Listening to the radio is SO 1999.
Why waste your precious time listening to obnoxious advertisements or mindless chatter by DJs when you can carefully select and play all of your favorite songs/podcasts?
Now, you can with the iTrip Auto FM Transmitter and Car Charger for iPod and iPhone ($59.99-$69.99) by Griffin Technology. It plays your music in crystal clear quality, thanks to the SmartScan technology that automatically searches for the best station for you (my husband says to point out that he wouldn’t recommend buying an FM transmitter that lacks this important feature – it’s super convenient.). As an added bonus, you can use the same device to charge your iPhone or iPod.
The iTrip Auto is a fantastic gift option for music-lovin’ and road trippin’ daddies.
YOUR TURN: What songs/tunes would YOU be listening to in the car if you had the iTrip Auto?
WIN IT! One winner will receive an iTrip Auto FM Transmitter and Car Charger for iPod and iPhone ($59.99-$69.99) by Griffin Technology ($59.99-$69.99). To enter, leave any topic-related comment on this post prior to Monday, June 8 at midnight (Don’t forget to follow the rules…all generic comments like “Enter me!,” “Love it,” and “Cool stuff!” will be disqualified.).
*UPDATE* The winner is #69 shannon Baas. Congratulations!

June 8, 2009 at 2:46 pmI would love this one! I bought the $99 DLO transock and while it works OK it’s a it wonky (technical term). It forgets if it’s supposed to transmit in stereo or mono and what the preset stations are, oh and did I mention that the first time I tried it it fit so tight in the 12v recepticle it pulled it rough out of my dashboard!!

June 7, 2009 at 11:22 amMan, I’d love a new FM Transmitter. Mine works on AAA’s, burns through them like napalm on butter (sounds… Delicious!), and the signal is weak enough for any poser in a parka to override my music. I just want to listen to some Jonathan Coulton, but everyone else wants to listen to either some kinda terrible country, or some death metal band that has too many consonants in the name.

June 5, 2009 at 5:46 pmIt’s sad, really- DH and I each have an iPod, yet somehow we’ve never gotten around to getting input jacks for them in our cars! This looks like a great solution- and the feature that finds the best station is a must in a metropolitan area where the airwaves are pretty crowded.

June 5, 2009 at 7:47 amiTrip Auto is now available in two versions – the original iPod-only model, and a new iPhone-compatible version. Just pick which one you need when you click “Buy Now.”
I like that it’s in mp3 not just ipod now.

June 2, 2009 at 6:23 pmThis is so cool and my husband would love it. He literally will not get into the car without his ipod. Even for a short jaunt to the corner store. We’re a little old school because we currently have the tape deck you have to put in and run and connect to your ipod, but hey, it works for now. :)

June 2, 2009 at 4:07 pmWe are going on a road trip this summer (Texas to North Carolina) and this would be just great! Our boys have ipods with 1000s of songs, so we would never have to hear the same song twice.

June 2, 2009 at 2:04 pmYep this has my husband ALL over it. He has one of the truck and loves it, uses it daily actually. It has a huge crack in it from all the use. He was just saying how he’d love to get one for the van since we take a lot of family rides. I’d love to surprise him with this.

June 2, 2009 at 9:41 amHow timely! We were just discussing taking a road trip this summer, and this would be perfect.
Lately my kiddo has been demanding the Ting Tings and MGMT whenever we’re in the car, so we’d probably be listening to that or to whatever NPR station the iTrip found for us!

June 1, 2009 at 1:56 pmMy husband takes a van pool to work and usually sleeps with his iPod on. But, we’re thinking of taking a road trip this summer so we’d need a mix of music we could all listen to. I have everything from country to rap on my iPod. Whoever drives chooses the music and my husband always offers to drive on long car trips!

June 1, 2009 at 1:03 pmMy husband would love this for Father’s Day – he’s always got music playing. He’s even got our 2.5-year-old requesting Bruce Springsteen songs (but only after a good dose of Laurie Berkner) :)

Jill says
June 1, 2009 at 10:07 amWhat songs would I be listening to on a road trip…. probably a little bit of The Wiggles, some fun Veggie Tales songs, The Happy Feet soundtrack, and Sugarland! Yes, I do have a 2 1/2 year old and I will admit to enjoying some of the music myself (hee)! Otherwise, we would be listening to an un-happy toddler!

Ashley says
June 1, 2009 at 10:01 amI would’ve loved to have one this past weekend. We went to San Diego and my kiddos kept asking every few miles, “ARE WE THERE YET”? Driving to San Diego from Arizona is NOT a very fun drive and the radio stations are not so great. This would be great to have when we drive to Michigan in the fall!

May 31, 2009 at 2:18 pmIn Gunnison we only get about 5 radio stations so more music is ALWAYS needed. My husband would love to be able to plug in his Ipod as he drives around town – especially when we go out of town. The only thing about giving him the Ipod during the day is what am I going to run to on my lunch break?

May 30, 2009 at 10:10 pmHmm, other than kids’ music? LOL I actually listen more to podcasts on my iPhone than music when I’m in the car by myself. I’m so way behind on all of my favorite shows and that’s one of the few times I get a chance to catch up some! :)

May 30, 2009 at 10:04 pmI actually *just* got an iPod for my husband for Father’s Day. We’ve been a little behind the times…I asked my friend about how to use one in the car, since my husband can’t drive without music, and learned about this nifty device. This is on the list for a birthday or Christmas gift. I can’t believe that we haven’t gotten an iPod before, because my husband is a musician, loves music, and has TONS of it on CD. I gave it to him early, and he is LOVING it.

May 30, 2009 at 11:35 amThis would be AWESOME to win! My hubby and I are getting our very first iPods in the mail … would have been today, if we had been home when the mail came, but we have to pick them up on monday (*sob* – so tired of waiting!). Our current vehicle is on the older side, for sure, and doesn’t have a convenient little plug for mp3 players. And its CD player is broken enough that we’ve given up on playing CDs in the car… so this would be a SUPER nice thing to have – take our music on the road with is! I love the features it has, with the auto-search and the ability to charge. Perfect!!
And hey … it’s my birthday next week, so it would be a great time for me to win something from you finally, don’tcha think?? :)

May 30, 2009 at 11:14 amI was just thinking yesterday that I was going to have to burn a bunch of CD’s for our road trip in June. We are driving from Nebraska to Kentucky. With this 2 kiddies….yeah. I’m kinda nervous! Thankfully, my children love music and we listen to everything. Right now I’m jiving to the Twilight Soundtrack. Some more of my favorites are Trans Siberian Orchestra (it’s Christmas music, but I listen year round!), Wicked Soundtrack (my 21 month old LOVES Broadway tunes!), anything from the Beatles, Tori Amos, and Jack Johnson.
This would also be great to listen to podcasts with! So often I’d rather listen to them in the car, yet I can’t drive with earbuds in. There are so many great podcasts out there!

May 30, 2009 at 10:02 amI have a “favorites” playlist on my iPod, as well as a “Sunday, Bloody Sunday” playlist with the songs I’ll be singing the next Sunday. I have a plug in my car that lets me play it through the radio, but it doesn’t have a charger on it; the battery runs down pretty fast sometimes! I’d love to have the iTrip so that I can charge while I play. Thanks!

May 30, 2009 at 10:00 amWhat a grand Father’s Day gift! My husband travels by car for his job and spends way too many hours in his vehicle. I know that he listens to “The Decemberists”, “Third Eye Blind” and “Rancid!”
I would very much appreciate my name being entered
in your delightful drawing. Many thanks, Cindi
