I have ordered Ford Edge and then I saw the Explorer, the price difference is not big.

I wonder whatif to cancel the Edge and take Explorer becuase it looks like that comed with more features.

I know it is a matter of taste but still I would be pleased to learn other opinion.

Thank you,

Jack

thank you.

Could you please tell me what is the latest version and when the next version supposed to be released ?

I will confirm that with the dealer.

Thank you.

If I get the new car next month from the dealer, will I get it with the lateset version of the MFT ?

Thank you.

If I would buy Ford Edge today would the MFT will come with these known problems ?

What is the version of the MFT if I buy Edge today ?

Thank you.

Jack

Could you please tell what are the issues with MFT ?

Thank you.

Does it mean that the problems Consumer Report raised in their report are solely related to the MyTouch System ?

Does the new version is something that old cars will be able to recieve ? how ? will it cost ?

Thank you.

Hi everyone,

I am planning to but Ford Edge, acctually I made my decision to buy Edge and already fill the order forms in the dealer office.

But few days ago, someone told me about a new report from Consuper Report that is saying that Ford reliability slips, I think that particulaty the report mention problems with MyFord Touch system.

Could anyone tell me something about that ?

The last think I wand is to but unreliable car. I don't have the time and money for that.

attached one of the links onto this report:

I have ordered Edge and it is supposed to arrive soon\, the color I ordered is - HS.

Now I do have some hesitations about the color.

I know it is a subject of personal taste, but I would like to hear opinions about this color.

I have not seen his color on the road, and I also think that Ford will not provice this color in 2010 year model.

I can still cancel the order and wait for another color but it might require me to wait a while.

I would be pleased to hear opinions about the the HS color (earth metalic).

Thank you.

Could anyone please tell me how it is working ?

Does it use the cellular phone web connection or is it a sort of service provided by Ford ?

Thank you,

Jack

The auto assist parking is not available on any of the 2011 edge's because of the above mentioned steering. There is a back up cam with guide lines and sensors, but it doesn't actually park for you.

What is the chance that I will be able to order this features if i wait for the 2010 Edge model ?

Thank you

Thanks for the prompt response.

The Blue-Oval is another forum ? Requires registration ?

I have ordered a new Ford Edge which is supposed to be provided to me during Sep 2011, it is SLE model, 4X4.

I Love technological features and gadgets and this one of the reasons why I choose this car.

Also my brother have 1 for 2 years and he is very satisfied.

my questions:

1) Does it make sense to wait few months and to order from the 2012 model ? will it have more features ?

2) I have noticed that Ford offer the Explorer with: Bliss system (radar for the dead zoned surround the car) and an automated parking system. I had like to have these features, Can I have them with Ford Edge ? Are they going to provide these features for Ford Edge anytime soon ?

Thank you,

Jack

Does anyone has experience with this feature ? How is it ?

Thank you

Does anyone has experience with this feature ?

Thank you

I conider to buy Edge 2011 SEL.

Could anyone pleaes tell abiut the reliability of this car ?

Thank you.

Thank you, it is an excellent website.

I am planning to buy the Edge for my wife which until now drives RAV-4 , she isniot drivinig much and mostly she drived inside town. I have compared and found that the cost for petrol would not be significiant between the Edge and the RAV-4.

Could you tell anything about the reliability of the Edge ?

Thank you, thr answers here are very helpfull.

Mai I ask more questions:

1) MKS - I understand that this is another model from Ford and it is maybe similiar to the Edge, ehat is the differences between Edge and MKS and what are the considerations to prefer one over the other ?

2) MPG - my impresion is that the Edge considered and a gas heavy consumed vechile, Does it rerally so compare with other cars in the category (such as: Audi Q5, Volvo XC60, ..) ?

Sorry if it might be a naive question, but why should one prefer AWD over FWD ?

Not a technical issue - the 3.5L ecoboost vehicles are either offered with AWD/4WD or come standard with it.

 

Either they didn't like the performance of the 2.0L ecoboost with AWD or since they're selling it based on fuel economy they want the highest possible MPG and that excludes AWD.

 

I'm sure it will eventually be offered.

So now Ford only ofer for Edge the Ecoboost for FWD ?

Don't know the exact savings mpg wise, but remember one thing - with the Ecoboost engine, you can only get FWD, N O T AWD.

Joe

I have heard about that, interesting.

Does anyone know why Ecoboost can not come with AWD ?

Is it the same with all car vendors with Turbo engines ?

Thank you

I am considering to buy Ford Edge.

Recently I have heard that Ford is planning to introduce a new engine for the Edge - EcoBoost.

Could anyone help me with the following questions:

When are they going to release this model to the market ?

Would it be wise if I postpone the purchase until this model will be released ?

What are the principal advantages of the Ecoboost compare with the current engines ?

Is it much more economical in terms of MPG ?

Does Ford also plan to introduce at some point a hybrid engine for the Ford Edge ?

Thank you,

Jack
