[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8742284, member: 614752"] I was going to chime in and recommend Crutchfield. Whenever I need a head unit that does certain things or fits in a certain space they always seem to know exactly what makes and models will do what I'm after and their customer service and return policy is top notch if it doesn't play out to your liking. Oh, and the """free""" wiring harness and all is a nice plus. I would suggest to simply delete the rear speakers entirely and throw whatever money you planned to spend on those into a higher quality set for up front and/or some sound deadening/door treatments for their mounting locations. AFAIK most Fords use the 6x8/5x7 in their factory locations. JBL Stadium GTO860C are very nice. We did a pair up front in my brother's old F250 and they seemed worth every penny. He lost the tweeters when he sold the truck and gave me the mids which I will throw in my truck if I ever have free time, a nice day, and any energy all at the same time. My f250 is a plow/hauling/work truck and I went with some cheaper Kicker components in it which are totally worth the 120$ I spent on them but definitely suffer from anemic power handling. [/QUOTE]
