Hi everyone. I have a 2017 Ram 1500 SLT Quad Cab 4x4. It has the basic touch screen radio but I would love to be able to upgrade to a larger touch screen (and still have by back up camera working) and possibly have a CD player. Is this even possible? I know nothing about audio so any advice would be great!!

Anything is possible, There are tons of aftermarket options. Swing by your local car audio expert and talk to them about what your looking to do.

Yes, you can definitely do that. Crutchfield.com will help you pick out equipment that will fit your truck. Write down the model numbers of the radios you like and then go play with them in a Best Buy or car audio place. If you’re shy about doing the install yourself, I’d let a pro do it (even though it is super easy). My vote would be to order online (Crutchfield tends to be pricy but they do throw in other install items for free sometimes). Amazon and sonicelectronx.com has always had really good pricing and fast shipping. Just play and and research first, home what you are wanting to do with the radio, find what you like, and make sure to get the needed accessories to make it work.

Keeping camera is nothign to sweat. easy peasy.
