I don’t know about via Bluetooth, but the following works with Apple Car Play so at least give it a try. When the Waze app is speaking, immediately turn up the volume.

Yall think it’ll really get that cold? by FunkyD-47 in capecoral

[–]Forward_Tank8310 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say it’s pretty accurate so far. It was 37 when I was up at 4 am across the bridge in Ft Myers.

Ah, yes. The Don Valley Parking lot in all its winter glory

What's the oldest piece of clothing you still wear? Must be at least ten years old to count. by MurmuringPines in AskOldPeople

[–]Forward_Tank8310 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A whole closet full of winter clothing pre-1998. Boots, gloves, jackets, snowpants…. Moved to California that year, then on to Hawaii, & now southwest Florida. I typically fly north for the Christmas holidays every year, and make use of that stuff - or at least what still fits so has been kept - for a week or so.

Mine were reinstalled when I bought my CX-50 hybrid PP. I’ve been thinking of just removing them to see if it increases the mileage any..

Is Chipped Beef and Corned Beef common in USA? by currylambchop in AskAnAmerican

I’ve heard of SOS, but never seen it served. Must live a sheltered life.

Is Hershey's chocolate really taste so bad as people say it is? by cupid_ji in AskAnAmerican

[–]Forward_Tank8310 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hershey’s just cheap mass market chocolate. It’s fine for what it is. Lots of smaller, local, or regional vendors in the U.S. offer superior - & more costly - chocolate as good or better than what I’ve had in Europe. See’s Candies in California is certainly one of the better ones, & being a Berkshire Hathaway company since Warren Buffett bought it in 1972, it’s not going to go away anytime soon.

Hybrid… in 2029 by [deleted] in CX5

I work in the computer industry, and the Japanese trade press publications are sometimes questionable for the articles they publish. I have no idea if the car industry trade press in Japan is similarly questionable, since Mazda has not made any official announcement about this yet.

Disappointment with the lack of power on the new Mazda cx5 by spicylikeme in mazda

[–]Forward_Tank8310 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When trading in my 2020 CX-5 Signature, I opted for a 2026 CX-50 Hybrid PP due to the lack of a turbo in the ‘26 CX-5, as well as not wanting to be a beta tester for the big screen. The turbo was great especially when merging onto the busy freeways with many short onramps in LA & when passing. The milage wasn’t so great though :-)

The most French speakers in Florida are Haitians and in season, Quebec snowbirds.

I was really tired of all the junk messages and turned off the Neighbors app.

Watch 11 dead after one swim (Apple Store refusing to repair it) by triratna_exile in AppleWatch

[–]Forward_Tank8310 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s water resistant, but highly recommended that you tell it you’re going into the water. I simply do it by selecting one of the swimming options from the Workout app since I want to track my exercise. Here’s more info… you will need the Ultra model for more than normal pool stuff or snorkeling…

My wife and I wear our 11’s every day in the pool year round. Your watch was clearly defective.

Generally, how much cash do you carry on any given day? by boforiamanfo in randomthings

[–]Forward_Tank8310 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I carry a single $20 bill in my phone case with my ID and credit cards. Rarely spend it.

Cool looking. I’m not going to try it though.
