Streaming is essentially the "new" cable, and it can actually be more expensive than cable if people are not judicious with their subscriptions.
Oh I found this out this football season! Ditched cable in the spring since I don’t have time to watch tv much anyways after spending too much time on my ipad & forums like this. Patted myself on the back for saving $70/mo dropping down to just internet, albeit with an upgrade.

Signed up for sports streaming advertised at $20/mo for NFL season…. Yeah it’s $20/mo if you prepay for a year… yeah. $35/mo if you go month to month with 30d cancellation. The cable co would’ve saved me $30/mo keeping the cable I had if I’d just bitched a little, making the whole thing essentially a wash before I even sign up to stream anything else….

I had that too. When I sold the truck, I kept that radio/gps and put the standard AM/FM radio back in.

I still have the Radio/gps unit. It was made by Pioneer for Ford.
I should’ve kept it like you did but I didn’t have a standard unit to put back in. It was awfully nice at the time, if it could’ve had a backup cam integrated you’d hardly know it was 2007 instead of 2017.

Actually what’s funny is the 2007s didn’t have SIrius in Canada, though they did in the US. For whatever reason. The module though was plug & play. So one eBay purchase later after some forum research & the external Sirius module worked great with this unit too!

There are radio repair sites on the WWW that will upgrade that radio to add the backup camera feature like the Pioneer unit has.
