I have had this product for 6 months, i would strongly recommend this product, it almost does too much, one issue with the navigation software was fixed with a download that was easy to install. The one issue I have is the clock and radio station display is small very small and hard to see if driving and trying to glance at the time and radio station. Very good product overall.

The Kenwood DNX6140 is a good value. Lots of useful features, excellent GPS (even in Canada), very good DVD player with easy to use features. The bluetooth allows me to program in all 4 of our phones and switch between them on the fly. It has a USB port that supports an Ipod, usb thumb drive with music, or other MP3 player. Only issue is that it only recognizes 500 songs if you are using a thumb drive without dividing the music into subdirectories. But this is not a big deal though. This is a very good unit.

Installed this in a UK Saab 93 viggen convertible which involved a saw and faith! Sounds great! Few things I don't like are the colours on the nav screen but functionally excellent. Got it hooked up with a brodit iPhone bracket and all looks factory. Bluetooth handsfree and iPhone music stuff is rocking too. Got euro maps easy enough too.
Live it love it

Looks great installed, improved from my factory sound quality. The navigation is Garmin so of course it is excellent. Bluetooth has worked great for me so far, people on the other end say it just sounds like they are on speaker phone; which is to be expected. I use it with the iPhone and it is compatible and works great. The only issue I have experienced is that the Bluetooth automatically wants to use my iPhone as an audio source every time; overriding the iPod player. I have to go into the Bluetooth menu every time and override this setting, which is annoying, but not that big of a deal. I had it professionally installed in my 2006 Ford F150 Harley Davidson Edition for about $85.
