If I may ask, what is different in the 2006 sound system? Thanks!
Real question is the difference in technology between the Radio they installed in 2003-2006 as opposed to now. I'm thinking a good analogy is vinyl to bluetooth.
Most of us have our phone as our connection to the world, for music and navigation, and internet connectivity. I have to balance my Phone in the coin tray, on a window or dash mount, on my lap, in my pocket, or worse, have my wife read me the map and directions when we are traveling and perpetually finding our way.
I still use a Windshield mounted GPS, cause I hate the phone GPS and its clumsiness. I usually have both since they both give me different directions, figure at least one of them is wrong, might as well use my brain for something, But I have a 6 speed now and I don't have any extra hands left for unattached technology in the limited cockpit space on the R.
Add to that with eyes getting older, trying to see that small phone screen while you are driving is gonna kill me one day or hurt my truck.
Dragon Mike Polenske did an excellent conversion of the Outmoded Ashtray to a usable storage space, I'm gonna do the same so I can just keep all my media files on a USB stick, and throw a couple USB Charging ports in there so we can keep the phones powered while they are feeding data to the new media center.
So the answer to your question is the Tech in the truck is outmoded, and there is a ?easy? and inexpensive fix to make it current to today's communication and entertainment formats.
