  1. Sorry..above didn't work...dis.dumb.bubba.can't do.it.right.... http://www.hitchcovers.net/
  2. Take a peek............. :shades: .................Happy............... .................Sr. http://www.hitchcovers.net/
  3. I just peeked at your gallery......With those chrome clads....It would appear to bring the eye up there....Like that background shot of the mountains.....Is today... "The Queens" ......birthday........A Holiday in Canada??......If so....Happy Day Off........ .Sr.
  4. Yep............Saw your gallery......You got chrome wheels .... Can't say the chrome strip would be bad... BUT.....I'm seeing a pinstripe there too.....The darker colors don't seem to wash out.....The banana needs something....Just ain't sure what.....Oh well....I'll keep looking......Thanks.........Sr.
  5. Well....Without starting a food fight....Has anybody tried this "stick-on" product...I been looking at various photo gallery on this forum and have seen a couple machines that could be...in my opinion....be enhanced with this chrome strip to accent chrome wheels, etc...The MKX has this strip..factory installed....checking w/ford body shop to buy those strips and replace with the blacks on the edge....is way out cost prohibitive...I am playing with the idea on my vehicle...but my banana color needs some pizazz...I'm thinking pin stripe along that door ridge....I can play with pictures on the computer and that really doesn't tell me...If this is good stuff.. or another load of cheap.... ....Thank You................Happy.......... ..................Sr. http://www.shopsar.com/Ford-Edge-Window-Si...m-p/ws47360.htm
  6. :shades: .....Scooper.....I'm looking at your pictures... No doubt.... BLACK...those babies out of there....Stealth is the way for that EDGE.... Want to check it out first??.... Does your "god box" ...NOT... have the "Paint" program?? :stats: ....Bingo ! ! Pull a picture in there and play...... Happy................. ..................Sr. Edit item: You know I'm looking and.....Is there something can be done with that BAMR flip up curtain thing?? I'm thinking Black out that hardware.....Just a thought...
  7. :shades: ..07 MKX....Well..It's that I don't appreciate your post with the pictures and MKX car info...I do..and Thanks...BUT...What I was hoping was Lincoln would break their many year cycle of "re-badging" a Ford and lay out a vehicle that... If I see two Creme Brulee cars I know the Lincoln from any angle I see it...What I'd have hoped for......Painted lower body kits, Standard... 20 or 22 Real wheels NOT the Plasto-chrome wheel covers, Standard...How about an inter-cooled Turbo, Standard, to seperate those classes?....And then inside,...Not just wood trinkets on a Ford interior.... BUT.... Stuff like... Ditch the console and have BIG Luxurious fully electric seats...Like a 2000 series Continental...That Connie was different than anything Ford had....Connie used to be that way....But alas, Connie is gone...Good old girl...Memory entry..Yes!..from the key fob..NOT a 1 & 2 button on the door panel..How about that easy entry?..Yes.. and how about "reverse mirrors" like the Connie....The MKX started me going with that 60's grille, but never followed through for me..The different tail light treatment was nice and very different than Ford, BUT a bit too/too...the nostalgia?....Sorry.....I'm sure the SYNC is tops, but what Ford needs to get...."Not every Car Nut is a Techno-Nut"... and visa versa...Real Techno-Nuts want their groceries in a paper bag...Maybe Saturns, Mini-Cooper or the street version electric golf carts...Yikes...Gutless electric cars.. My muscle car world has gone....Forever...Lincoln should go for the luxury treatments and SYNC can be optional for the Techno crowd...The way I see it, FMC has already blown 3 re-makes of a Their..MKZ/Zephyr and whatever it was before that..And then their Taurus/500/back to Taurus again deals...Makes me feel like the 70's with Coke/New Coke/Classic Coke......This is the flustration... I was hoping FMC to end.....Yes, I would like..Yo!.. Love.. To get a MKX, but I'm hoping for something more than....Like you said a "rebadged ford" ........Ford had a color in 2006 that only came on Limited Freestar called Smokestone....It was nearly holographic....It changed between three colors...depending on the light...nearly right before your eyes.....Lincoln could pull that out...instead of another variation of White..Or another re-make of Black....How about a deep forest green, remember the big Jags with that green? It just screamed "Class Act"....... I guess to end...My endless dribble and sorry for that....Lincoln needs to be Lincoln... and not another...."they all came in black" Ford......Maybe I'll get a 2008 Limited and wait til ??....Happy..... ..............Sr....
  8. Looking at your gallery...Is that pin stripe painted? I like the heck out of that...Think I'll look into a plan to pick up the ridge at right fender and follow that ridge down the side around the back circle the blue oval and right on around to terminate on the other front fender where that ridge fades away.....That's a good looking car you got there...Thanks for the peek at the pix......

  9. ....I don't give two poo's about Sync, wood trinkets and Monochrome....Sync.... ....If it don't sound like "grits and fried catfish" the car ain't goin' recognize any $#2*&...I said anyway.......Now Good Hands is on the right track. . :yup: ......... Old Boobly Boo over there can take that a four wheelin' ....... This looks like the "L.A." machine for me.... ...Sr..............PS.....Does it come with the "black out" windshield for night driving???
  10. .......Employee People............So if EDGE is going to start a Limited with extra tricks and up-graded standard items....WHAT is the MKX going to have?? Just make all the "extra stuff".... Standard ?? ...Or have they got an Ace up the sleeve we ain't seen.......Yet? .............Just wondering....I'll be looking to trade soon ... I'm at 27K....................... ................Sr..........
  11. ..............Off Road?...........Son are we talkin'... L.A. ? ............ Lower Alabama.........Happy..... ..............Sr.........
  12. Suit?...... I just got the one from my daddys funeral...... It didn't fit him very well, either...............Happy .......Sr.......
  13. Left you a post about the towing situation......Sr.

  14. Dennis: .......... :stats: ........... I'm thinking you are not going to like this....Your question got my interest....As usual, I called three people and got three different answers....So here we go. #1 IF the vehicle is AWD---do not pull it wheels down---no matter what the book says...This is a guy that tows cars...He specifically uses the tilt bed truck for almost everything, anymore...too many variables. #2 The other guy was cool til we got to the mechanical brake device you spoke of....Then the conversation went to an alphabet soup of RSC, ESC and TCS, which is some inter-connected electronic "roll, stablization and track control" ...The thought here was that activating the brakes without the motor running may simulate some activity that would back feed these systems...It is possible to turn this system off with the little sliding car icon on the center dash column... BUT he thought that with the engine not running it may default back to an "on" position.. So maybe try a 2 hour run without the brake doo-dad and see what gives...#3 Was a little more concerned with the Ford 6 speed tranny getting enough lubrication in a towed situation....He noted the contradicting book comment: In recreational towing they give a wheels down procedure...Yet in Emergency towing they say wheels down... NO more than 50 miles at less than 45 or something along those lines....The tranny lubrication factor is his main concern...His advise... "You paid $30K for the car...A blown tranny is a lot more than $2K for a trailer?".........So...My sources 2 out of 3...Saying get it up off the ground.....Sorry....This don't sound like what you wanted ....I went for the challenge.......... .............Did get to talk to a couple buds I haven't seen in a while..........Good Luck..... ...........Sr.
  15. :shades: ............Am I looking at a tinted windshield?? Plenty people told me I'm brain dead, so you won"t be the first, but I was of the understanding that it was illegal "everywhere" to tint below that ASI line...If they allow that in Florida...So be it...I just wouldn't drive it in Alabama...cause there will be some deputy, somewhere, :shades: looking to nail it......................Happy...... ................Sr...
  16. I'm guessing here.. You are pulling it behind a motorhome? ..Is there an ambillical? "connection between the two vehicles to remotely operate tail/turn lights".........then I'm thinking some part of that ain't right....I'm thinking, If the radio or lights or whatever was on...It ain't going to run down in 2-3 hours sitting in the yard......Some other item is draining that battery and that motorhome ambillical seems like where I would go looking....Just a thought...........Happy......... ......Sr.
  17. Nicky: You seem to be full of apprehension.. Is there some reason this 3 or 4 day thing is hanging over you? Look it over...Check a couple dealers...There is a dealer in Dublin right there at 580/680...Maybe Livermore? Danville? Surely, Concord has a biggie.. My point here..Look around...What's this worth? Take the time.... Your 22 for goodness sakes.....You got LOTS of time...... ........Sr.
  18. Gentlemen: Pahleez :stop: I'll tell you my experience and why I don't care for the turn signal in the mirror... You're towing a trailer at night and are about to make a sharp, if not somewhat short, turn... You want to keep your eye on the trailer and the light is flashing in your eyes...Not so good.......I would say if the car came with a hitch, then no turn lights in the mirror, but a hitch can be added...After-all it was designed as a utility vehicle to "maybe" pull a small trailer......Since I have pulled more trailer miles than I would care to think about...Yep....I don't care for the mirror turn lights either.......Just a thought...............Happy.......... ......Sr.
  19. Kid: Saw your 6A post...Say that's 4A California time...I'm hoping your not up fretting about that car....Good plan...Let that clunker dealer take that one on the chin..... ......Sr
  20. Well! Guess I'll just go off and whistle...................................Sr. http://kids.niehs.nih.gov/lyrics/dixie.htm
  21. Thank You....I was about to go bonkers....That 40 Bones does put a squeel to my tires...I was over in Sandy Springs last week...I could have slipped over and eye-balled it......If pigs flew too......Just noted those way different fog lights...................Thanks............Happy... ....Sr.
  22. Kid: I'm hoping you are keeping all this on paper.. It has got to make the best horror story since Frankenstien..I'm not knowing why you went to Selma..As memory serves Selma is 50/50 between Fresno and Visilia on Hwy 99..Oh Boy! I'm betting your wife is spitting bullets..Go to the testing forum and look up a goof-off test I did..There is a link there for just what you need to improve your position in the (loosely speaking) "service department" So they actually suggested you wreck the car so it could get re-painted..or where they hopeful of a total?.....I'm thinking on this...I suspect your wife may be on the right track..wear those buggers down with constant returns until they do something to just get you to go away..Unfortunate it has to cost you so much in wasted time to play with these boneheads...It may be attorney time down there in the Selma area...Maybe Ding-Dong Family Ford needs to take this one on the chin....I'm so sorry for you...The Edge I have is a wonderful car..I got 25K on it and have only had one little two bit fix..A defective tire pressure sensor.. I sure hope this works out for you......keep us informed on the continuing saga....I better get rolling for that crazy woman finds out I'm on the page and starts on me.......... ..........Sr.............ps...you can leave me a personal message I don't think she can read those................Sr.
  23. I know I'm brain dead, but didn't this car surface on.... some thread...here...somewhere?.......................Sr. http://carad.ebayimg.com/i15/02/a/000/77/93/4d72_4.JPG
  24. Blu: I suspect this guy (see below) has done as much modifications as any body to their EDGE...... Look up jeffreybehr in members box......Check the matching painted front cowl.....Dig into his posts and you'll find some trick exhaust work............................... ......Sr. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k220/jef.../Front_700w.jpg
