1stHummer is off the scale

Hummbaby,

No question about it, the Kenwood unit is "cool", but it's only major downside is cost. In any event, this has clearly not affected the sales of this unit (http://www.twice.com/index.asp?layou...leid=CA234800).

However, if you'd like to save $2000, the Pioneer unit needs serious examination. Dan Mohabir wrote a very nice review of this unit (http://www.gpsinformation.net/articles/pioneernav.htm), and about his DIY installation into a Trailblazer. Suffice it to say that installing it in a Trailblazer appears no more difficult to install in a Hummer (i.e. the General hates aftermarket installation, and if they could, they would tie engine management into the radio to prevent aftermarket radios from being compatible )

I do have the Pioneer unit, but in my Corvette. I likely will buy another for my H2.

Roy.
