I have a 2016 Ram 1500 and I'm looking to upgrade the head unit. The stock radio is the base model, I think it's called a 3.0. It has no bluetooth, no steering wheel controls, no touchscreen, etc.
The main things I'm wanting out of a new head unit is bluetooth and preamp outputs. I want to also eventually upgrade the stock speakers and add a sub.
The last aftermarket head units I had were back in the late 90's, early 2000's. I always ran Kenwood so I'm partial to the brand. I'm definitely not an audiophile, so I don't need a top end unit. I honestly prefer the look of single DIN units and like the nostalgia of them.
I'll most likely be ordering from Crutchfield. Budget is under $200 but closer to $150 or less if there's a decent one. I see the only single DIN they carry over $200 is a higher powered Sony. I also like Alpine (had a few buddies with them back in the day) but have read not so great things about their bluetooth connectivity.
What can you all recommend?
