Blue Tooth-less

Much to my chagrin, I was recently forced to give up my beloved Subaru.  The backseat was too tight, ironic as it was a mid-sized SUV and I only have two children who are widely-acknowledged to be quite small.  But out it went.  In came our new Mazda CX-9 boasting all kinds of new automotive toys.  Now, I am not one of those McLosers who walk around never removing their wireless earpieces, but I do enjoy my car talk time.  So when I heard the Mazda came with Bluetooth, I was twitchy.  No more earbud?  I could just talk into the ether and be heard?  Oh life, how I love thee!  Before driving out of the dealership, the salesman entered in my phone's address book and I was set.  Dial Mom.  And there she was.  How is it we don't yet have a Club Med on Mars?  Because the next morning when I hopped into my car boasting a mileage of five, my address book was gone.  Vanished.  Paging Miss Marple.  So now every time I try and make a call I have a contentious conversation with the lilting voice of the Bluetooth woman who tells me my 'options'.  The truth is I have only one.  Deal with my address book so my car stops calling China instead of Chappaqua.

Congratulations on your new ride! The CX-9 is a great choice - it's big enough for the whole family and it's very reliable. It will stay with you for a long time, guaranteed! I should know. I drive one too, hehe.

oh great, congrats for your new Mazda and I happily welcome you to Mazda family. It’s nice that Mazda comes with a package of very exciting and latest electronic goodies in its models. And to mention Bluetooth is just one of those. It made speaking in phone so easy. Cheers for that.
