Thanks everyone for the welcome.....

 

I do a lot of business travel, have rented 2 Edge Titaniums w/EB recently and really like the car and the low end acceleration. Coming out of a VW GLI and don't feel as if I am giving up any of that low end acc/torque.

 

Think the color combo is sharp and don't see many around, just need to keep it nice and clean.

 

10 years ago I would have never considered a Ford but I think they have come a long way recently, only American car brand I would purchase.

 

Should have it in about 3 weeks, will post up some pics and I'm sure I will have lots of questions!

It's funny there a lot of people saying the same thing about Ford's. This is my first American car as well. I've owned almost 20 other cars in the past and all have been with Japanese or German (actually one South Korean - a 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8GT...although I've put that car WAY out of mind. Not good.).

In the last 6 months, I have rented a whole bunch of SUV/CUV's, most of them higher end models with nice packages.

 

Rav 4

Murano

Santa Fe

Every size Chevy SUV/CUV

Mazda CX - 3, 5, 9

Tiguan

Buick Encore & Enclave

 

Out of all of them the Edge was the ahead of the all imo.

Was the Mazda CX-9 the new model or previous generation? I also have the new 2016 CX-9 Signature model and although it's a bigger SUV (3 rows) and doesn't compete directly with the Edge, I do actually like it better than the Edge. Not by much though. Happy to have two great, top of their class SUV's though.

Welcome wow love that color! Don't see many around here with this. As I remember it that is one of those "custom" colors you pay a little extra for. Awesome choice.

 

Also, with the ceramic leather color get some good leather sealer because you will notice that the blue or black in jeans will start to stain the seats. I got the Meguiar's sealer kit and it works great. You will just need to wipe them down every so often to remove and color that bleeds on the seats.

Thanks for the heads up about the leather sealer, appreciate it.
