Who still has a CD player/tape deck in their car?

I got a 2017 Ram truck recently, and when I went to put in a CD, I realized that it didn't have a media slot.

I can Bluetooth everything, or USB, but I thought it was interesting that there wasn't a way to put anything physical into the car.

I read on-line that a lot of manufacturers are doing that, since it's cheaper and easier to leave them out, and it's easier to design the center console without them.

My car has a single CD player that then downloads the music into the "hard drive" (or whatever you call it)

We have a ‘72 Dart with an aftermarket CD player.

We had a 2006 Subaru until a few weeks ago...it was totaled. That had a CD player in it.

We just got a 2019 Jeep and it’s so new that I don’t even know if it has a CD player haha...I’ve only been in it twice!

We have a 2017 Durango and no CD player. It never crossed my mind to ask if it came with one, until I went to play a CD.

Same thing with my husband's 2015 Charger, I was so shocked there was no CD player.

I kind of feel like CD's are getting obsolete though no?
With downloads, pandora, etc- no?

I have no idea. I don’t think so. We have a 2017 explorer and a 2018 Mazda cx 5.

GoldenRod, were you alone in the car when you were trying to jam a cd into the dash?!

That's why they aren't putting them in a lot of vehicles. Even with the library, you can download virtual books or audio books over the Internet.

Now that I know, I don't mind not having the player. It was just a bit of a surprise when I first figured it out... Chat Icon

Yeah.... it took a few seconds to realize I probably didn't have a player Chat Icon , so I went on-line and found out that it's getting more common.

I have a 2009 car so there is a CD player. I'll be disappointed not to have a CD player in my next car. I like to take CD's out of the library and pop them right in without having to upload them to my computer and transfer to my phone and all that. Sometimes i just want to hear a song or album and not have it taking up space on my phone.

With the library app, you don't need a PC at all. I browse, check in and out, and play audio books and e-books from the library just using my phone. It's so much easier than having to go to the physical library to check out CDs.

You can also stream, so you don't need to take any space on your phone.

Hmm I’m not sure if we have this in Nassau. I work in a library so I should probably know. Lol. Sounds cool though, I’m going to find out.

2016 Highlander - It has a CD player

My last truck, Rav4, had a 6 disc CD player. I actually miss it. I liked having a bunch of favorite CDs loaded and ready, sometimes I don't feel like dealing with the streaming stuff. Chat Icon

My 2016 has one but it has a DVD player for the kids so maybe that’s why it has one I don’t remember the last time I bought a cd though.
