Which computer did you go with? I would want one that can do music, navigation, and web browsing.

this is the one i have Logic Supply - Leaders in Mini-ITX & Small Form Factor Solutions

its more pricey cause it comes with HDMI output, i would use this computer in my living room for entertainment use.

check out those links of the ones i send you and you can do everything you stated. For the navi you just need a gps antenna its about $30 bucks. For the web i use my cricket broadband modem, or if you got a smartphone or pda you can always tether the data from the phone to the pc, and use it as a modem.

Broadband | Wireless Internet | Cricket Wireless

you can do anything you can do on your home pc or laptop.

i want to get the ODBII to usb interface cable so i can see what the engine is doing.

How do you tune the audio without a "regular" radio in the truck?

How do you tune the audio without a "regular" radio in the truck?

the audio output from the computer is wired to a radio i installed, in the center console



and yeah my truck is dirty i have been working at a ranch with my dad

So there's no way to tune the audio on the computer? I don't have a full center console like that, I have a bench.

you can mute and raise the volume on the computer but the output is not enough to run it to the speakers or an amp.

if you want to run everything off the computer you have to buy an external sound card for the audio that has pre amps out to run to a 4 channel amp and a mono amp for subs

[truckinL33]

I have a 5 channel amp, that probably shouldn't matter though. Sorry for all the freakin' questions, this looks more like the route I would wanna go compared to getting a Kenwood DNX6140 double din touchscreen reciever.

yeah all you would need is that external sound card that has pre amp outputs for rca's. now i got a question for you now lol, are you gonna want fm/am radio or like sirius or xm?

[truckinL33]

am/fm, I don't need xm or sirius.
