After much debate, I bought myself one of these bad boys. Nothing improves performance (superchargers, exhaust upgrades, bah!) like a good radar detector. This one will get a stress test soon, hopefully it'll deliver.
I also picked up a small DVD player (component, progressive, mp3/vcd/jpg/dvd+-rw) for $45. Amazing. The plan is to hook it up to a couple of handheld TV's for my kids to watch movies on long trips. It fits perfectly under the X5's rear armrest.
I also loaded up the Sportrak Pro with maps for the upcoming trip. In the process, I discovered Magellan has announced a new product that'll let my tiny GPS do routing, though they want $150 for the maps. I've already been bitten before, so I'll wait away before buying it, if I ever do.
