When I had my 2015 Mazda 3 I bought the CarPlay kit and installed it myself. Took about two or three hours. Had sore glutes for a couple of days but it was totally worth it.
Of course, my 2021 Mazda 3 (my 2015 got totaled) came with CarPlay.
Got a tip for us?

Just jumping on here super quick before work to post that I have the arrival post in Anchorage at 11:31 PM and Departure post at 12:55 AM. 
Louisville, here we come. Talk to everyone later today.

Agreed. Multiple flights would always be needed, not all the 9/22 phones could make it out of CGO at the same time on the same flight. When Apple tells UPS, "we have 1,127,340 phones to ship with a 9/22 delivery date!" UPS says, "great - that'll take 6 flights, and here's when they'll be!"
Depends on how far they need to travel and flight plans, but generally yes. Everyone will split based on the schedule of their regional and local distribution centers. I think it was last year, but someone moved Friday morning and still received their package in Puerto Rico later that same evening.

My 2019 MX-5 had CarPlay available as a dealer upgrade, so I negotiated it as part of the deal. It would have been a tough decision to buy the car if I had to rely on the built-in infotainment software even though the Miata is all about the driving experience.
I work in manufacturing, and the purchasing and sourcing teams report up through me. The logistics behind this are absolutely incredible to me.
Get back to me when you have the FineWoven socks. Not the sleeve for your phone, the socks for your feet.
A not so minor miracle when you consider everything that needs to happen.
IIRC agents said that last year too, and it still opened up after import scan. People should just stop bothering the call centers, they don't have useful information for the most part and aren't helpful.
Is this a USA order? Where is the iPhone 15 Pro Max going? Everything should have their tracking number by now. What does Apple order page says? Does it say processing or preparing to ship?What about those of us who have ordered an iPhone 15 Pro Max who don't have a UPS tracking number yet? Mine has not yet been assigned and isn't showing up in the UPS system at all. But my mom's is. Although she hasn't been assigned a tracking number yet.
In America? They'd get shot down.
I follow this thread every year. It’s entertaining how excited everyone is. I think a lot of people on here could teach a class on logistics
The downside is higher monthly payment on iUP without the trade-in credit.
Yep. USA Order. Westminster, California. Apple Order says Preparing to Ship for both of us.
I have: received my citizens one iphone loan approval, but don't have UPS population of anything yet, and my card has been charged by Apple for the phone (the amount due).
Mom has: received no citizens one iphone loan approval, UPS has her iPhone in the system, but no tracking number yet. And her card has been charged by Apple for the phone (the amount due).
Both of us have arrival dates of 9/22.
yes
I live in SE Florida and normally theres no activity until Thursday AM - Thursday PM from Louisville
I just wish it was longer than 1M - 1.5M would be a nicer cable length (oh and USB 3.1 for the Pros would be nice too)
