I went with the pioneer avh8400 bc I wanted the detachable screen. But it has everything: USB, SD, DVD, Bluetooth, HD Radio, iPod/iPhone capability, XM/Sirius radio ready, Pandora, Advanced App Mode, Mixtrax, back-up camera ready (can view image while reversing and driving), RCA inputs, rear monitor outputs, etc.

Don't forget the parking brake bypass and steering wheel controls.
**You'll lose the factory USB, audio jack, and bluetooth mic. The HU will come with a bluetooth mic. You can get a wire harness to make connecting the SWC a lot easier and also keep the factory audio jack. You can mod the factory USB port to retain its function; however, you'll be using one of the two USB ports on the back of the HU for the mod**

I have the Pioneer AVH-X5500BHS headunit. Haven't had problems with it at all. I got a bypass wire from Amazon too so my passengers can watch movies. Pictures are in my build thread.

i got the new pioneer avh-x8500bhs and its just the upgraded version of the 8400 and i agree with all of them about getting the extra bypass and the aswc for the steering wheel controls. The mounting kit for all is a pain in the butt to carefully mod and get to go in and even then the hu doesn't fully fit in the vehicle how i'd like it to.
