    Yeah, I talked to some service kid who transferred me to some parts kid who sounded about 14. I'm assuming it wasn't an option in the search menu on his parts program, so he just didn't know how to proceed from there and his brain locked up. I'll run down to the dealership where I got the...

    Hmm .. well I did find a radio to use but it asks for a 4-digit unlock code. Which, of course, I do not have. Any way to get that without going through dealership hassles or paying 30-40 bucks online somewhere? I have the VIN from the truck it came out of. Called one dealership and they...

    Yes, I know it may seem like a ridiculous concept to many, but I'm thinking of replacing the 5.0 stereo in my 2015 quad-cab with the base 3.0 one. Never been a big fan of touchscreen stereos and have no use for bluetooth integrated into it. I like having actual buttons that I can push, and I...
