  1. hey i know a barbee or two. where ya located?

  2. Im pretty sure Ford sells a compatible harness for the mobile ease. Check Fordaccesoriestore.com. I installed the Parrot CK3100 in my '07 with Nav. The harness I used I found at Crutchfield.com. It was easy to install and works well. Crutchfield also says it's not compatible only due to the sub woofer in which case they are correct. Only thing is, when I make or recieve a call, all speakers are muted except the sub. Something I can live with because it really doesnt interfere with the call. Here is the link for the Harness I used. http://www.crutchfield.com/App/Product/Ite...amp;i=120BT5520
  3. I have a BB Pearl w/ATT service. It sync'd to my wifes Fusion with no problem and makes calls clearly. Only bummer is text to voice is not supported. Anyone get it to work? Is there a firmware update for the BB Pearl that will make it work?
  4. When we are deciding which car to take it's usually because we are all going somewhere. We refer to Daddy's car (the EDGE) or Mommies car (Fusion). Any who....
  5. I love the WOW!! factor of the car. A lot of people seem surprised that its a Ford. The looks and stare's The comfort. It's by far the best vehicle I have ever owned comfort wise. I sometimes drive my wifes 08 Fusion, and I feel cramed. I have Black 07 with black leather interior, it's really nice and makes it that more comfortable. The gidgets and gadgets inside from memory seats to nav, auto climate, sirius....... One things that "bugs" me, the big and bold front end catches a lot of insects. overall, I couldn't be happier with my EDGE. Happy Trails :happy feet:
  6. I don't see many in the Stockton/Lodi area of CA. Just a few, when I drive by the dealers, I can see maybe 3 or 4 on the lot. Haven't seen any MKX's. Though may see one in my drive way soon....lol
  7. Bought my 07 6/07. Sticker said 3 month free. It's been on ever since. I haven't seen a renewal letter or anything from sirius. I'll just keep listening till it goes out or get a letter. When I bought the car I thought I would just let the free service run out and not renew, but now I don't think I will stop the service, It's better than I thought. Anywho, ........
  8. Welcome to the forum and congrats on your new EDGE. I agree with the others, as long as your happy with your purchase then you got a great deal. I too have a black SEL plus and it is difficult to keep clean, i mean in a matter of minutes you can see a dust layer settling. I love my car, it simply the best vehicle i have ever owned. I recently purchased a 08 Fusion for my wife, metallic fire red, with sync, ambient lighting, sport and moon package, its a really nice car but I rather not drive it, IMO, it doesnt even come close to my EDGE. Enjoy you new EDGE
  9. The base of the rear view mirror also houses the compass. I know this because i accidentally unplugged it once while cleaning and didn't know it. When I started my EDGE the compass wouldn't read. The message center said "compass not avail" Took me a day to figure it out. :happy feet:
  10. I installed the Parrot CK3100 in my 07 SEL. Took less than an hour start to finish even for a novice like me. The install was fairly simple, plug and play to be exact. I got the 3100 as a gift but I was looking into one on Crutchfield.com for about $179. My wife said she found it somewhere else for $129. I did order the bluetooth wiring harness from Crutchfield, $39.99. With the harness, there were a total of 8 simple connections i made and i was up and running. Works well with my BlackBerry Pearl and the clarity is really good, also has voice commands which is nice. No buttons to push, just simply say "phone" and it mutes the car speakers and waits for your command to call someone in your phonebook. It's a nice addition to my EDGE since SYNC is not able to be backfitted into 07's. The only thing is at Cruthfield when you "outfit your car" it says the wiring harness does not work with the factory stereo's with the subwoofer. This is correct only in that when you get a call it doesn't mute the sub. doesn't really affect the clarity of my calls unless im really rock'n out. The parrot comes with 3 mute cables, I used one which matched up to the wiring harness. The other two, Im thinking if I can identify the sub woofer wire I can tap into it with one of the two remaining mute cables. The question is: Does the sub woofer speaker wire come out of the back of the unit, if so what color should i look for, or how can I identify it. Thanks for any feed back.
  11. and the finger option is free!! Very Nice!
  12. Don't have my plates yet but here is a pic from the order form, GO CINCY!! Dec. 15 Cincinnati Bengals vs. SF 49ers, I have great seats.......WHOO DEYY!!!
  13. Don't have my plates yet but here is a pic, GO CINCY! Saturday, Dec. 15 2007-Cincinnati Bengals vs. SF 49ers, 50 yard line seats. Whooo Deyyy!
  14. yes, i have the charchol interior and the airbag on the passenger side is off color to the rest of the dash. it looks faded.
  15. yes please, im thinking about replacing the factory speakers on my SEL+ and details would help. BTW, the speaker in the pic, is that the factory or the one you replaced it with?
  16. Yes, I recently noticed this also. The vent on the drivers side just left of the stereo blow weaker then the passanger side. Glad to see im not the only one, I was thinking of asking the dealer to check this out, maybe a hole in one of the ducts or maybe it is what it is. Nevertheless, the EDGE is awsome.
  17. congrats, and welcome to the forum. Glad to see you are enjoying your EDGE.
  18. I am the sole driver of our EDGE, we first went to purchase a car for her and she choose an '07 Mustang. Then when we went searching for a car for me and I choose the EDGE. She wanted to trade cars but my excuse was that the Mustang is a little small inside for my 6'2" 255lbs frame and my back spasms...lol. We do trade every so often which I don't mind, we are talking about trading in her Mustang already, maybe his N her EDGES? hmmmm
  19. I also had a dakota r/t 5.9L before I bought my EDGE. as you can guess the power difference is most noticable but now when i drive i don't feel like my foot is on the trigger but if need the get up, the EDGE provides plenty. The ride is quiet so i did miss the roar of the 5.9 but like you said, it's time to move on. I couldn't be happeir with my EDGE. I have the nav, sirius, dvd, and all that stuff and looking to add a bluetooth device, as for the stereo, im not into all that extra stuff anymore so im no help there. good luck in your search and hope you enjoy your EDGE if you decide to go that way.
  20. check out these two videos of the 2008 EDGE. An inside/out tour of the EDGE, highlighting the power lift gate and red insert leather on seats. Then click on the video of the SYNC. really cool demo of how it works using voice commands. :happy feet: Enjoy 2008 EDGE/SYNC
