Wireless charging on center console
For sure. I have two phones (one for work) and I’ve gotten used to throwing it on the wireless charger when I drive my wife’s Yukon. It’s nice to just have it there next to you and I thought with a non slip pad there that would be an added bonus- FW_Z71Burb

I failed to share this additional backstory in my intro post I got to drive the family 2001 Z71 suburban for my senior year of college. Fell in love.
