So, just before Christmas i purchased a "new2me" 2003 Dodge Ram ( 2 dr 2 wheel drive with full cap).
Got an EXCEPTIONAL deal on it. And just in time as the torque converter in my caravan was giving me some signs that it was about to go any day.
The truck actually has a CASSETTE PLAYER in it . Oh well, I can buy something for the truck with the dough I saved on it.
I do have a 50w Pioneer AM/FM/CD player in the caravan that I could pull out before I sell it. (It doesn't play MP3's though or have a jack to hook mine up with.)
I just WANT a reasonable new system in the truck and don't want to pay an arm and a leg for it.
I would like a satellite radio in it as a few of my friends have them and I am blown away by the clarity and the variety of channels that they can pull in. I don't live in the big city, so tall buildings won't be an issue for me, and I don't live where there are all kinds of tunnels to deal with either.
I do have a portable MP3 player that I could plug in to the satellite receiver.
Now with all that said, here are my questions:
1) What service provider and why ?
2) What kind of power should I be looking for? ( 2 dr cab) I am NOT a metal head either but I do like a few classic AC DC tunes cranked every once in a while.
3) Should I get a separate cd/mp3 player vs using the jack that seems to come with all the receivers these days ?
4) I am hoping to buy another trailer in the not too distant future and would also like to use the satellite radio out of the truck there. This is NOT a key feature for me though. Any suggestions?
If you own a satellite radio system, please advise.
Thanks again.
