Right Where It Needs To Be
Less than a year ago, these things cost $350. Today, we’re selling one for $99.99. It’s a pretty good deal is what we’re saying.
Now, what does it actually do? Simple. It mounts to your dash with a simple suction cup and pairs with your phone via Bluetooth (or USB), so you easily access all your phone’s features without, you know, looking down at your phone. Use navigation. Make calls. Play music, podcasts, and audiobooks.
Or autiobooks.
What are autiobooks, you ask? Well, it’s pretty self-explanatory. They’re novels rewritten to be about cars and then recorded as audiobooks. All of the added automotive content makes them perfect for long road trips because they allow you to lose yourself in a story while also reminding you of the task at hand: driving.
If you’re looking for autiobook suggestions, here are a few of our favorites:
- War and Prius
- All Quiet Honda Western Front
- As I Chevrolet Dying
- PersuaScion
- Interview with a Caravanpire
- The Ford of the Rings trilogy
- It Ends with Lex-Us
- Our Wives Under The C-Class
- One Flew Over the Subaru’s Nest
- B[MW]eloved
Yes, these are stupid puns. But this Intellidash is actually pretty cool. So buy one!
