Voice to text is 5/7. Once I figured out I had to wait a half second for it to listen to me. I should check out Spotify doe, I've been using Sirius but with the unlimited data I could switch that up.
We did the family Spotify account, it's $15/mo. I have unlimited data thru T-mobile, but also they don't charge for streaming media, so it's a huge win there. All my music is thru Spotify anymore.
:notbad:

Same price as Google Music. We enjoy it, but there's word that Google's going to screw with it, so we might be forced to Spotify at some point.

Does the automatic upshift to the highest gear possible ASAP like a typical VW or whatever transmission, or is it tuned more like the Mazdas where it'll be reasonable with gear selection?

Air conditioner strength?

How does it take pothole hits?

Always loved the Z71 Colorado.

I don't think it up shifts too quickly, but it does take a bit to get it to downshift sometimes.

A/C can make it Сибирь inside in short order.

It's a :truk: Potholes are :csb:

I run the A/C a few degrees warmer in the :truk: than I did in the MINI, and that's too cold sometimes.

Air conditioner strength is uh...

Takes potholes like a champ, and the automatic is actually pretty awesome. It does adapt to your driving, too.

So far, I'm averaging 20-21 MPG around town. :impressive:

The tough reality is that a good automatic is better than :manuel: for the day-to-day slog.

:manuel: is still more fun for fun, :doe: It's great to have both.
