  1. "Teens Look to Parents More Than Friends for Sexual Role ModelsJune 15, 2011 — The results of a national online study show that 45 percent consider their parents to be their sexuality role model. Shattering stereotypes that parents and society hold about teen sexuality", the ... > full story. And we wonder why there is incest.

  2. Most modern cars do have a dehumidifier, to take the moisture out. On my previous car, a Jeep Commander, I ran the dehumidifier during summer, but kept the A/C turned off and it blew out cool air. Saved on gas. It takes in outside moist air, sucks the moisture out and then blows in cold air. Wish I had a parts manual, but they cost big bucks.
  3. Well, if what you say is true, wouldn't A/C light come on? Just the defrost and fan lights are lit. Would I hear the compressor if I opened the hood and listen? Outside temp about 70, temp setting on LOW. I think his car has a dehumidifier?
  4. Sorry, I meant with nothing on but the defrost and fan speed. DEFROST, the little wind shield icon in the top left position on the center touch buttons….
  5. Is that where the water puddle is coming from? The dehumidifier?
  6. Thanks! I don't drive with the A/C on, just the wind shield air/fan speed to blow in air from the outside, using the inside wind shield vents. They say this is the ONLY WAY you can get filtered air into the cabin. ?? I find it almost as cool as using the A/C. But, am I using a dehumidifier, with just the outside air on and no A/C? ???
  7. I drive with the windshield air on, as that is the only way to get filtered air into the cabin. I'm wondering if this kicks in a dehumidifier, too? When I park and get back inside, I notice a puddle of water on the ground, where the car's engine was. Where did it come from and why? If you know, drop me a line. Thanks
  8. If you are sensitive to the Sun, don't drive with the moonroof open. I got a heat rash around my neck and upper chest, I had never gotten before. It looks bad and from a short exposure to the sun, with the moon roof open. If you are a senior and getting sensitive to solar radiation, keep the glass closed or get a sun burn. Ouch! I live in the far north, so I can just imagine how intense it must be in the lower 48, like Texas or Florida. Do your moonroofing on a cloudy or overcast day, if you are older and wise, not young and foolish.
  9. You should hear the exhaust pipes sing on this crossover! Taking off from 0 mph, with gas pedal to the floor and do those pipes sing!! This is a little monster car! As you pass a hundred the pipes are still singing for more speed! ZZZZZZzzzzooooooooooooooommmm. Of course; I would never go pass the speed limit or where it is prohibited by law, but do those pipes sing!! Like music to your ear's. I would recommend some out of the way back road with a straight away and no smokies around. You want a thrill, this is a racing car. A little FOOOOOoooooRRRrrrrrrrrrrd monster.

  11. I read somewhere in the Ford Edge manual about regenerative power when coasting downhill? Any info on this??? Does it charge up the battery?
  12. If the outside temperature is below freezing the tires make allot of road noise, but once they are warmed up, it goes away! Can hardly wait for summer to get here. Irritating. I wonder why?
  13. I use a microfiber clothe, works wonders. Isn't it time to upgrade?
  14. Got into my 2011 Ford Edge Limited to drive into town and notice no volume out on radio? No volume out anywhere?! Stopped by Ford dealer and their service department did a cold reboot of the system. How? They disconnected the battery and then it booted back up and then it worked fine. Apparently there is a temperature related problem with the audio system and the software has a bug in it. This has happened on other Sync cars and Ford is aware of the problem. A fix should be coming soon? FYI
  15. I don't use Sirius, cause they don't have it in Alaska! So, I have Sirius in my 2011 FEdgeLimited, but can't use it. All the other problems sound like a Windows problem; which is norm for Microsoft. The system you play with, but don't use. Should have been an Apple based system, with downloadable gadgets for the App store.
  16. When I first got my new 2011 Edge with Sync, I could scan the radio station and it would stop on each one, but now it only scans and stops on HD radio. I've tried everything to make it scan on one HD, turning things off, etc. But, it continues to scan, but not stop on FM station; except, HD. ??? Any help?? Da! It's working now. If you go to radio, options you can select scan programs you want and it will skip all programs you haven't selected. Leave it on 'ALL', if you want to scan 'ALL' stations. Tricky. I had it slected to HD stations and I only have one.
  17. If you go to your 'My Garage' you will see your current milage. It's updated every time you drive your car. Apparently Ford is uploading this information; without written approval and if you like it or not. Isn't this an invasion of one's privacy? Via SYNC? Is there any way to turn this off?

  18. Just stuff a paper towel down inside the cup holder, it will catch any spills and just replace it with a new one, if soiled.
  19. I just brought a 2011 Ford Edge Limited AWD and I have a question about the AWD display. Mine show two lines going from the front tires forward and from the rear tires, backwards. Not a circle, like is illustrates in the owner's manual, for being in AWD. And yes, I checked, AWD is selected in the traction control setup. Please post is you know the answer or email me roaeja@gmail.com. ...
