Need help picking out a new radio
Hi guys thanks for taking the time to read my post
From reading across the Inter-tubes and the "Sticky" at the top of this screen, My radio has contracted the Deadly "Rebooting Disease" and is in dire need of replacement. I would like to replace my original radio system with an aftermarket radio while retaining as many of the original features as possible. I've been looking at the Crutchfield's website and am about the contact their customer service, but I thought the opinions of actual Ram truck owners would be the best source
First a little background : This System will be for my 2014 Ram 2500 Crewcab I bought new in 2014 with the 6.7 Cummins and the RA2 5.0 radio system. It has 75K miles on it and an Edge Tuner I normally leaven set to "0" and an inexpensive "Cargo Camera / Tail Light" set up on a switch I bought off of Ebay. Additionally since I like a "Little Bump in my Country Music" there is a 12" Woofer and a 400 Watt amp on a Line Converter underneath the back seat. I use this truck towing my 5th Wheel RV to remote Fly fishing destinations across the Western States so I keep a SiriusXM subscription which works flawlessly out in the deep woods.
So I entered my truck information on the Crutchfield site, entered my truck information, SiriusXM, Bluetooth Handsfree-Calling, Back-up Camera Input, Pre-Amp Output, and it gave several choices. The installation features says I'm going to loose the SiriusXM and the Bluetooth functionality but I think that is a misnomer as the radio features says it has it
Any and all recommendations and help is appreciated
