Default DVD/CD Player 2006 Dodge Dakota

There doesn't seem to be many option for aftermarket. I want bluetooth, ipod connectivity, backup camera capability, possibly Sirius/XM and GPS.
I spotted this online but not sure of the quality. Anyone have experience with this or recommendations for this G3 truck?

Somebody had that unit, but removed it and installed something else. I can't remember who it was, but hopefully they'll chime in soon.

I have an Alpine IVA D106 in the pickup and an Alpine IVA W200 in my suv. Both are touch screen, dvd/cd, ipod, gps capable, bluetooth capable, back up camera capable. The D106 is din sized flip out touch screen with a volume dial and removal face. The W200 is double din full touch screen with volume buttons. Both are also remote controlled.

I have that radio in my truck right now. It does do all the things that it is supposed to but honestly I really don't like it too much. Mainly because the directions that came with it don't tell you how to use it and honestly it is not very user-friendly. The best thing about it is that it does fit like a stock radio and the backup camera works very well. I don't bother using the GPS on it because first I have it on my phone and second because when you're using the GPS I cannot figure out how to use the radio at the same time. The Bluetooth is okay I can hear people just fine but the microphone is less than desirable. If you just wanted so we can fit stock, have a backup camera, and play DVDs and yes it is a good choice. But if you want GPS and XM radio and I would definitely go with something else. If you do decide that you do want one I would be happy to sell you mine at half the cost of what you find it online.

I installed the Jensen VM 9424BT with XM and iPod connector (I have since removed the iPod connect and just use the USB cabel for my droid) I love it. Worth looking into.
