  • This is my opinion. Not paid by anyone. I'm not a TH-camr so forgive my quirks and my sucky editing. I'm Hispanic so I talk with my hands, very distracting so my apologies. I realize I did not talk about other features so I'll do my best to answer questions or upload another vid that answers your questions.
    I own a 2020 Jeep Gladiator Sport S.

    Love the video! The radio looks great in your jeep.
    I'm a Linkswell technician, and just letting you know yes the units are "rated" for 160* F. Also, we're in southern California. The summers here where our office is are usually about 115, maybe 125* out in July/August. The radio WILL last in your Florida heat.
    Enjoy your unit!!

    I love mine. I stalled in 2020 Gladiator Sport S. I removed the 12volt port ( where you have the fire missle) and installed a usb port in that hole that i hot off amazon looks factory. I had also bought the DVR camera that ADPMobile offered with radion. It comnects and is controlles by radio and also adds lane alearts, ( if you start drifting out of lane it lets you know by tone) also if car stops quickly in front of you.

      Dang!!!! i missed out on the camera. I just thought it was like a trail camera so didn't get it. Think I will want it now!

      Still loving it. For the way I use it I don't think I need any improvement. It is a great unit. People love the visualizations on power Amp, which is what I use a media player.

    Great video! Looking at purchasing a 2021 gladiator and wanting to install this head unit. Did you do the install yourself? Or have a shop do it? Any issues so far or anything?

    • @knowitallandtravel
      @knowitallandtravel  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey there! yes, I installed it myself. It is a tight fit so you have to be organized with your wires. All wires were tagged so it was easy to see where everything went connected. No issues, the only advice is...when taking the jeep's push start button, the screw size is a weird size, can't remember what it was but it was a weird small star screw and I had to really improvise to take that sh*t off. otherwise, everything went well. Good luck!!

  • @sandpiperadventures9487
    @sandpiperadventures9487 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I had one of these in my 2017 Ram 2500. My complain was sometimes it had a glare on the screen and mad it difficult to see. Do you still have the same issue. Also in my RAM it eliminated the Ram microphone for the phone. My wife could barely hear me. I really didn't like it. Other than that, I loved the unit

    Those buttons on the right side of the radio, that you said don’t do anything? They do work. I have a Sport S and one of those is to disable traction control, the other is hill descent control, etc. it’s all standard features. You may not use them in Florida but you still have them.
