Default Does anybody have the AVIC-F900BT?

I'm thinking about getting this. It's the 2.0 version. Whatever that means. THANKS!

I have the AVIC-F700BT, same thing just no DVD built in, just CD. It's f*in sweet. The 2.0 is the Firmware version, I just updated mine. There's some good changes. Tweaked it a little before sending it to the unit in order to bypass the Parking Brake so I can change Nav points, watch movies, play with settings, whatever while in motion. Of course I won't actually be doing it, my passenger will, but that's why I can do this hack/mod. Common sense not to stare at a movie while driving down the highway...

If you have much bass in your truck at all this is a bad unit to use!!! I was using it along with 2 solo x 18s and the bass rattled it so much that the unit would clip on and off and the touch feature started to go bad.

Last time I had it on the meter it put out a 152.5 on music. I know i can get alot more out of it but have to change out my back glass with 1" plexiglass and install a few rearview cameras and a monitor so I can build a bigger box and still be able to know what is behind me.
