Today was “Take A Kid To Work Day”. Actually, it was “Take Your Kid to Work Day,” but since I don’t have a kid, I borrowed one! Garrett Hall is my cousin’s son. He is 14 years old, over 6 foot tall and very personable and polite. It was right up his alley to spend a day working at the car stereo shop.

We started out the day running errands and installing a volume control at a theater customer’s house. We sent out a large mailing at the local post office and stopped at the hardware store for supplies. We got to the store and Garrett was busy manning the phones. He changed our sign out front and helped out in the install bay.. Well, he observed in the install bay.

Overall, we had a great day and I think that he left the shop with a little bit of a perspective on how the “real world” functions.

We work hard to get everyone that applies financed.   Of course, we cannot promise this, but we will do everything within our power to make sure that you get what you want, when you want it!

That is our commitment to you, our customer.

It might sound good, but it is far from great!

I’ve been involved in car audio since 1992 and I have to say, factory systems have definitely improved. Long gone are the days of the 3.5″ dash speakers in the GM or Dodge. Many systems are “amplified” and some even have iPod capabilities. Today’s factory radios sound pretty good, but I have never heard one that I felt couldn’t sound a whole lot better.

I think that many customers also realize that their systems could sound better. Problem is, the car manufacturers are making it very difficult to replace the factory radio. Integrated diagnostics, data connectivity, and the actual fit of the radio are big hurdles to overcome.

Shortly after 2000, PA changed it’s Drunk Driving laws to mandate the installation of an interlock device. Usually this is required only after the second DUI charge. These devices require a user to blow into it before the vehicle can start. In the event that alcohol is detected, the vehicle will not start.

Mobile Edge has been the area’s leading service center for the installation and monitoring of these devices. We work with a company called Consumer Safety Technology (CST). CST is a very well respected provider of interlock devices (sometimes called Breathalyzer devices).
