And no buyers
Hell yes, take my money. As long as it's not a limit and manages to keep its range and I can get parts fuck yes
You know, I like the design. If I can take a wrench to it and customise it or repair broken stuff easily and for cheap, even better.
The range is kinda meh, but for working in remote sites, bringing a diesel generator is already par for the course, and that bed looks like it fits a lot of stuff.
No stereo sucks though.
I often drive long distances for work, and I NEVER listen to the radio. All my listening is through headphones off my phone. I even keep a spare pair charging at all times. Not only does it sound a million times better than any crappy car system, it's far easier to take phone calls. I hate holding my phone while driving. It's also easier to hear the map navigation lady.
This is unsafe at best. Illegal at worst.
Nonsense, how is it either?
Too loud? I'm a musician, I value my hearing, so I don't play anything too loud. I always use earbuds, so I can always hear emergency vehicles. Besides, I've heard plenty of car speaker systems that were loud enough to block out sirens easily.
Illegal? In what way? In states that have banned holding phones, they encourage hands-free phone calls. If speaking on the phone is considered a distraction, then why isn't speaking to another passenger, or listening to music? Both would be just as distracting as a hands free call. Modern cars all connect to a cell phone automatically, and take calls through the speaker system. If it's illegal, then why are car companies allowed to install them as standard equipment? I don't use that system only because I like the audio quality of my ear buds far more.
By your logic, sound systems and phones in cars should just be totally illegal.
It's often illegal to have headphones on both ears.
I don't know why you're trying to claim it shouldn't be illegal to a random internet stranger. Most things that are illegal shouldn't be, but the HOA types that care about rules are also the ones who want to fuck rules so bad they get into positions of power. So if you want to fix it, go be a rule fucker. Or Luigi the rule fuckers.
It's a lot easier to block out emergency sirens at normal volume levels vs the stereo where you have to have already lost your hearing before it's loud enough to block a siren. The counterpoint to this is when the siren is actually in the music, which is why I don't listen to certain rap while driving anymore.
I'd build a mount for my DeWalt speaker that I'm already taking to my job sites who cares about a stereo
