And So It Begins...

First aftermarket addition. Undercover tonneau fell off the back of the FedEx truck this morning and it was on the back of my truck an hour later.

Next up, Pioneer Navigation system.

Very clean

I like the black on white contrast - sharp

Can you share more information on the Pioneer Nav system?

Its an Undercover Classic SE model UC2122 (works with the tailgate step). I had one on my F150 and it was great. The kids can climb on it and its easy to take off.

For the Nav I'm going with either a AVIC-z130 or z140 Pioneer unit. I had one of the earlier Z models in the F150 and liked it a lot. I'm debating whether to buy the adapter to retain the Ford Sync but I haven't been real impressed with the Sync system.

Question from the new guy

Doesn't a KR come with NAv from Ford? or did you order yours without it.

In my XLT i dont have one and the model you speak to is rather nice, I have Sirius and Sync can those be retained

Thanks

It didn't come with one. I got this truck as a new left over at a Houston dealership and it has pretty much every option but the Nav. We just moved to NC and I don't know my way around very well...so its an imperative.

Thanks for the quick response

Yeah I got nav on both the car and the bike and really miss it on the truck

So looking at options - got a Garmin plug in on the bean pad but would like something more aesthetic as what you are considering

Are you planning to put it in yourself?

Yup...install is half the fun! And it usually leads to more mods.

NAV systems stopped for awhile in 2011 due to the Japan Tsunami disaster.

Looks great! Same cover on mine and it works great. I like the fact that I can stand on it to wash the roof of the truck without worries.

They are great covers. I got mine at the same time as my Line-X and saved about $100 over buying it online as the Line-X dealer also stocks these and I didn't have to pay shipping. You might check with your local Line-X folks to see if they carry them.
