This means that you can save and MP3 file to a writeable CD-Rom in MP3 format and play it back on the radio.
 
This means you can get a lot more music onto each writeable CD.

Almost all other 07 Ford have an mp3 input jack and the Escape gets it for 08.

I want to add an amp and some speakers and just wondering if the 2006 limited has RCA cable's coming out of the factory stereo. If so, how many pre-outs?

the radio is easy to pull out if you want to take a look. There is a tool from crutchfield.com.

I guess the only way to hook up the IPOD, or an MP3 player, is to buy a transmitter for $20-30

The input jack is on the bottom right of the centre console. It is hard to spot, but just look as far down the console as possible, on the right, just above the little area where there is a rubber? mat to put stuff on.
 
Hope you can find it. I just ordered my 08 Escape, can't wait. It was mandatory for it to have that feature, so I made sure it was there!

I took a look and I don't see any indication of a hookup on the 07 Escape. Maybe they added on the 08
 
Ford is so far behind in the electronics field, well I shouldn't pick on them, it's a US auto maker thing. They are never on par with foreign makers in technology. All they do is copy years later. This is my last US car.
 
As usual the dealer said the Escape had it. Typical.

Did the Dealer switch my audiophile on 2007 Escape by hotdog2001

I have had 2 Audio units installed. The last one does not say audiophile on it like the other 2. They told me that they could only get refurbished ones when the last one broke the same day it was installed. When I picked up the vehicle from the dealer there was a new one in it without the audiophile logo on it...just a plain black face plate and it does not sound as good as the original one. I paid for the audiophile system. Are they trying to trick me into thinking this is what I paid for or is it just the plain ole system that is standard

UM you haven't heard of Sync? Sync is the most advanced auto electronics interface on the market today at ANY PRICE!.
 
As for future audio systems, Ford will introduce its first "Sound by Sony" system this summoer on the 2009 F-150 which will filter to the rest of its fleet.
