No stereo is a bit spartan, but definitely a move in the right direction regardless. I want one.
I'd be surprised if people couldn't put in a simple and cheap aftermarket deck and a couple speakers, which would only be around a couple hundo. If these things are easy to work on so you can install it yourself, even better.
I had a truck without a working stereo so I just used some Bluetooth speakers
They absolutely are intending to provide aftermarket parts
Hopefully they've provided cutouts for speakers and a head unit so that they don't look like my old squarebody with 6x9's cut into the doors.
Hell yeah
Standard DIN stereo slot, heat, and AC, and id buy it in a heartbeat.
Same! This is 100% on my radar now.
You don’t even need a stereo. Bluetooth amp and a phone/tablet holder.
Id prefer to at least have the slot for one as an option. I grew up with professional aftermarket sound systems in cars (thanks for the tinnitus, dad) so it just wouldn't feel right to me.
That and android auto. There's nice options for head units with screens last i looked.
Seems built In speakers will be optional
I have a stereo in mine. Has BT. I still usually just roll with ear buds. Lol.
I don't care at all I almost prefer that. I have a Bluetooth headset I wear 90 percent of the time anyways.
You should not be wearing anything in or on your ears while driving.
The rise of headphones that allow you to hear the outside world while wearing them is gunna make that law obsolete
it's really not though. it's way easier to just not put on headphones than it is to put on headphones and prove you had them in pass through sound mode
I think they meant open ear style headphones / earbuds, not closed ear ones with pass-through function.
Personally, despite having a pair of those, and they are great, I still prefer using the car's speakers while driving, but that's me.
then i'm confused because those aren't new. those are the oldest designs on the market
You're right, but those old ones kinda suck. Recently, they figured how to make them sound good. Example: Bose Ultra Open Earbuds, but every major brand has some
You make it seem like someone would put on their headphones just for the ride. They would have them on already before hand. And they would keep them on afterwards.
Especially in a vehicle that doesn't have a radio
why would we make driving rules surrounding that exactly one vehicle doesn't have speakers and some headphones have passthrough?
Yes, cause we know for the rest of history this will be the ONLY car that does this. Technology never follows through with removing stuff like other have.
On a side note, how's your headphone jack doing on your phone?
Make sure you say that to the cop while he writes your ticket
You know whats crazy? I've been practicing a lot recently, and I can take off my headphones in less than a minute. I know that's absolutely insane and kinda unbelievable, but it's true. Maybe one day it'll even be so easy it only takes a fraction of a second to take them out.
One can only hope!!
Relax I use aftershocks bone conducting headsets.
Motorcycle riders wear ear protection for wind noise.
completely different scenario. real apples to cats comparison
Understood, it kind of popped in my mind and I missed overall context.
Riders can hear better than people in cars even with earpro though.
