No 3.5, No Problem

Here are a few stocking stuffer ideas. If you know someone with a device like the iPhone 7/7+ where they have a phone without a 3.5mm headphone jack then you can hook them up with a 3.5 to BT adapter. I have been using one for awhile and have nothing but good things to say about it. In fact the one I use I could plug into my favored wired headphones and use it to connect to my phone via BT. I am going to post a link below.

Amazon.com: Bluetooth Car Kits: Electronics

This is the one I use(https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016U3HT7M/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) which is similar to this version (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00P20TFWM/ref=nav_timeline_asin?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1)
 
I've had great luck with this one. I didn't want one I'd have to recharge, so I went for one that plugs in for power. This one's also got a USB pass-through for powering your phone/etc., but I have a different car charger that I use when I need it.

Gets the job done, though I wish I could tell my phone that when I push the button, it ALWAYS means I want it to start playing music from my current playlist. It's hit or miss and doesn't always seem to be an issue of whether I've been listening to music recently or not. Other than that, the sound is good enough for my taste and the quick buttons for pausing, next & previous track, and answering calls (same button as pause/play) are handy and easy to hit by feel while driving with the way I have it mounted in my truck.

I've used this regularly for over a year (since getting my truck). I had it in the car that my wife now drives, but that car has Satellite radio, so I didn't use it very often there. It's been my main source of music in the truck for probably 90% of the time I'm in it.

It was twice as handy when I had the Moto Z, but I was already well accustomed to using it before that anyway.
