We all know that the Pioneer AVIC-D3 was a great product. What could ever replace Pioneer's AVIC-D3? The feature-packed AVIC-F series in-dash navigation will certainly be this outstanding replacement and much, much more for many years to come!
Integration
Integration is a crucial element to the AVIC-F Series design, just like the old AVIC-D3. The front-panel is an entirely new look with a much more minimalistic and upgraded look. Users are given the choice of 32,768 customizable illumination colors, allowing this double DIN receiver to integrate into any dash seamlessly.
HDD Navigation
Where the AVIC-D3 failed, the AVIC-F units will triumph. The AVIC-D3's obsolete DVD-based GPS navigation system has been replaced by an all new hard drive based GPS software that holds over 12 million points of interest. No more shuffling navigation discs, no more stopping or pausing your music! Users will also experience a much smoother and faster response system while navigating since everything has already been preloaded onto the hard drive. In addition, the built-in navigation is at an "always-on" power state that is always ready to go when you are.
Bluetooth, iPod, USB, and... what more can you ask for? Oh yeah, Satellite and HD Radio!
The AVIC-F90BT, AVIC-F900BT, and the AVIC-F700BT all has built-in Bluetooth technology that allow users to make hands-free phone calls with caller ID and call status displayed on the screen. You won't have to buy any additional accessories or add-ons. It is also capable of controlling any iPod audio or video sources through its USB port that supports other media devices that contains AAC, MP3, and WMA files.
The AVIC-F units all feature an SD Card Reader, USB port and RCA audio/video auxiliary inputs. In addition, all AVIC-F series will be able to receive Sirius or XM Satellite Radio and HD Radio with additional accessories.
Conversational Voice Command
Last but not least is the unique voice control technology built-in each of the AVIC-F units. You can now control what music you want to play without even the push of a button. You could simply say "Play artist Chris Brown" and it will play all songs with that artist. In addition, you could likewise do the same for hands-free dialing. What's unique about the voice command feature is its ability to decipher pausing words or fill-in words such as "ummm, uhhh... the uhhhh..." It will still recognize names even if you say "Call uhhh Alison" If phonebook entry Alison has more than one number, the AVIC-F unit will ask "Found three numbers for Alison, which would you like to dial?" It's almost like a SCIFI movie or something from iRobot. This breakthrough feature will definitely impress you and everyone else riding in your car!

Slow performer with highly inaccurate GPS results. A third of the time "You have arrived at your destination" means you are nowhere. Sound quality is great but I have had too much trouble with this unit to recommend it. Pioneer sold me a $90 update and software upgrade , allegedly to address these issues, which then crashed the unit and left me with a brick in my dash.

I purchased this pioneer for my 07 Grand Cherokee Limited. Functionally, it is much better than the stock stereo. Even though pioneer claims that the boot-up time is less on this model, it still takes some time getting used to a stereo having to boot-up at all, much like your home computer. But, I did find if you turn off the ipod cataloging feature, after the initial set-up, it helps a little. Also, I thought I would, but I almost never use the voice command for the stereo. That's not the stereo's fault, it works okay, it's just my preference. Be prepared, It will take some time getting used to controlling the functions on this stereo. In my opinion, Pioneer could have made the interface a bit more intuitive. Cosmetically, I feel it looks more stock (that's what I wanted) than many other brands and models available. My Grand Cherokee had the older factory navigation, the one before the my-gig units. The pioneer is a lot smaller than the factory unit, but it does fit fine with the adapter unit. Overall, I like this stereo and would recommend it to anyone considering the purchase.

I was given this product as a gift and absolutely love it! I love using it for the handsfree phone and ipod control feature. I do find the gps to be very useful but it can take you on some strange paths than another standalone gps unit would. But it still does the job. The only thing that is really any hassle is that when your start the car it takes a minute or so for the unit to start up (much like a computer would). One of the best gifts i have ever recieved other than my car itself!
