You read that right,  we’re giving away a Motorola Roadster 2 Universal Bluetooth in-car speakerphone to one lucky reader. No doubt many of you like to stay in touch with loved ones while on the go and with the Motorola Roadster 2 you can initiate and respond to calls hands-free with the device’s integrated voice controls. What’s more, Android users need simply download the free My Motospeak App, allowing user to listen to and compose texts messages all with simple voice commands. Digital music lovers can also stream music from the device’s 2-watt speaker, or through their car’s speakers using the Roadster 2’s built-in FM transmitter.

The rules are simple, just post in the comments section below and tell us one driving habit or characteristic you have that would land you on Santa’s naughty and one that would put you on the nice list. We’ll randomly select one person on Thursday, December 20 with the lucky winner getting a Motorola Roadster 2 of their very own.

If you’re looking to kit your car out with some superior speakers or a subwoofer, Crutchfield is the place to go today. Right now, there’s a huge sale on Alpine subwoofers and speakers with nearly 50 different items forming the sale. As there are so many options, the best idea is to hit the button below to see what’s around. If you don’t know where to start though, read on while we take you through some great items in the sale.

What to shop for in the Alpine sale
Buying the best aftermarket car speakers are important for anyone who spends a lot of time on the road and is currently dealing with a mediocre sound system. One good starting point in the Alpine sale is the 2-way speakers for $104 instead of $130. You get two 2-way speakers with a polypropylene/glass fiber/mica woofer with a specialized rubber surround. There’s a one-inch silk dome tweeter with speakers able to handle up to 80 watts RMS with 240 watts peak power. The grilles aren’t included but the factor ones should be fine for most purposes.

The upcoming Ioniq 9, previously set to be called the Ioniq 7, will be Hyundai's take on an electric SUV. It will be to Hyundai what the Kia EV9 is to Kia. It will have three rows and carry over design elements from the Ioniq 5.
