And probably 3 times the bandwidth for great AM sound!

I have rented lots of cars over the last several years and have never ran
into AM radios that would not work. I have had some that I did not like.
But that's not unusual.
I don't like the AM Radio in my car, A VW digital tuning is off frequency, I
much prefer my 97 Ford Pickup Truck, AM Stereo too. But the car gets 3x the
mileage..
