Replying to: crkline2 (Apr 24, 2007 3:11 pm) You have some ways around your dislikes... Dislikes: I hate the fact that I cannot change from one CD to another that I have burned to the music box, while driving. I would have to pull over to change the CD. You can use the scroll wheel to scroll through the songs listed, and it will go from one CD to another as you scroll through. Yes, if you have 200 CDs, this can be tiring, but you can choose how the CDs are listed while driving to make that easier, you just can't search for songs, artists, cd titles, etc unless stopped. Yes, it's limited, but not completely disabled. I also stored a number of phone numbers, but I can’t access them all while driving. To go past the first two pages, I would again have to stop. But I could squint at my little cell phone screen, select any number and then place the call. In my mind, this restriction defeats the purpose of loading numbers into the G35. You can add voicetags to all of these stored numbers. You then hit the phone button on your steering wheel and say "Phonedial voicetag" and it dials. No, you cannot dial a number using the touchpad on the navi screen unless stopped, but you can easily dial stored numbers without ever lifting your hand to the screen. Again, limited, but not disabled. Once you get the hang of what's disabled and learn the work-arounds, it's becomes gravy.... and everyone loves gravy.

Replying to: crkline2 (Apr 24, 2007 3:11 pm) My Jukebox (About 20 Cd's so far) scrolls though CD's using the tune knob while driving It's labeled folder, so I guess what they view your CD once it's in...jst like ont he flash card. My jukebox settings are on "Sort by album", and that is the result. When I had it on "Sort by artist", it worked the same..scrolling alphabetically by artist. AS for the navi lockouts when driving...the voice commands work pretty good...I've yet to try a voicetag on a phone # (Ala acura), but that would prob work well. The voice recognition is worlds ahead of my 04TL. Since we have a CF card slot (Best buy has 2 gig cards on sale this week), I would imagine you can flash this feature out with a future hack using this slot. Girlfriend's josh stone CD (Very new) is also not in the loaded CDDB....I'm guessing we'll be flahsing those to update as well. Note that the jukebox can rip using either cd-text, or the cddb..I've had to use that feature twice so far.

This car seems to have a much larger reserve than my maxima had. My experience has been when the mileage indicator goes to 0 miles to empty it only takes 17.5 gals to fill it up. Last weekend I drove another 20 miles past this and still only put 18 gallons in; the gauge was sitting so far below E that I could see the entire empty line. My old maxima would have been bone dry at this point.

I have a new 2007 G 35 MT6 coupe with only 3115 miles on it. It has used or burned just about a quart of oil in this little time span ( Oct 2006 until now April 2007 )is this normal for these cars because my other cars when purchased NEW, like the G35 never used oil at all.I`m starting to have second thoughts about the car.I`m close to retirement age, so I`m not out to race or beat the car. Any advice or wisdom will be appreciated. july349  comcast.net
