I'm close to purchasing a Ford Edge..... would like feedback from Edge owners regarding it's capabilities in the snow. My husband is pushing for the Subaru Outback, and I just can't get away from the fact that my "mother" drove one, seems kinda "grandma-ish" to me! I need a car for 5,000 to 9,000 elevation, we get between 5 and 10 feet of snow.
