#19 of 25 Awesome suv by need_a_cx9 Dec 11, 2007 (12:19 pm)
I just bought a cx-9 three weeks ago exactly like the edmunds cx-9. It's an excellent suv. I have three kids in carseats in the second row and it's great for us. Replies to this message: laker34 (Dec 11, 2007 3:16 pm) need_a_cx9 (Jan 02, 2008 12:45 pm)

Replying to: need_a_cx9 (Dec 11, 2007 12:19 pm) How old are your kids? I'm surprised you were able to fit three carseats in the second row. What kind of carseats do you have? Replies to this message: need_a_cx9 (Jan 02, 2008 12:45 pm)
#21 of 25 $400 for Sirius by bankerdanny Dec 12, 2007 (3:04 pm)
Does that include a subscription? I hope so. I am adding Sirius to my 2007 Subaru Forester and with installation the cost is less than $100 from Circuit City, not including the cost of the service. Replies to this message: mrblonde49 (Dec 17, 2007 10:54 am) bankerdanny (Dec 27, 2007 12:13 pm)

Replying to: bankerdanny (Dec 12, 2007 3:04 pm) It includes 6 months (or it did when I got mine in 2006). Factory integrated units are always more expensive - the price you pay for not having a unit and wires sticking off your dash or windshield

Replying to: bankerdanny (Dec 12, 2007 3:04 pm) In a post script, I discovered that, despite what Sirius tech support told me, the universal receiver DOES NOT work with the "Sirius Ready" tuner in my Forester. In order to add Sirius that works with the factory radio you have to pay the factory $400 top gouge price. So, no new customer for Sirius. I like the idea of satellite radio, but not enough to pay $400 for the hardware on top of the subscription.

Replying to: laker34 (Dec 11, 2007 3:16 pm) I have three kids aged 4, 3 and 2 months. I have two Eddie Bauer 3-in-1 carseats on either side of one graco snugride. Let me know if you have any other questions
#25 of 25 Depreciation calculation not correct? by manybmws Dec 12, 2008 (9:22 am)
28% off of MSRP? Not exactly the way to do this calculation since I have seen discounts for at least $5K advertised for these cars.
