Facts: Factory Navigation Owners and Their Use of Portable Devices



The debate of whether factory OE navigation is better than portable navigation devises or vice versa is ongoing. Studies show that many Americans that routinely use these factory installed navigation units also use a portable GPS device or a smartphone with a GPS application. For example, J.D. Power and Associates performed a study that revealed 40% of Americans use both GPS devices and factory installed navigation units. While 32% of Americans prefer only to use a portable device such as a hand held or dash mounted GPS unit, the other 28% prefer to use their smartphone application. There really is no clear choice on which is better based on the fact that these numbers are constantly changing due to technological advancements.

How to Choose the Right Car Remote Starter?

Remote starts are innovative gadgets that help car owners warm or cool their cars before actually getting in the car. Mother Nature can be ruthless at times and can bring about extremely cold or extremely hot weather conditions in a particular area. In such conditions, going about day to day activities can be a headache. Our beloved machines especially cars are usually affected by the harsh weather conditions.
In extremely cold conditions, it is usually pretty difficult to start our cars properly. This is because the oil in the engine is not as viscous as it should be. This state usually does a lot of harm to our car engines since lubrication in the engine system is quite poor. Extremely hot weather conditions on the other hand are not at all heart-warming as they make it uncomfortable to get in the car. With the help of the remote start, you can avoid all this. 
If your car did not come with a remote start, there is no need to worry. You can purchase the remote starts as an aftermarket accessory. When purchasing the car remote start as an aftermarket accessory, there are a number of things that you need to take into consideration before actually getting the remote starter.
