I have tried a few of these FM transmitters, but liked the design of this unit so much that I waited over a month for it to be released by Griffin. I'm using it in a 1996 Honda Accord, manual 5 speed with a gen 1 ipod touch and ipod nano. I had to wrap some tape around the last inch or so of the piece that inserts into the lighter socket to keep it from wobbling and losing contact. Once that was done, the Road Trip is rock solid and holds the ipod units securely.
Overall the Road Trip works great. Sound quality is much better than FM transmitters that connect through the ear phone jack. The automatic station selection works pretty well, but with trial and error I have found better stations than the ones recommended. It also initially wants the ipod touch to have a Road Trip app installed. We eventually installed the app (free) from itunes, but the app just emulates the physical buttons on the unit. Unless I'm missing something, I don't understand why the app was needed.
Overall I would definitely buy this unit again. FM transmitters for cars generally have signals that are too weak and are very susceptible to outside interference. In my opinion, the Road Trip is as good as it gets. The mechanical mounting arrangement for your music player is very secure. The unit has a well made feel to it too. The bendable arm allows you to position your player out of the way of the other controls on the dashboard or the shift lever.

RoadTrip holds your iPhone or iPod securely in place on a flexible steel neck, in a cleverly-designed cradle that accommodates most cases (so you won't even have to take it out of its case). RoadTrip uses a powerful FM transmitter to send the music wirelessly to your car's FM radio, so you and the whole car can enjoy it through your stereo speakers. And while you're enjoying the music, your iPhone or iPod is enjoying a battery-charge.Griffin innovations and user-centric design make the difference: like SmartScan, a Griffin feature that finds the best FM frequency and performs the setup for you.You can save the most useful frequencies as presets and recall them at the push of a button. And Griffin SmartSound technology analyzes the signal and adjusts the output to make sure your music always sounds great.RoadTrip also puts track controls at your fingertips. Play, pause, skip tracks forward and backward from RoadTrip's buttons, and your eyes never have to leave the road.
