He offered to put them on for me at the hobby shop or at my driveway
It pays to take care of your service advisors and techs.

 
I do that all the time. When I take my car in for service, I just tell the service advisor to do it on the side, which turns out to be a lot cheaper.

that is fine. the question is how good of a voice recognition system is it?
 
I have the voice activated dialing on my cellphone and it takes 3 or 4 times for it to understand who I am trying to call. Very hard if the car is going on a rough road or wind noise.

The VRS is outstanding, you don't have train it and it understands English, Spanish, and Canadian French.

Okay, I gotta ask .. what's the difference between Canadian French and French French?
 
"Oui, eh, hoser"?
 
(apparently, I've got too much time on my hands this Friday afternoon)
 
Hope y'all are able to close the month strong!

It sounds better than the Jag system. We had a trainer here with a new car last week and I tried it out. The English woman kept saying "sorry", everytime I gave it a command.

And you expected to hear what? You know you can't give them commands, you can only request...

I rarely have problems with the Land Rover VRS and it should be about the same as your jag system.
 
Did you have it set to American Male?

This was on the new XF, it was a preproduction car. I expect the ones we get will be much better because I never have trouble with the VRS we install now.

March 10th is the on sale date but we may have them earlier. It is a very cool car, It looks better in person.
