Your Say
My 25 year old S10 has an AM-FM cassette and all of it works just fine. But I hardly ever turn it on. It's a stick shift, so I listen to the engine.

My 2010 Toyota Tacoma had a whip antenna on the right front fender until a tree limb overhanging the roadway whipped it off at the base. That was two or three years ago. Never replaced it because I haven't listened to radio for 10 years or so. Strictly CDs nowadays.

Neighbor just got a Tacoma, nice ride. Gun metal gray, 4wd, high topper, all the bells. It's his 3rd truck in current inventory so he has it outfitted as a bug-out. Been thinking about getting me one. Then have the paint done professionally to resemble real tree, and anti-glare on all the windows, end fuel tank, winches, comms, stocked.

I have a 2003 Tacoma my wife and i bought new when we had a cabin in the high country of Colorado. Needed it for it's ability of staying on top of the snow instead of bogging down when we got off the county roads. Do not live there anymore but will not git rid of the truck, has shown itself to be very dependable. AM/FM cassette CD player. "High Country" seems to have a different meaning in that state than when we lived there.
