I dislike that woman announcing directions over my MP3 music....oh, the GPS annoys also...

 

I turn the audio off...i hate it when they tell me they are "Recalculating"... when I bail off route to some adventure.

I glance at the GPS as I do oil pressure and speed. I can read it as it says turn left in 3 miles.

 

I'm the same way, all the technology in the world and they can't figure out you want to make a pit stop...lol

I guess the issue was resolved for me, apparently the tray option won't work because it won't accommodate my iPhone in a case, so USB in the back it is.

I'm a look at the map guy too. I dont like that woman telling me where to go all the time. The GPS either

 

Same here. Have a Bluetooth earpiece, but seldom use it.

 

I plug mine into the aux port on the HK radio. I listen to the prompts, but also look at the map. It sometimes is extremely difficult to just listen only. You will get a voice prompt that says "bear right" on some road. You look at the map and the road is straight. Also, the wonderful "turn right then turn right" voice prompt can be a little confusing. Looking at the map helps. The voice prompts also let you know when you are close to a turn. It can take some getting used to.

 

I listen to voice instructions and verify by looking at the map. If I'm just out cruising with no particular destination I just use the map.

 

We have a bluetooth intercom, although I have never tried to tie it in to the gps. Mrs B can see it over my shoulder, so I get a running commentary when necessary! V effective.....

 

Try one of those clear stick-on shields. They filter UV + make the screen much easier to see in direct sunlight.
