I told him i was thinkin of gettin an in-dash DVD player. He instantly says that i dont want one because it would drain my battery and i would need a bigger alternator. He has no background in mobile video or car electronics what-so-ever. He also said that the unit would make my music sound like crap cause my amp (4x40 RMS running 4 Polk DB650's) would get less power becasue the DVD unit would be taking so much juice. I havent looked that seriously into the specs, but these things cant draw more than a few dozen amps...

So it begs the question: Is my friend an idiot?

Yes, your friend is a moron. Find out if he knows where to get some blinker fluid.
