Crutchfield says it won't fit; it's 6.525" deep and shouldn't be any more than 6.275. I've had a Kenwood for years and it works great. I think they've got one that might do what you want and that will fit: https://www.crutchfield.com/p_113BT768HD/Kenwood-KDC-BT768HD.html?avf=Y

None of the stereos from the top ten list on the page you linked to will fit, according to Crutchfield. Note that there is a little bit of flexibility in there, but Crutchfield's guidelines are pretty good for the most part.
