  1. I have a 2010 model and as I understand it the whole Nav/sync has changed with the 2011; I am not having that issue.
  2. No the Dealership had it done, but I would think a few hundred would cover it.
  3. I bought a 2010 2 months ago and required the dealer to put in a backup camera or I would not buy the car. They took it to a third party (Car Toys I believe) and had the camera installed. It did take 6 different (and 10 days total) for them to get it to work correctly. First, there was a coding issue for it to work with the OEM Touch screen, and then there was a wiring issue and then a faulty camera. It has been working for about a month now without issue.
  4. I basically drive 20 miles a day now to and from work. It is about 50-50 city and hwy miles. I have been doing the same for the past 3 years in my jeep. I have not changed the way I drive the only change was the car; I was expecting 18-19 MPG after down grading from a V-8. I am not a fast driver, have not had a speeding ticket in 20 years, and my wife says I drive like an old man
  5. Push button Say destination fast food select from list Enough said Ok I admit I have never even considered buying a Ford in the past (I am 52). But because Ford stood on its own two feet while the other car companies were taking tax payers money, I thought that should be rewarded, and took a look. Having driven my Jeep Grand Cherokee Ltd for 8 years and 130,000 miles and loving every minute I was sure I would be buying its replacement from Jeep. I actually went to the dealer to test drive an Escape and was not all that impressed with the car but the whole touch screen Navigation and Microsoft sync was intriguing. The salesman suggested I test drive an Edge and the rest is history. I have had the car for 70 days now and have not had second thoughts about my purchase; this could easily become the best car I ever bought. Additional items I had added: Roof rack including the cross bars Front mud flaps Backup camera (this actually took 6 different trips to the dealer to get it working correctly) Tow package (class b hitch) I pull a small trailer. Cargo area liner Items that I had on my jeep and wish I could have. Memory Seats Home Link (garage/gate opener) Automatic windshield wipers Top three things I like: The ride and feel of the car Microsoft sync and Touch screen Navigation with real-time traffic Power lift gate and push button to lower the back seats Top three disappointments: Gas Mileage (I got 15 MPG from my V-8 Jeep, and only get 16 in my V-6 Edge) No Memory seats No home link
  6. Yes mine is a 2010, the dealer didn't have the 2011's yet. You would think that a vechicle equiped with power heated leather seats that either the memory would be standard or at least an add on.
