Well, Happy Valentine's Day to me! My fabulous DH bought me a 2008 Entourage to replace the train wreck I was driving (IMG:style_emoticons/default/banana.gif) I already had a GPS and XMRadio (with all my faves programmed in) so we went with the basic package, which is still very nice! The only things I wish it had is a Blue Tooth set up. Does anyone have an after-market Blue Tooth set up that is an easy install? I have a 3G iPhone so it would need to be compatible.

I am really pleased to be joining you guys!

My only suggestion, which is likely not the answer you're looking for, would be to upgrade your GPS. I have the bluetooth option in my 08 limited and it works great, but it's certainly not worth the $395 they charge as an option. All phonebook entries have to be made one at a time, etc. Tedious to set up initially and it doesn't send the sound through the stereo like my Prius does, nor will it cut the stero sound off so you know you have an incoming call.

I recently bought a Navigon 5100 Max GPS unit for $229 and it has bluetooth. I didn't need the bluetooth, but it came with it. It has lifetime traffic reports (very cool for trips in/around metro areas-has clearchannel receiver built into it) and free map updates for two years. Those things sold me, so the bluetooth just came with it. Turns out I couldn't use the bluetooth anyway because it's bluetooth 2.0, or more specifically HFP 2.0 (Hands-Free Protocol) and my phone is only 1.5. Either way, there are plenty of others with bluetooth built in, and they all seem to be cheaper than any straight bluetooth unit one could buy. Just food for thought.
