2011 SEL, FWD, 202a, tow pkge … (replaced 2004 Accord EX)
After 1000 miles and 30 Days.. here are a few impressions on our Edge.
Mileage is about what we expected. average 25.5.. (20% town, 30% interstate,50% local highways with curves and hills).
The Ride is very quiet, much better than the Honda. Leather seats are comfortable and a good level of support. With the heat being very fast and hot, a bit too hot on high. The climate controls have operated well.
The middle headrest on the back seat does bother us when driving. It seems to block vision of small cars. Also the front door does have some design problems .. The assist handle being near the hinge makes it harder to control the door as you open and close it. Also the cup holder in the door does not really hold a cup well .. And the storage area on the front door is hard to get to anything in the back part.
The MFT/Sync has worked great .. no problems at all. it has the Gen 2 update. Also the Hazzard light location does not seem to be a problem with us..
For the exterior, the lights are much better than our Honda. The Security approach lamps really help in dark parking lots. The reverse sensing system and the camera is much nicer than i thought it would be. The sensers will pick up a 3 inch curb.
The FWD system has been fine with the small amount of snow and freezing rain that we have had.
Very happy with the Ford Dealership.. It is a small dealer in a rural area of Indiana and so far they have been great.
