– Ed Crosswire, Crosswire Motors Commercial

Edward Edzel Crosswire is a businessman who sells used cars for his used-car dealership Crosswire Motors and is also the coach of the Lakewood Elementary Soccer Team since Muffy's Soccer Shocker. He is the father of both Muffy and Chip Crosswire and the husband of Millicent Crosswire. He is also Elwood City's wealthiest business man, whose catering gigs are highly lucrative. His grandfather, Edzel E. Crosswire was the founder of the Crosswire's automotive empire, and was mentioned in Arthur and the True Francine. His middle name is Edzel because of his grandfather's first name.

Appearance

Edward is a monkey depicted with a pale complexion, short combed orange hair; and wears a suit consisting of a light pink shirt, pink necktie, a light blue jacket, bluish-green pants, a belt buckle, and brown shoes.

His original design was seen in a Crosswire family portrait inside of a tent at camp on a page in Arthur Goes to Camp, first published in 1982. In his original design, he had clumps of hair and brown monkey fur, and was wearing glasses and a suit and tie. He was absent for over 10 years, and was brought back in the cartoon in Season 1, and completely redesigned, and no longer wore glasses. He is thought to be around 40-50 years old like most other parents in the series.

Personality

Ed is somewhat like his daughter, Muffy, in the way that he can be a snob at times. He is however, kind and a good parent as seen in How the Cookie Crumbles. He had talked to Muffy about her situation where she wasn't giving her friends any credit and he had said "A lie is a lie even when you get away with it". Muffy had then said "And being a car-salesman, he won't stand for any lying!" which can be interpreted as her father being a fair man who doesn't scam people into buying his cars. Ed also seems to spoil Muffy, as seen in "The Cherry Tree."
