umm?

Look around on Ebay, for that money, you could spend a little more and get a reputable piece. I have installed those and actually uninstalled them because they are not of the quality nature. Think about it before you buy that, maybe even find one that is in use, and check it out, youll be disappointed.

That **** is dope-whack,emphasis on the whack. Just like was previously said, you get what you pay for. No offense but at my job we call people that buy that crap Bobs, ballers on a budget. You are better off shelling out a couple extra hundred bucks and getting Pioneer,Alpine,Kenwood,Eclipse. May be a little more pricey but they will last you.

If you think it is worth having a piece of junk made from china for 250.00 bucks go for it. But this one i did NOT want to cheap out on and bit the bullet and got an eclipse nav/dvd unit. I am frugal myself however.... you cant trust the el-cheapie dvd players. It may work for a month but you will always kick yourself over the annoyances of it later before it dies.

If ANYTHING look on craigslist for a used pioneer or something. Anything is better than crap. Used quality included.

good thinking, the navi is expensive and u have to buy the upgrades every year to keep your maps current. nothing worse than a nav that tells you to turn on roads that no longer exist. btw i was thinking of getting that same unit tell me how u like it

the pioneer 4000 is a really nice unit. only real compliant on it is the knob is a little different then what im used to (not really smooth and not really clicky if that makes sense) but thats not big enough to make me not use the thing
