Top Upgrades for Fleet Vehicle Safety and Security

Soundiego — Tue, 24 Sep 2019 17:40:05 +0000

Whether it is for delivery of products or people, you want to keep your fleet of vehicles, their drivers, and their passengers safe and secure. Here are a few tips for upgrades that can help your business to reach that goal.

In-dash GPS – Every moment a driver takes his or her eyes off the road is a moment that something can go terribly wrong. You don’t want your drivers looking at a smartphone for directions. In-dash GPS offers a quick way to glance at the map when the driver wants visual confirmation of the system’s audible commands.
High-quality speakers – You also want your drivers to be able to clearly hear the directions from the GPS or from your dispatcher if you need to contact the driver for any reason. Clear speakers help to avoid miscommunications.
Vehicle alarm system – An alarm system not only provides a deterrent toward theft and break-ins, but it also gives you the best chance at recovering your vehicle (and any goods in it) should your company ever be the victim of auto theft.

Vehicle Upgrade Tips for Rideshare Drivers

Soundiego — Wed, 21 Aug 2019 17:30:46 +0000

It doesn’t really matter which rideshare service you drive for. You rely on 5-star reviews and generous tips. That means you need to keep people happy, and usually when they are at their worst. Let’s face it, most of the people you drive around are probably stressed after a bad flight or on their way home after having a few too many at the bar. Here are a few upgrades to make even the picky customers happy.

Let them recharge – Wired and wireless charging ports with cables available for modern Android and iOS devices are musts. One thing that will make a grumpy traveler even more aggravated is a low battery indicator. And while it may be better if your passenger’s battery runs out before they drunk-text their ex, it’s not your call to make.
Throw in some extras for them (and for you) – For example, mints are a nice touch. They can give the passenger something to munch on. You get the benefit of passengers with nice breath, and the mint may even settle the tummy of an intoxicated passenger, so you don’t end up with a mess.
Add some privacy – Dark tinted windows in the back of your vehicle provides privacy and sun protection for your passengers.

Improve Your Ride and Your Service in San Diego

With a few improvements, you may get even better reviews than you already are. You can also upgrade your sound system or install entertainment devices. Soundiego does it all. Give us a call today at 619-582-5577, or you can get a quote for our services online.

How to Upgrade Your Vehicle Entertainment System

Soundiego — Mon, 12 Aug 2019 17:59:30 +0000

When it is time to improve the entertainment system in your car or another vehicle, then you want to do it right. We’re going to give you three important tips for upgrading your vehicle entertainment system the right way.

Include multiple input sources – Most people no longer use CDs and DVDs. You need input jacks for smartphones, tablets, and flash drives. Bluetooth is also important since most people would rather connect wirelessly than carry a USB cable around.
Improve video and audio outputs – You want to upgrade your stereo, speakers, and amps. However, you also want to add touchscreens for your passengers to use. A dashboard screen can also make it easier to use your phone’s GPS without taking your eyes off the road for very long.
Have it professionally installed – No matter how much you spend on your upgrades, if they are not installed properly, they will look cheap and may not perform optimally. Really, it is a waste to purchase high-end products without having the right person install your new entertainment system. It should look factory installed.

How to Meet Modern Tech Needs with a Few Simple Car Upgrades

Soundiego — Tue, 18 Jun 2019 18:15:45 +0000

The last time you took your car to the shop, did it cost a fortune due to electronic issues or a problem with the computer? There is more tech in the engine of a vehicle than ever before. So how come car manufacturers have been slow to keep up with interior technology needs? Here are a few upgrades you may want to make to your vehicle to enjoy your technology even more.

Inputs – You need both wired and wireless connections for your passengers to connect their media to your car’s entertainment system. From Bluetooth to USB, there are more ways than ever to let your passenger be your onboard DJ.
Charging – Not everyone who gets in your car will have the same type of mobile devices, but everyone will be worried about battery life. Be sure to have chargers on hand for both Android and Apple devices, and a wireless charging station in the console is a nice add-on.
Entertainment – Touchscreens are a part of life, so while an onboard DVD player used to be a great way to keep the kids from asking, “Are we there yet?” you may need to up your entertainment game. Hands-on displays are a popular way to create interaction for your passengers.

Custom Audio Video Upgrades and More

How to Take Your Car Service Fleet to the Next Level

Soundiego — Tue, 11 Jun 2019 18:05:56 +0000

Owning and operating a car service means making sure that you have a fleet of vehicles prepared to provide comfort for your patrons. Whether you offer no-frills pickup and drop off from the airport or high-end transport for wedding parties and business people, here are a few upgrades that your fleet would benefit from.

Bottled water, mints, and other amenities – It is amazing how a few simple things that won’t cost your company much can make a huge impact when it comes to customer satisfaction. A bottle of water can be just what someone wants when they’ve spent hours on an airplane. A mint may help someone keep their appetizers down on the ride home from happy hour after work.
GPS – True, your drivers probably have smartphones with GPS capabilities, but isn’t it safer to have it in the dashboard of all of your vehicles. Plus, if you invest in a vehicle tracking system, you can be protected against theft or even against an employee taking a joyride in one of your vehicles.
Onboard entertainment – Whether you want to offer tablets for passengers to surf the web or just a place to plug in and charge a phone, your audiovisual options can make a huge difference to travelers.
