Few things are cooler than the double DIN w/ DVD and GPS navigation system built in. Kenwood makes some great stuff, a friend has this one... expensive but the GPS is really awsome.

Thats actually a decent price right there...Thats alittle less then what I gave for my pioneer about a year and some change ago...And hell the Pioneer is GPS capable but needs an add-on for it to work...damn

Crutchfield FTW. Great shop. Good advice, and their install guide helps out a lot. I would go with a Pioneer touch screen DVD with polk db speakers, What ever amp works well with 2 12" jbls.

Two 12"s in my trunk? Will they fit? Did I mention I am old. I think 1 10" in the trunk will be good for me. You don't need that much bass for country music. I like Crutchfield because there are no hidden expenses. The install kit is free along with the adapter.

Yeah one nice ten is plenty! However most people tend to just put 12s in and turn them down. If you are a country guy one ten would be perfect. I personally like Electronica so bass is great!

I like stock radios as long as they have a CD player. I have never been a sterio guy I could care a less about how loud my bass goes or how loud I can listen to my music

Alpine & Clarion both make some impressive double din units.
