Sounds like we were in the same boat. So basically, all you needed was the head unit, media hub and adapter cable? Any functionality loss like the heated seats/steering wheel or HVAC controls? And how does the backup camera quality look? Sorry for so many questions, but with the cost of this upgrade I want to make sure I've covered all bases before I pull the trigger.I have the exact same truck and had NO issues making the jump to the new head unit. Just waiting on the new media hub and cable to use Apple car play, but the head unit was plug and play. Took me all of about 15 to tear the dash apart, install, and button things back up. I had serious reservations before I did it, but I purchased the radio from a vendor on eBay who agreed to give me a refund if it didn't work to my likings. So glad I did it because I was seriously considering trading in on the new 2500 when it gets released. I was just so disappointed that many other car makers were able to get this type of functionality on their late model systems, and really let FCA hear about my discontent with their short sided planning. Now I'll likely keep the truck for many years to come.
Thanks!
