I used to love it...
Pros
USB port/thumb drive: download pictures, maps, directions, etc. The sound quality is excellent.
Cons
If you can find a place with a good return policy, the "cons" aren't bad.
Recommended it?
No
The Bottom Line:
If you have the money and a good return policy... go for it.
When I first bought this head unit I thought that it was the coolest thing in the world. After having it for only 6-8 months, it decided that it was going eject the CD that I had in. Well, as the CD was ejecting the face plate changed its mind again and started to close on the CD (while the CD was still trying to eject.) This, of course, broke the head unit. Thankfully, I work at the place where I bought it from so I could still exchange it. I took it in that night and had the replacement back in the car before I left work that morning. I had to go through and reset all of my personal settings, (no big deal) but then less than 24 hours later the new one screws me. I put a disc in (a fairly new one that is in good condition)... It played it for a few minutes then it froze and an "info 3" message came up (meaning: the disc is damaged, deformed, or scratched... I'll say again, fairly new disc that is in good condition.) I tried to eject the CD, the face plate come down, and no CD come out. I was furious! After going through the trouble shooting section in the manual, I was able to get the disc out, but who's to say that it wont happen again. I had a discount on this and paid $400, because of my job. You who are reading this though, will be paying $700 or so. Its up to you as to if it is worth it for something that could work for, maybe, 6-8 mos or,possibly less than 24 hrs.
