Anyone know any reputable Touchscreen Stereo Systems?
I have the OEM Stereo System so answering phone calls isn't safe if that makes sense. And I'm in my 20s so I like to listen to Spotify, not the radio. I have an iPhone so maybe apple carplay? either way something to spice up the cockpit. On a another side note anyone know where i can get some blueprints or something for those wooden drawers in the back?

I used to be an Alpine guy. But, Kenwood has been my fave for quite a while. I'd take a look at their offerings. My .02

I have a Kenwood in mine, it's pretty sweet. PO installed it and it's super nice; especially with all the fine tuning for Amps/Subwoofers.

They have a pretty wide range of choices:
Navigation and Multimedia | Car Entertainment | KENWOOD USA
Do you want Navigation features? I still have a Garmin nuvi GPS, so I don't need that function. I have a dedicated GPS because smartphones aren't smart without the Internet or Cellular Data and that stuff tends to not work off-road. I also tend to like dedicated devices in general rather than some do-it-all thingy. I've been let down by smartphone navigation so many times...
Anyhoo, depending on your budget, are you a "eXcelon Reference" kinda guy, or normal eXcelon or more budget-oriented? Are you looking for camera inputs?
There are too many variables for me to recommend a specific model. I'd say take a gander at their offerings, find one that has the features you want at a price that seems good to you, and find some reviews.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

Ok so this is what I'm looking for:
~ Budget Friendly - because I still need to get a quote to get it installed I don't trust myself installing it.
~ Bluetooth/Smartphone friendly - I would like to listen to my own music from my Smartphone maybe even podcasts as I drive
~ Touchscreen
~ Good Reviews
~ Navigation - it would be nice like a map but that's a plus I wouldn't mind I'm just looking for mainly the four i mentioned above.

Also have the Sony XAV-AX100 which I really like. Touch screen, volume dial and front mounted usb input are things that I really wanted though

That seems cool. I have a DUAL subwoofer in my 4Runner and it slams. I also used to have DUAL turntables back in the day. Good brand.
