Just an informative post here. If you run out of data on your phone plan, Apple CarPlay doesn't work! It's like the truck doesn't even recognize that the phone is plugged in.

I have an 8GB plan with Verizon and have never gone over- usually use 4-6GB. The kids have been using my phone as a hotspot and I've been driving a lot this month using the Apple Maps, so I understand why. I guess it's time to upgrade to the unlimited plan.....
