Default I'm getting excited

Tomorrow at 11:00am I drop the truck off for running boards and a new Pioneer headunit. It should take them about 3 hours. Then I will be broke but it will be worth it.

Sorry but hey I haven't been this excited in a while. Well except for the day I got the F150.

The last set I had on my Ranger I put them on but I don't have the time to do these between work and other obligations. The guy doing it cut me a pretty descent deal since I keep sending him customers. Somedays it's better to pay to have it done. The friends I have that say they will help never show up and besides they have no mechanical abilities and never show up when I need them. (Long story with the friends).

Single Din Pioneer Premier 500U (I can't remeber the rest of the designation).

The only double din he had was twice the price of the single din unit. The biggest difference was that the double din unit had built in bluetooth and I really don't have a need for it. I know I have only had the truck for a little while but I am sure will get used to the single din look.

i had an eclipse at first.... nice looking radio but single din.... basically i could not find a kit for the dash that didnt look cheesy...but the double din pioneer w/bluetooth is nice... i have read good reviews on it... i just couldnt afford it right now though... if and when i buy a head unit again it will be pioneer... have had many of them and good quality and that eclipse i had, had one heck of a learning curve to it... i mean stuff was hidden everywhere.... but anyway hope everything installs good for ya.
