spare time this morning so I read through the manual in preparation for my new truck. Evidently they come with a recording system that records up to 30 seconds of data.

    That's what the Progressive snapshot and other tools like that plug into. There are also devices that you can use that talk to your phone over Bluetooth (they run about $99).
