If you don't want to listen to the whole 1 hour 17 minutes then go to 1.01:52.

TL;DR
another desperate plea for Car Play
Thanks, I refuse to watch even 10 seconds of “influencer” 1 hour long clickbait. I’m sure watching this video is about # 1,933,543,583 on RJ’s list of things to do.

I agree about the influencer thing. Jason is actually a real auto journalist(i.e. early influencer) and has praise and criticism for products.

If it takes only a couple hours to include CarPlay... Sure, by all means, do it and put the issue to bed. It's not like people are asking RJ to sign his soul to the devil. ?

That’s great, I respect that. But I still refuse to spend an hour of my life watching stuff like this, unless it provides factual hard core technical info, not someone’s personal take and opinions.

Cammisa is probably the only bona fide US auto journalist that is actually entertaining (and knows his shit). Not just another talking a-hole.

Hah. I watched the ending part, which was intriguing enough to go ahead and watch the whole thing and just cracked up at 10:35 when the fingers slowly come into frame to straighten the mixer on the table ... then slowly slide away. For some reason that just cracked me up.

Thanks to this community for introducing me to The Carmudgeon Show ... interesting stuff ...

Apple's numbers speak for themselves. Nearly eight in ten new car buyers are ready to say no to a new vehicle if it doesn't offer CarPlay. Google says the adoption of Android Auto is also on the rise, with over 200 million cars on the road running its software. Ferrari is the company that admitted defeat to Android Auto and CarPlay for a simple reason. Everybody has a phone, so investing in dedicated navigation software wouldn't make sense in the long term. If anyone wants to read the whole article..
