Rob Wray from mp3Car takes a look inside Marie-Jessique Gonzalez's Ford F150, the winner of AFK Fest 2010 best in show award.

This truck is decked out with redundant power systems. In the event one battery fails, one of two other batteries will support the on board electronics.
Marie also has a remote video system with her web cam enabling her to pull up her dash camera display from home.

The next stage in the build for Marie is to install a servo motor on the dash cam to enable her to pan 360 degrees for remote video access.

That nav unit shoud have an input jack for the i-pod plug. It is come with the ipod jack standard so the radio should have it. The menu screen on the nav unit has a section labeled "line in" which is for the i-pod jack. I plan on ordering a new Ford F150 DVD player and have it installed at the same time. Good luck with yours.

this provide us with 8 relay ports plus 8 digital inputs as well. I am oversimplifiying the ability of this device, but it does some amazing stuff. I have it also driving a servo controller.
