Introduction
You’re going on a road trip. This isn’t a question – it’s summer and I know you’re gearing up to take the family on that Griswold vacation that will leave you craving anything but fast food and screaming children. Well, I’ve taken four 9-hour car trips in the last 30 days and I’m here to tell you that you want… no, you NEED to get yourself an FM modulator for your vehicle. Off the top of my head I can think of several uses for these products, many of which will revolutionize the way you view taking your music on the road.
