The fm modulator is strong before they added that sureconnect that is weaker. What can I say. Try to find on Ebay or Amazon if you can. I have had this for 5 years w/o any problems and works great, seems well built. This is a great xm receiver. Simple, Basic, pretty straightforward and can hold 30 presets.
It works great because it has the FM modulator built in, which makes all the difference. So I was very happy to find this one online. Thanks. Had first gotten a brand new unit from XM Radio directly which had horrible reception. Then a friend that already owned this particular Roady2 model, which is a few years old, but worked perfectly in my car.
It originally sold for only about $69.99, and it sold off on eBay for $20 each after it was discontinued.Buy the RoadyXT for less than $50. I love the Roady2, but cannot believe that Toyzz is charging $169.99 for this unit.
Very easy to use but the best part about it is how rugged the little thing is. The screen turned black and I thought it was done for. If you are always on the move and always outdoors getting dirty this thing is perfect. I bought this receiver about 4 1/2 years ago when I first got XM. My unit is over four years old, has been through more torture than any electronic device i've ever used in my life but still works like new. I had trouble getting the water out once and accidently melted part of the faceplate trying ot remove it. If I "could" break the darn thing I would buy another.
It got snow on it many times and was subjected to temperatures down to about 5 degrees. It's not fancy, but Delphi did something right making it. Sometimes up to 120 degrees.This little thing is worth more than what you think. I brought it with me when I lived in Albuquerque NM where it was subjected to sand and dust almost nonstop. Now I live in Vegas and it has endured the extreme heat out here as well.
It is a straight foreward little receiver. I fixed the melted plastic put in a new faceplate insert and in less then a few hours it was working just fine and it looked like new. I can't count the amount of times I saw water in the screen and it still worked. I originally bought it in Pennsylvania and used it in my Wrangler during the cold winter months. I used it when I lived in Fort Walton Beach Florida when the unit got rained on every day at about noon.
Bill Barbee Great service and a great product. Worked perfectly and wouldbuy from them again.
