    I pretty much listen to the engine and drive gear these days.
    A sports car might be a tad more entertaining.
    I do have an ipod still that can hold a couple hours of music but even with that I get tired of listening to the same old after a while.
    Forgetting to charge it and having to reload it gets lame after a while.

    It was/is a smaller one. Older. Plus I ripped my own CD for decent quality to listen with headphones as well. ipod a1421 from 2012. Pretty sure it's just 16 gb. It still works, I just haven't charged it for a while. I think I had about 30 CDs on it. So, half a day ? You can fit a lot more with crappier file sizes but they sound like chit with good headphones.

    My little 3-series will let me load a bunch of music onto the car. Like a built-in iPod/MP3 player. Good for when the weather doesn't allow for rolling the windows down I guess!

    Man you traded the OBS Chevy and wood burning life for suburbs and BMWs! Huge lifestyle change!

    And to add to that a HUGE change of scenery, from upstate NY , to down here in Upstate SC!

    Change of scenery, :rofl: :lol:, it's closer than one might think, just a LOT more traffic. I have cows for neighbors still. ;)

    Greenville traffic and congested parking lots necessitated something a lot more nimble than the Chevy. Right tool for the job! The Bimmer is older (2011) and needs slightly less wrench time than a Husky. :p

    Still have my 2013 Silverado, but it spends a LOT more time in the driveway. The OBS C3500 I gave to a local kid who loves it as much as I did. Just got new cab mounts and he's looking to do some more body work soon.
