the 30+ gigs of my favorite music on my iPhone, ranging from Aaron
Neville to Wynton Marsalis, with thousands of alphabetical stops in
between, including the Dillards. I think but I am not sure that the
truck sound system will also play, via bluetooth, my favorite internet
radio stations, which are also non-commercial. Haven't tried that yet.
Bluetooth from the radio on the phone should work. I will suggest that
you see about putting your favorite music right into the truck system.
You should be able to break it out into different play lists to make
that more manageable. ~6,000 songs may be great for bragging rights
but it is not very user friendly.
If you are linked to he phone, it will still mute/stop the playback
while you are on the phone. It can also read your texts to you and it
can let you voice to text back if it is like the Samsung to Lincoln
connection my wife has.
It does do two-way texts...learned that by accident. I'm really taking
it slow with the technology, since it has been a while since I drove a
truck, and though I've had pickups before, this one is pretty big and
coupled with the six speed manual, driving it properly requires a bit of
attention.
I have had a stick all of my life. It is second nature to me.
I will say, you will find yourself doing the "cabbie speed shift"
after a while, skipping 3 of those six speeds unless you are hauling a
trailer or something.
I end up using all 5 in my Prelude but not in order.
