Default on board hard drives

Looking for a new, system for my Stang. It's a 1970 cov, with a radicle motor. Because of the lopy idle, I'm thinking that a regualr CD/MP3 player will skip. What is your expierence with the new onwes with the buffers, the anti-skip technology. Has anyone tried out the new systems that have an onboard hard drive. They're like 10 gigs, plenty of room for all your music. The only thing is that they are way expensive. What are your thoughts

I think it depends on your deck. I have a pioneer deck in my mustang and it skips all the time. I had a JVC deck in my old truck and it never skipped. My new truck has the factory 6 disk changer and I have never heard it skip either. I would assume if you bought a quality deck, that you won't have any problems.

Just my thoughts.

thanks guys. No I wish I was John Force! But it is a radical engine. A boss351 with a steep cam, 240*@.050, lift is .550. Single plain manifold, 700 holley, headers, high stall convertor, 3.89 limited slip 9 inch out back. This things lauches like nobodies business. I figure a new deck with some kind of read ahead skip buffer should be fine. I'm just making sure. Any way there's not a whole lot of money left to spend on tunes

I'm sure you'll be fine with just about any CD player. If worse comes to worst, just put a layber of rubber tape on the bottom of the deck to cusion it. Car CD players aren't nearly as bad about skipping as personal CD players are.
