Bought a new truck without a stereo, but it has all the wires in place to connect the stereo and speakers. I have and ipod and thought there must be a way to make this work. Help

I doubt the iPod has enough power output to drive speakers on its own. For all practical purposes, you will need to at least install some kind of amplifier to take the iPod output and boost it up to enough power to drive the speakers. And, if you're going to do that, you might as well install a stereo.

If you can afford an iPod you can afford a car stereo and if you can tackle something like connecting an iPod to your cars speakers than you can install the stereo yourself and save some $$$.
btw i heard not to buy an iTrip instead get a stereo with an Aux input jack (the white and red wires) and a home-theatre connecter for the iPod.

Since you have all the wires cant you buy just a inexpensive car radio and then all you have to do is buy a pod adapter that hooks in to the cigarette liter and the adapter picks up the radio frequency and plays the music from the speakers in your car-mine works great!
