Great sound, looks really cool (neon light in front), remote.

Very large, no MP3 (on CD). Too much for girly men. :-)

Author's Review
If you like Dodge Trucks, real beer, and other cool things, you'll like this bad boy. Yeah, it is big, but it also sounds REALLY GOOD. There are a bunch of sound settings, including WOOFER, for minimal, moderate, or mega bass. The unit has both cassette and cd inputs. It also has a remote, which can be very handy. I agree that no MP3 was a bonehead move, but it will take line input so you can use a portable MP3 player with it, if desired. I've got a zillion CDs so, I'm fine with that.
Seriously, it is a little larger than I wanted, but it was not much more than the toys and junk that seem to be the only other alternatives for less money. (Either $40 to $60, or this thing and up). For versatility and sound quality, and assuming the Sony name still means something, ought to be a worthwhile investment.
NOTE: Battery life is a guess (didn't give me the option of N/A.) I haven't used it with batteries yet.
