Topic: iPod for the Car

[Elizabeth Rose]

I searched around but I'm a technical dummy so I don't know what exactly I need.  I want something that will allow me play my iPod on the car radio.  However, I don't want to spend 400 bucks.  Any ideas of what would be most compatible?  Also, I only have a tape player in my car if that is of any help.

You have a tape deck?

Use the best (and cheapest) method.

Just plug in the headphone plug into the iPod, and put the cassette in your tape deck. It will play through that.

Yeah Liz, the tape is great. I spent like 60 bucks on an itrip and it broke, and the sound quality was pretty bad. The tape is AWESOME, that's all I use now.

Yeah, I had one of those, but my brother got mad at me when I took away his text messaging for running up a huge bill and broke it.  We have an iTrip already, and the warranty is not up, so I might say it's broken and take it back to the store.  It sucks.  The frequencies are always fuzzy so it makes the music sound like crap.

I think I'll just get another adaptor.  It uses the battery of the iPod up, but I really should not be browsing my music while driving anyway.

Try this, my friend has it in his car and it works great.
