Truman Mobile is also a good source for car computers

I have been running my system over a year now and constantly making new improvements...

HA!
Drivesoft's web page is a mess.
Nothing works!
looks like they forgot to beta-test the page before it's release.

Doesn't instill warm fuzzy feelings for their software...

Don't think I'd trust them with my life...

To be honest the cost would not be accurate... I got some of the equipment from trading computer service for new parts. Working with Truman Mobile I got partial sponsor ship I paid for all the hardware and software and TJ did all the custom programming for the interface. I also did my own install and custom dash display work.

In all I imagine the Computer, software, Alpine components, USB hubs, WIFI, Autotap, Co-Pilot, Wireless stuff to go out and buy it and install you are talking a conservative $3500 but I am sure I am missing all the misc. time and money on things that I bought that I could not use or would not work cost.

FYI if you are planning on doing this to your car make sure you give yourself a extra $500 to $1000 to have to play with so that you won't get stuck into running around with it disabled most of the time waiting to get more money for the unexpected upgrades you might have to do. One last thing two words "USB PORTS"
