I read the reviews on CNET and it looks good. and its only $270 with out the NAV module. another $270 for that

 

dual is not top of the line by any means but a good alternative for lower priced A/V.......just like anything else you get what you pay for.....the good news is they are super easy to bypass to watch video while driving....

 

i dont need top of the line. its better than my stock stereo now. i was thinking of getting this now, and later when i have more money i would buy the avic-d3 and put the dual in a beater

 

Dude, your gonna pay approx 300-400 for this unit, plus another 270 for nav? Why not save up and pay an extra 200-300 bucks and go to Crutchfield and get the Avic D3? Pioneer is offering a 200 instant rebate on the Avic D3X package until March 31st, you get the HU, Bluetooth adapter and Ipod connect cable. I did it two weeks ago and glad I did!

I've worked for Best Buy off and on for several years now (my wife is a manager there) and if you do buy a Dual, get the protection plan...you'll need it.

 

Same here. And he is not lying.

 

agreed. i worked at best buy for 2 years installin the stuff and we had an entire shipment of dual flip screens that wouldnt play cd's (about 20 in the shipment)....but then again i installed probably atleast twice that many that didnt have problems at all.....i would get the protection plan just in case though.....

 

that d3 pacakge is sweet... and its like 800 till the end of the month... if you need an authorized dealer i can help you with that, just pm me

 

honestly man, dont waste your money. I wouldnt even buy that for a beater. Spend the extra dough for a nicer unit, worth it in the long run. In fact, D3 is ending production here shortly if it hasnt already, might want to wait a little bit and try and get a hell of a deal on one.

 

Its better to spend alittle more now then later
