While many of us talk about big brother knowing every detail of our daily lives sometimes it isn’t so bad. The Pioneer AVIC-Z1 in-dash navigation/entertainment system learns your habits. The device stores your favorite routes, automatically, learning your preferences when offering directions.
The AVIC-Z1 speaks street names and highway numbers, and you can command it by voice (for navigation, radio, DVD, CD, and MP3). The MP3 music library is built from CD’s as you play them. With accessories, the unit can play Sirius or XM satellite radio, show which roads are jammed, connect to Bluetooth cellphones, operate an iPod and display images from a rearview camera. The AVIC-Z1, which is available for about $2,250 from online and offline car stereo dealers, has a 7-inch touch screen that sits flush with the dashboard like that of a factory-installed system.
