^ Thanks, I'll check that out.

Perhaps I am missing something, but when I am listening to Sirius, I cannot get the song title and artist information to show up on the main screen. It shows up no problem on right hand LCD screen, but not the main screen. On the main screen, all it shows is the Sirius channel number along with the channel name. Am I missing something or does the main screen not show this info?

Glad to hear the updates are fixing a lot of issues. I have an appointment next Tuesday to get the TSB done and get upgraded to sync 2. Hopefully it will go smoothly.

IMHO, the MTF is no more distracting than traditional buttons. Ever see some interiors that go absolutely button overload? Acura is notorious for a gazillion buttons, which is just as distracting. I agree with Scott as well, once you get familiar with the MFT (namely the voice commands), it's not really that distracting at all. Acura RL

What you will need if you want to start doing paint correction on your own is the following; Clay bar and lubricant http://www.detailedi...ube-combo-P481/ Random orbital polisher (Porter Cable 7424 is always a good one to start with) and pads http://www.detailedi...XP-65-Kit-P333/ Polish http://www.detailedi...2-P20/16-oz-S1/ http://www.detailedi...1-P19/16-oz-S1/ MF Towels http://www.detailedi...arter-Kit-P351/ The above are just examples of products you could purchase. There are more expensive ones out there, but wanted to keep budget in mind for you. You would be looking at about $300 If you don't want to spend that much right now, I would definitely at least pick up some good quality MF towels, two wash buckets, two grit guards, and a 100% sheepskin mitt. Using the two bucket system along with quality washing/drying products will drastically reduce the amount of paint imperfections on your Edge and your F-150.

A rotary polisher yes, a random orbital not so much.

Can you use Megs GC on your Edge? Absolutely. It's not a bad OTC carnuba wax at all. The downside to the GC, and just like any other carnuba wax, is it's durability. You'll only get about 4-6 weeks protection out of it, and after that it will need to be reapplied. For people that don't mind applying paint protection every month, using a carnuba is no problem. For those that don't want to or don't have the time to apply paint protection every month, a synthetic polymer sealant is a great choice. You'll get approximately 4-6 months durability out of a good quality sealant. And if you want, you can apply your Megs GC over the sealant for a little bit more depth and gloss. Regarding bringing back the luster and shine on your F-150, you'll really need to polish it by machine. Using an abrasive polish along with a random orbital polisher will remove a very thin layer of the clearcoat, thus removing any paint imperfections, oxidation, etc. Either you can take it to a local detailer or you can purchase the necessary tools and do it yourself. If you are potentially interested in doing it yourself I can help you get started with the right tools and products.

Good stuff Scott. ONR sure is a great product isn't it? Like richy stated, it's a godsend in the winter months.

Yep, completely agree.

That's fantastic news. Regarding video, have you tried it with you parking brake engaged? I haven't checked the Edge manual, however the parking brake needs to be engaged on my Infiniti if you want to watch video. It might be the same on the Edge.

^ Awesome. How do you find everything so far? Quicker respose times?

Awesome, glad to hear it!

Yep, I've already lost one fuse behind the panel. :wacko:

Good stuff, that's positive news Brian!! You've certainly been a trooper while your Edge has been in the shop for almost 3 weeks, kudos to you!

^ That's exactly why I am not even bothering to contact my dealership about the TSB until sometime in the New Year. I have no care to have my Edge at the dealership for a few days while they try to figure everything out. I'll let them get more acquainted with the update before I bring it in to them.

You can run either 17" or 18" wheels on your Edge Sport with no issues at all. If you go to here at TireRack's website and plug in your 2011 Edge Sport, you'll see what size they recommend. You can also go here and use a tire size calculator to see how it affects your speedo as well. Btw, I have my Blizzaks mounted on the factory 17" wheels that come on the SE model.

Nope, I didn't bother getting the TPMS. I am used to driving in the winter months without TPMS and dealing with the warning, so it wasn't a big deal to me.

Sorry, wish I could help more. Heavy rains and 13C (55F) is the weather tomorrow, so our winter really hasn't started yet. Not that I'm complaining though.

Ed, I ended up with Blizzak WS70s at 235/65/17s in size.

Are you actually driving in the snow with your 22's??? We haven't really had any snow yet here so I haven't been able to gauge how it performs yet. Proper winter rubber is most important and I just got my winters installed yesterday.

That's too bad that you won't have it before Christmas. I suppose it takes a little longer delivering them over to the rock. Let me know if you have any questions about the detailing products you ordered and Merry Christmas to you and your family as well. Shane

BAMR 13 speaker Sony system MFT (when it's not rebooting) How quiet the ride is My daughter is 3.5 years old and LOVES the different colour ambient lighting The two 4.2" LCD screens that flank each side of the speedo

Ed, I am surprised you don't have a VIN yet. Have you contacted your dealership and asked for it?

I've had my new Edge for over two weeks now and figured I would post a short review on it. I While it's been mainly my wife driving it as I work from home full time, I must say that I am quite impressed with it. I find the ride of the Edge extremely smooth and quiet and much more composed over uneven/rough roads than other CUVs we test drove. Since I more used to driving Sport Sedans and Sports cars, I am not quite used to the cornering and braking of a CUV. I am sure I will get used to it the more I drive it though. I find the interior in the Edge extremely nice and fit and finish is very good. Ford has really stepped up their interiors and it's nice to see some more soft touch materials being used. I think the 13 speaker Sony system in the Edge sounds fantastic as well and certainly goes as loud as I'd ever want it. I really like having the BAMR and will really enjoy it in the summer months. It's not like going for a top down cruise in my S2000 though. Fuel economy so far has been about 11.4L/100KMs on a combination of city and highway driving. A new engine in the winter is certainly not the time to measure fuel economy though. Although we have the rebooting issue with the MFT, I am confident that Ford will correct this with current and or future TSBs. I am most impressed with the way the Edge drives, and despite the MFT issues, I have zero regrets purchasing it.

Is it really necessary to copy and paste your posts in multiple threads?? I think posting it in one thread is enough.
