    Processors - Which one?

    For what it is worth, I like my MS-8. A lot

    Old Man Stereo Build

    Second that. Very nice setup. Any pictures of the sub prior to installation? How would you compare the dual 6" setup to a single 10"?

    My Ford Touch Update to v.3.6

    Yes, it does. Sort of. I have an iPod Classic full of AAC files that have been volume leveled using iVolume. This played perfectly, including recognizing the volume leveling, in my 2005 Pioneer AVIC-Z1 (a Windows based system) and it plays perfectly in my Kicker Boombox. Unfortunately the MFT...

    My Ford Touch Update to v.3.6

    Warning It trashed my hard drive based music library. I have a 1TB drive that I exported the AIFF version of my iTunes library to. Using dBpoweramp I converted the AIFF's to WMA, equalized and volume leveled everything and had the cover art updated. It took about 50 hours for my computer to...

    My Ford Touch Update to v.3.6

    Updated to 3.6 last night. The UI seems a little more responsive. Some good things and some bad things. The phone portion seems a little more stable, but the audio section still has issues. The indexing of my HDD-based music library is very, very slow. Maybe even locked in an endless loop. I ran...

    MFT Potential Class Action

    Hopefully this comes to fruition and Ford is forced to correct the issues with the system. I'd love to have it work the way they market it. Proposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch - Autoblog

    Good to hear. I'll get it ordered this week and update as things proceed.

    Audio Build

    Your system sounds nice. I'm going to stick with the HD900/MS-8 setup. If the lack of extra juice in the center/rears is an issue I'll add in another amp.

    Audio Build

    Thanks for the reply. Truck is a crew cab. Sub issue - The Alpine requires .35 cu/ft so I was hoping it would fit while retaining the seat function Rear speakers- My understanding of the MS-8 in Logic 7 mode is that it actually pumps very little material to the rear speakers. It is only...

    Battery replacement recommendations

    I've yet to run an Odyssey in a vehicle, but I have them in my PWC's. They are incredible. Tons of abuse and they still hold a charge. No leaking. You can mount them how ever you want. Nice stuff

    Audio Build

    I can no longer take the sound of the Sony system. I've browsed here, diyma and the regular F150 sites a ton and I think I have things nailed down. My reasons for upgrading are the same as everyone else. I've found the Sony premium system to be less than premium. It is muddled, cold sounding...

    Torn between....

    Maybe the Micro-Pioneers and mount from WSI. A little over your budget, but US made and they get good reviews on here. I'm going this route.

    PIAA Sale

    I'm going to mount them in the bumper cutout as others on the board have done. I want them as far outboard and as low as possible. I'm trying to throw a little more light to the sides of the truck. I'll obviously use them as fogs in inclement weather, but I'd really like a little more light to...

    PIAA Sale

    Yes, any of the 510 series are the same size. If you search the lighting thread you'll see a number of people who have installed these. I'm going to duplicate their work.

    Line-x just done

    My understanding is that it is basically dry within seconds. The shop owner said to give it a a day or so before putting anything real heavy in it.

    I just refinanced from Ford Credit to PenFed. 1.74%. Extremely easy process.

    Ford Factory Accessory under seat storage

    Put the Ford rear seat storage unit in. Not too bad a system. I have a relative who works at a dealership so I got a price break. The truck is pre-drilled for it so install is easy. I wouldn't call it heavy duty, but it should work good enough for what I need it for. It didn't come with any...

    PIAA Sale

    Sale ended at the end of March. Amazon has all PIAA products 20% off. I just ordered the 510 SMR Fogs. I wanted street legal fogs so I stayed away from the LED fogs. They'll go in the outboard openings as others on here have done. For off-road use I'll follow this mod up with the Micro-Pioneers...

    WSI Whelen LEDs in stock bumper

    Thanks for the info. I think I'll use the Whelen for driving lights and use a DOT fog for street driving.

    Line-x just done

    Line-X of Riverside, CA. $375 for the bed and $45 for each wheel well. Standard black finish. 3 hours to complete. Looks great.

    WSI Whelen LEDs in stock bumper

    Flood/Wide Flood Question Is anyone running these Whelens with the flood/wide flood/horizontal flood on the street? Are you getting flashed? I know they aren't street legal, but if the upper cutoff is significant enough it shouldn't be an issue.
