Magnadyne M1

I contacted Magnadyne about my M1, the rep said it would cost more to fix than a new one. Also said replacement was a M3 anyone found a better replacement for the M1? I am not sold on a radio that only lasts a few years

There are many discussions on IRV2.com about replacing it with a better unit i.e. Sony.

Wouldn't it be the chassis dealer of motorhome cutaways that chooses what to install based on Jayco's requirements?

I guess seems Jayco used Magnadyne for a while I have heard Clarion was used. I have not looked at a new coach to see what is being used. I am sure if Ford installed the radio it would have their logo all over it

There's a Jensen in our 2016 Greyhawk. I'm "meh" on it. It works, the Nav is quirky but ok.

While I'm a professional nerd, I'm not a fan of touchscreens in the car. I think you have to take your eyes off the road longer than they should be.

I *think* these radios are "Double DIN" sized. Popping out to Crutchfield: Car Stereo, Speakers, Home Theater, Pro Audio, 4k TV brings up about 80 products that'll fit the opening. From $150 to $1500.

Personally, I'd look at the selection of Double-DIN sized products, figure out what features I want, and then narrow it down to brands.
