Just if I got a new stereo I'd like to get a single-din. Not half-Din.

This is very true. Everything I looked at when it came to "sizing" the speakers for my 96 had every speaker size WRONG.
I made the choice to re-wire the entire sound system and install some add-ons and rewiring is not to hard and I used the file from this thread https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen...tmas-guys.html
Keep that file handy, it is a great tool.
I'll update on my status after I finish the transmission install :-(

That deck has nothing more to offer than is larger size. I've been talking to Ramhunter1 a lot about decks the last few days and he's going with an $80.00 pioneer that does everything the one you listed goes for. The thing is, you have to buy a $30.00 dash kit to make it work. So It's up to you. $250, or $110.00?
Let's not forget, that damn thing has a bajillion buttons on the front to deal with. You plan on letting your dad drive and you devote your cab time to just navigating the friggin radio?

$250.00 bucks just so it some what sorta fills the hole? That's BS.

Bajillion buttons? I counted 20 on the Pioneer. The Clarion you showed me earlier has 16 buttons. I counted 20 buttons on my stock radio. At the most I'll be using 8 of the buttons at a time. The volume, presets, and the clock. Most everything else looks to be settings and things I can do at the time I put it in. The layout is similar to the old Pioneer tape stereo that is in the S-10, and we figured that out in 10 minutes w/o a manual. And everything is spaced out better than the 1.0 dins.

Tell me that doesn't look easier to nav on.
It's your truck do what ya want, but you are overpaying in a large way.
