mk23666 Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 This is my first year for looking at the EDGE/MKX and I am dissapointed with the thin brochure. Were the previous years thin as well. Is Ford saving money or something? If I were running the advertisement campaign I would offer a contest to EDGE/MKX owners to send in pics of their vehicle somewhere scenic, or being at a fun/interesting event, show it in action, etc. etc. The winners would get their pics used in ads and in the brochure, and maybe free gas/maint. or discounted accessories? Some of the pictures on this site are just as good if not better than the ones in the thin brochure. Oh yeah, I've narrowed down my decision to a 2007 MKX with everything. Now the color choice (Black, Silver or Grey ... hmmm) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the color choice (Black, Silver or Grey ... hmmm) The older brochures are large & quite thick with a lot of photos & details. I recently sent for one on the new Taurus & its a tiny matt finished that folds out to 3 sections. Not impressive to say the least. For me, the brochure is what builds the excitement for the car. After I can't stand it anymore, I start shopping. At this rate, I'll have my 07 MKX for some time. That's OK though because I like it.

I do the internet research first & when I think its something I may concider for my next purchase, I send for the brochure. There's something special about the feel & smell of that glossy paper.

mk23666 Posted July 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 (edited) Agreed! Funny tho, the MKX brochure has three or four times the pages. I guess it's the difference of a lux brand, but I dunno. I'm used to seeing more pics and pages in these things. I'm going with a fully loaded GREY 2007 MKX once I'm ready to pull the trigger.

Grey Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Due to high cost of the brochures, dealerships are ordering very few. They and Ford expect many of you to go online and review details, build and price, etc. Save a tree! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
