Except opening and closing the console lid to fiddle with the phone is a PITA. It's probably not politically correct to make model comparisons here, but why can I stream via Bluetooth on my $25k 2013 Mazda (without tech package) and I can't on this beast. I've got my iPhone mounted in a console bracket on that car right in front of the 12V port for charging if I want and I can just glance down an make station changes (at stop lights) or perform some functions with steering wheel controls or on the touch screen. Which reminds me, if I hook it up in the console using the harness, are there any steering wheel controls that work with it? BTW: I haven't noticed any extraordinary drain on the iPhone battery when streaming audio.
