I should have been clearer Richie. I use my car speakers when I'm in the
car, but then I take a ferry and sometimes a subway and then I walk the rest
of the way. When I'm commuting by subway, ferry, train, and feet, I use the
headset. When I'm in the car, I use the car radio speakers. Although I admit
occassionaly driving with the earbuds in.
