Default Stereo/Navigation Question

I have a 2005 SuperCrew and I'm looking to upgrade to the touchscreen navigation system. Is this possible? If so, can I buy any Ford stereo off of ebay? Or do I need one out of an F-150... HELP!! THANKS!!!

It is very possible are you going with stock or aftermarket? I suggest you go aftermarket will be cheaper than stock and comes with way more features!

I really want to go with the stock radio. I know it sounds weird, but I want to keep the clean OEM look. I saw the Magellan system that sits on top of the dash, but I am not very impressed!

Yea I would go aftermarket aswell. Pioneer is coming out with a new line up this summer that has got TONS of features, I would check them out.

What is your budget?

You can get a double din unit that replaces the stock radio and cd player that looks very clean and just as good as the OEM Nav.

Count me as another vote for aftermarket. Here's a pic of my Avic D3 I recently had installed.





This one does come with navigation, but unfortunately Pioneer discontinued them, although you can still find them on ebay. Pioneer is coming out with some great systems though. I also had the bluetooth and iPod connections installed with mine.

I had that 2 din Pioneer system in my old car. Very nice, i would recommend it to anybody. Get a quality install done and it should look just as good as stock.
