All you people with your fancy schmancy casettes and cd doohickies and flashy driving things... in my day, if you want music you just sing. No one sings anymore and the world is worse for it I say! I don't have to worry about if my apple or my orange works with my infotechnamajig, I just know my favorites and belt em out when I want some good music. And none of that garbage rock and roll either. The world is a hell in a hand basket these days.
I gotta say, nothing screams old geezer (yes, I'm one too...) quite like using the word "doohickies"!!!
Although, I can't agree with your feelings about my beloved rock n' roll music...

Sarge can also pipe the music from his phone via Bluetooth, that is if he has his music collection on it. If not, convert the CD tracks to MP3s in Windows 7+, put them on the phone, and you're done. The phone should be already paired to the car.

Yeah, that's a good one, too!
Although, my $0.02 is that it doesn't quite scream "get off my lawn" the way doohickes does. 
That's the problem with music in compressed formats like mp3; the sound just isn't as good. If they could find a way to include a turntable so I could play vinyl records while I cruise in my Vette, I'd be thrilled.

You know I was going to point out that the younger drivers just really don't appreciate the ... fidelity... that is found on CD's......
But then I remembered... that the absolutely best sound I ever had was in my 73 Vega GT with the Lear 8 track and the 6x9 boxes in the back playing the Allman Brothers One Way Out.. live at the Fillmore East ... driving back and forth between NYC & DC...

How did you not know that the C7 didn't come with a CD player?
And we might as well cover this now, when you make slow tight parking lot turns, the front tires are going to skip.
