IE door chimes, alerts and any SYNC radio options (Bluetooth phone, Radio, XM Radio, nav voice). I don't use the PX6 for phone since you have to install the provided speaker and mic. The stock system works plenty fine for me. So my phone is connected via BT to the Sync side and the PX6 is running off the trucks wifi hotspot. If i get a call it auto swaps to the the Sync side to handle the phone call. While I don't use XM radio and the quality isn't all that great it comes in handy when signal drops. Same thing with Sync nav. While PX6 does have a GPS sensor if you loose cell reception you can't search for anything and loose streaming services. I live in upstate NY currently and I drop signal like a **** up here. So when I'm on log stints of no cell reception I revert back to the Sync system if I need to. I use Spotify for music though and have liked songs saved to the PX6 so I usually don't have to swap out. Also for the Zen it uses the stock digital signal from the Sync system. You aren't going to pick up any noise like RCA's running the length of the truck. Currently all but 1 amp is using a 1ft RCA cable. Super short!As for times the only thing I would say is that it takes a little longer for the PX6 to get up and running since mine isn't the fast boot version. Still under a minute to get everything moving than it's probably as fast if not faster than the Sync system. This is fine for me since I don't start driving off until I see deflection from coolant temp.FYI, I am running custom firmware that I payed for on top of the PX6. I got lucky and picked up my PX6 used so the end price with the firmware was still cheaper than buying a PX6 new. These suckers run like crap out the box and require a lot of tweaking. Once you get it set though it's amazeballz.</blockquote>
