Thank you for the reply ladybird4. I guess what I don't understand is, since I bought a used 2010 Edge, am I still under the free service for 3 years? Everything works, voice navigation, bluetooth phone, jukebox. What happens when the 3 year period ends, does it all quit working? What is the advantage to start a Sync account? Will I have to start paying for a subscription. What is the subscription for, is it the navigation or updates? I'm just happy how it's working now and I don't want it to stop or have to start paying for it.
