  1. Hi everyoone!

    I have a 2011 Limited and have wondered why such a nice higher end car did not come with the turn indicators on the mirrors. Well, after visiting the Cleveland Auto show this weekend I noticed that the 2013's have them. Just wondering when they started this feature. And, I wonder if my mirrors could be changed out for these. If they can, I am betting they wouldnt be cheap.

  2. I have used them before and thought about it for my Edge. But, after doing a bunch of research online, I decided I was more interested in keeping the dirt out of my engine rather then a very little bit of exter air into it...........

     

    Sometimes its best to not mess with a good thing.

  3. Ok, I have searched and found many posts about removing the front bracket, but none about installing. Unfortunately I am in Ohio and have to have a front plate :angry: . And my used 2011 Limited did not come with the bracket and I have to put one on. The dealer gave me a new one, but no directions how, where and what to install it with. Has anyone had to install one or maybe somebody that has removed theirs could help me.

     

    Thanks,

  4. I recently purchased a 2011 Limited. I will need to get a hitch for it since it did not come with the tow package. I am not looking to tow anything more then a bike rack. I am not sure I like the way the factory one sticks out of the rear bumper cover, but I also am not real big on the after markets that hang below it. Does anyone make one that hides behind the rear bumper cover. Kinda like the new Explorers and some of the GM models?? It would be great if there was a cover for it that blended into the bumer when the hitch isnt being used.

     

    Has anyone ran across anything like this?

     

    Thanks,

  5. Limited59, great to hear someone else is happy with theirs also. I really like mine. And it sure is nice having a site like this to go to for info. But, this site seems to consist a lot of people that are negative and unhappy with theirs (hear a lot of bitchin). Kinda sad. Last one I belonged to was much more positve eventhough the truck I had wasnt perfect.

    Hope to hear more positive things.

  6. Went and did it after a lot of searching and research. Got a used 2011 Limited in silver with the charcoal interior. I love it! And I am so glad I got the Limited, that stereo is awesome!! Also, so far, I am really liking the myfordtouch everyone is complaining about. That being said I do not have navagation, have not and probably won't much use the voice commands. It seems to work just fine. and easy to use to. Even the wife likes it and can fiquere it out...... just dont tell her I said that. ;)

  7. Hi everyone, few questions here. I am torn between the Limited and SEL models. I like the limited, but SEL's can be a bit cheaper.

     

    I took a Limited and a SE (havent drove a SEL yet) out for rides and the seats where day and night different. I dont mean leather vs cloth. I mean they are not the same seats. Is the SEL seat the same as the Limited but, just cloth. I wouldn't mind the cloth if the seat is as comfortable as the Limiteds.

    I also felt that the Limited was quieter with less road noise. Do they insulate the Limited better??

    Last question is the 6 speaker stereo vs the 12 speaker Sony. I am very sure the 12 speaker Sony is awesome, but, for general everyday normal volumn listening, is the 6 speaker version decent? I have to think its better then my 4 speaker system in my 2001 Explorer......... But, is the Sony a must have, cause the sound is that much better??

     

    Thanks everyone.
