  1. No problem, I knew I had seen it too and wouldn't give up until I found the thread. Just how deep in the south are ya?
  2. This is where you saw it...not Watertown, but just as much if not more tho.
  3. Yeah, just ask Memphis about Eleanor!

  5. ATL traffic definitely has its extremes, just not much in between. Rush hour is a major bummer. I'm glad I don't work downtown; I would go nuts.
  6. 18" painted or chrome clad??? I know there is a lot of hate mail out there on the chrome clads, and I'm not a big fan of them myself, but I have them on my Edge (standard with the SEL+) and I have grown to like them. A couple years ago I was looking at the new Explorers when they recently started installing the chrome clads. Got pinned by a salesman even though I was just looking, so asked about those. I know you'll get a different answer from every salesman, but he stated they were lighter than the traditional wheel and would make it easier for a woman to change a tire. Now, I don't know about anyone else out there, but if my wife had a flat, the last thing she would do is change it herself, the first being calling me to change it! And I would do so gladly, of course. Otherwise, just a personal preference on the looks. Get whatever appeals best to you.
  7. Just came home from the ATL airport tonight and couldn't help hitting 100 mph. If you're not doing 80+ on either 75/85/285/20/400, you are giong too slow...unless of course you see the blue lights behind ya...
  8. Thanks for the heads up mgarcia13. Do you have the color matched spoiler or a black spoiler? Mine's color matched so the spoiler replacement is not very encouraging although hopefully it will come from the factory already painted.
  9. Here is a picture in case anyone is curious (please excuse the filthy back glass). I will definitely leave it as is until I get a chance to take it to the dealer. Thanks for the replies.
  10. Apparently there is a seal between the spoiler and the back glass on the bottom side of the spoiler. This 'gasket' (looks kind of like a thin foam) has come out is a couple places on my Edge and is hanging just below the spoiler. Would it hurt anything to just remove what has come loose, or should I take this to the dealer to have it fixed?
  11. I have the black leather interior and I noticed (just recently and I've had the Edge since May) that the leather panel at the front of the front seats are different. The driver's seat is smooth (very little texture) just like the rest of the seat. However, the passenger seat of the same panel has more texture to it (seems a little stiffer and has a deeper grain in the leather). Has anyone else noticed any differences in the texture of the leather throughout their Edge?
  12. I've been using BP/Amoco for years and was pleasantly surprised to actually see the BP icon inside the fuel door of my Edge.
  13. delsol25, if it just recently started, you may want to check with the dealer. Mine has been doing it since I got it (4 months now) and sounds like a normal operational issue.
  14. Confirmed: Carbon - best; second - all others...
  15. Well, dang, that doesn't make sense now that some replies are missing...what I was saying was: So, that confirms this is normal and it's just something you have to deal with. Thanks.
  16. Ainsi, cela confirme ceci est normal et il est juste quelque chose que vous devez traiter. Merci.
  17. I have experienced the same signal drop. There are certain areas where I know it's about to lose the signal for a second or two before it picks up again. It's usually when I go under trees. Can anyone else confirm that this is normal or related to hardware? I wouldn't think it would be hardware related, but you never know.
  18. Careful with the word "old"...they prefer "wise" and "distguinished"... On topic: I too was a truck guy, then had kids, been in SUVs since. I have a small trailer, so I can use it as needed since I don't have a truck bed. The Edge was the perfect size and had the most interior legroom for the back seat.
  19. Good_Hands had a good suggestion...
  20. 'I'm glad Ford decided NOT to offer 3-row seating in the Edge. If it did, ALL passengers would get less legroom AND it'd be longer and heavier.' I agree. The Edge is the perfect size and being 6'4", it's the only vehicle where an adult can sit behnd me comfortably without me moving my seat up. Had an '05 Honda Pilot prior to the Edge. It's a little longer than the Edge, but because of the 3rd row seat, the middle row had to compromise. There was no more second row leg room in the Pilot than there was in my '97 Explorer (the ride prior to the Pilot).
  21. I had a Draw-Tite installed on mine. They did just as you described. I paid $210 for the hitch and labor. Only problem was there was no aftermarket wiring available at the time. About 2 weeks later, Draw-tite had one available and I paid another $97 for the harness and installation. They had to run a wire to the battery as there is no adapter to plug into the factory rear lighting harness yet. The shop that did my install had done some hitches for a local dealer as well. I didn't want the factory hitch as I already had the 2" accessories including a basket. I don't tow much anyway so the other factory added extras didn't appeal even though they would have been nice to have.
