Re:

Den of Theives, holy hell, badass movie. Go watch it, thank me later. Gerard Butler plays such a badass mf'r. I remember how badass I thought Law Abiding Citizen was when I watched it, this is on the same level. Edge of seat action through the whole movie.

Headphones / earbuds while driving. Can someone explain to me why people are doing this and if you think it's safe or not?

Perhaps I'm completely oblivious, but WHY would you need to do this? To me, this seems terribly unsafe and I'm the guy doing 80+ on the interstate from on ramp to off ramp.

I agree. I could see, maybe, putting an ear bud in one ear.

Re: Random Thoughts

I use one in my right ear only when I talk on the phone while driving. To listen to music/etc, get a bluetooth dongle, or an fm tuner if no aux port

Re: Random Thoughts

Same here I have one in my right ear. Used to laugh at folks that had the Bluetooth one around their neck but since I started driving the way I drive to work now the only way my phone will pick up is on the dash.

Re: Random Thoughts

Holy ****...maybe I'm just paranoid because I speed, but I need all the outside sensory input I can have when driving. I've HEARD things that caused me to LOOK and see what was about to happen(getting rear ended at a light).

Re: Random Thoughts

Agree, but I feel that having the phone ON my ear vs having a non sealed bud in (the one that comes with the iphone, hard, not fully sealing) is about the exact same
I have never put both in, I want to hear what's out there, as well as what my ride is doing

Re: Random Thoughts

Uuuughhhh...just sounds like a terrible idea. Most of the ones I see doing this already have beat up cars and don't look like vehicles I'd like to drive beside very long. My ****tard radar goes off the charts on those guys.

Re: Random Thoughts

I use a Bluetooth headset in the semi when I'm on the phone. It covers my right ear and the left ear is open to help try and alert me to assholes in Mustangs who think the interstate is a racer track. :flipoff!:

Re: Random Thoughts

As long as the semi's aren't bracket racing one another at 61 and 61.5mph on a 2 lane interstate.....they're safe from race car activities.

I did too. I used to make fun of people to their face about it. then I got into sales and driving, writing notes, holding a phone, and shifting gears it got a little much. so I got a blue tooth ear bud things from LG and they are life savers. plus I use them at my desk to listen to music because apparently metal isn't office friendly music...

What happen to the "rich ass Tony" thread or whatever? This makes you sound like a rich ass downing my dented ass car that I drive back and forth to work.

That car is perfectly fine...I'm talking bout the ones that look like they use it as their weekend derby car and different colored doors/trunklid.

I don't talk on the phone when I drive. I do however text. And by text I mean, "OK GOOGLE" "ding" "SEND TEXT MESSAGE TO TRAVIS FROM AOP" "ok...what would you like to say?" "YOUR GAY" "ok, I got it...do you want to send it?" "****IN SEND IT!!!"

Don't you still have you have an 3.5mm jack and usb port in order to add bluetooth audio to stock head unit? Ones I have found use the power from usb to run the dongle, but the audio still has to input through the 3.5 jack. Looked into this for my Malibu, but just bought an aux cord instead.

Am I "Travis from AOP"? Because I don't live there just a heads up. I come from Cleveland, where the meth is flowing like the rivers of ancient Babylon
