I know this seems very basic to most people but ive largely shunned technology, or change in general. I still buy cds. I dont know shit about mp3s or bluetooth or any of that. Problem is my new truck doesnt have a cd player and i want to listen to my shit instead of satellite radio. So right now im going through the tedious proccess of ripping all of my cds onto an external hard drive. After i do that, if i can copy it all onto a thumb drive, can i just plug that fucker into my dash and my shit will show up on my "infotainment screen" or do i need to put it all onto a micro sd card, put that in my phone, and hook my phone up to the truck?

Oh cool, so the thumb drive thing is still an option then. Wasnt sure if i had one, had to go check. Never used it and it has a flip open cover on it so i didnt even realize it was there. Had the damn truck for since january of last year and didnt even remember i had that. You can see here, next to the usb port my charger is plugged into, is a smaller port. Fits the end of my charger that plugs into my android. I think its called a usb c but im not sure. Wonder if that might give me more options somehow on how to do this shit. Cant really think of why it would be there. Must be useful for something. https://pic8.co/sh/iawkj3.jpg
