This radio does it all but I had a little trouble cramming it into my 1996 F250 extended cab truck. The length from front to back is just about 1/4 inch too long to fit flush into the dash and I was not able to utilize the tabs you are suppose to bend down to hold the outer housing into the opening in the dash. The reason is the stock bracket I used from the back of the stock radio has to be positioned at the rear of the radio and has to stick up slightly above the radio in order to slide into a track that runs from front to back. This track is what supports the rear of the radio when you push it into the housing. If you install the tabbed housing first like the instructions show, you cannot slide the radio into the slot because of the rear support sticking up above the rear of the radio. This is a great radio and would buy another if this one ever crap’s out.

My bf recently installed this player in my car. Apparently, it was too long for my car, and stuck out quite a bit, so he did some modifications to the part that holds the player up. Unfortunately, I think his fix to this problem is what causes the music to stop each time I hit a minor bump in the road. I don’t *really* know if this is the fault of the player or the installation job, but it irritates the heck out of me.
The other thing it does: I might have it tuned into a station that is considered “public radio.” Pretty much at random it will decide to start sorting thorough ALL the local radio stations before it lands on another station that is called “public radio.” It is just the weirdest thing.
And also the clock display (or lack there of) bugs me, especially at this point where it is not even playing music reliably.
I would give it 1 star only, but there is a possibility that it’s not the players fault (just the installation job). ALTHOUGH… if the darn player wasn’t so long, it would have been a lot easier to install. Whatever, 2 stars are good enough for this pos.

I take it all back! After my bf had a chance to see what it was doing, he took everything apart again and found out that there was a disconnected wire that was hitting something and shorting out (and even burned out the fuse for the dashboard lights). After going over the wiring a second time and securing it better, it works just the way you’d expect it to.
The clock still is irritating though, but it hardly matters now that the music is playing.
If I could adjust the stars, I would now call it a 5 star stero.

I`ve bought two of these units one in my truck and one on my motorcycle. The CD player is very good it doesn`t skip when riding over bumps. But the best feature for me is the SD player, I can play downloaded music from my computer to SD cards and play them 2gb`s worth. You can also plug in your external device {I_POD, GPS etc}
Thanks Steve

Just purchased this VRCD400-SDU for $100 @ Target, and I am thoroughly amazed at the useful features it has. Gotta thumb drive with your brand new mp3s you just downloaded? Just plug that baby in, and in a few seconds, they’re playing. SD card? sure! Ok, so what about my (P.O.S.) iPod? Yep, can even hook that up to the aux input (Although I’m unsure why you’d want to, throw that proprietary crap in the trash, IT SUX!!)
) Anyway, unit sounds great, even on my little old stock paper cone speakers in my ’88 Cadillac DeVille. If you want to get some quality and features you’ll actually use for $100, go get this unit right now; you will NOT be disappointed. Ok, I’m going to play with it some more now!

I often record tracks/files that have 2 hour or more of continuous music for MP3 playback. This unit does not have resume play. Therefore, each time I start the CD/MP3 after the power is off or I cycle through the modes (Tuner/AUX)it starts the track from the beginning. This is the only detractor from an otherwise superb unit.
