Which is why they came up with Carplay and Android Auto about five years ago. I tried the AA thing with an inactive phone, made up a burner Goolag account, downloaded a bunch of offline maps, and... AA wouldn't let me type in an address, you're supposed to talk to it. But you can't talk to it

The update isn’t a big deal. I’ve got it on a CD that you load up and let it do it’s voodoo. I can mail you a copy if you want, drop me a note off list if you do. -D > On Nov 15, 2019, at 12:18 PM, Floyd Thursby via Mercedes > wrote: > > This guy > >
