flyfisher7 Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 Looking at getting a '11 Edge near the end of the year. I like the "MyFord Touch" idea, but we won't be able to swing the extra $7,000 for it. Do you think it will be available to purchase at a later date and install in the base model? Thanks!

Where are you getting that number from? I could look it up but I believe the base SE is 28 something k. I am getting an SEL with touch, navigation and whatever is in the optional package for a little under 32k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi flyfisher. :D Two things. First, as lowesdell stated, your numbers are a bit off. I took a quick look and MyFord Touch can be added to the SEL for only $1,000 (along with several other features in Rapid Spec 201A ). That would make it only a $4,000 difference (approximately, since I did not look too deeply into other requirements) between the absolute base price of the SE (with no options at all, $27,229) and the SEL with Rapid Spec 201A and MyFordTouch ($31,220). Yes, I understand that $4,000 is still not pocket change, but it is certainly a lot less than $7,000. Second, no, there is just about zero chance that MyFordTouch will be offered as an accessory add-on at a later date. It is far too complicated a system (and would be far too expensive) to be retrofitted. Good luck. :beerchug: Edited September 30, 2010 by bbf2530 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmclark47 Posted October 1, 2010 Report Share Posted October 1, 2010 It's actually standard on the Limited. So for the $7000 extra you get SYNC plus 10-way power driver seat, leather interior, 12 speaker Sony audio, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
