    So far I've been happiest with a Stilleto 2, the other versions didn't deal as well with the vibration of the truck or my motorcycle, and the electrical connections wore out every 6 months or so. But no matter what the promo material says, it isn't worth even trying to get a signal unless you have an antenna hooked up, the POS headphone/antenna isn't worth taking out of the bag.

    Get one that you can pause, rewind, and fast forward.

    I have a Stilleto 10 that goes from my Columbia, to my minivan, to my house for the last 5 years or so. No worries, and only one subscription fee. I use the suction cup mount, so it takes less than a minute to change it out. I bought 2 magnetic mount antennas that stay on the vehicles for about $10 each. They are discontinued, but they have comparable units.

    I have the boombox so I don't have to worry about finding a station on my raido every few minutes
