Congratulations!! I've got the same one and I love it. Enjoy!

Hey Dingo, would you mind sharing name of distributor? and price?

Rockland County, about 15 min north of GWB. What part of LI are you in?

Welcome to the forum! Similar to you, I made a move from an 03 Expedition 5.4L to an Edge - and as much as I loved my Expedition, everything about the Edge makes it easy to get over it. Ride, comfort, technology, features, gas mileage, etc. You won't be disappointed. Congrats!

I want those, too! Where'd you get them?

Hooked mine up to the rear view mirror... spliced into the existing power and ground.

1.9% for 60 only if you take the Premium ESP? Did you even want the ESP? I don't see how a rate on a loan is dependent on add-ons you purchase. If that's the rate BOA approved you for, you should be entitled to it regardless.

You can take advantage of available incentives in addition to the x-plan price. However, all the rules for the incentives still apply - the x-plan price does not automatically qualify you for the incentives.

For me, video only plays while in Park, the moment I shift out of Park the video is blocked and a pop-up on the screen says something like "video enabled in Park only" Used to have the same issue with my rear view camera too - when I had it at the dealership for my oil change, mechanic said it shouldn't do that, upgraded me from v2.4 to v2.8 and now the rear view cuts out immediately after shifting out of reverse. Oh, and other things on MFT/Sync worked better too thanks to the upgrade.

From the manual... "Traffic Preferences: The Avoid Traffic Problems setting allows you to set how you would like the system to handle traffic problems along your route. Choose ‘Automatic’ for the system to automatically reroute you to avoid traffic incidents that develop and impact he current route (no notification is provided). Choose ‘Manual’ for the system to always provide a traffic alert notification for traffic incidents along the planned route. You will have a choice to accept or ignore the notification before the route deviation is made." So changing the setting to 'Automatic' will take care of the pop-up notification issue, however, you may unnecessarily and unknowingly be sent on alternate routes.

Same issue with my iPhone 3GS - most of the time it connects just fine, but at least once a week, SYNC will not show any phone connected. That's when I have to go into my phone settings... general... bluetooth.... then connect (to SYNC) and I'm back in business. It's a little annoying, but nothing I can't manage. SYNC v2.8 iOS v4.3.3

On the floor behind my seat (on weekdays since I only use the shade at work where my car sits in a shade-less parking lot for 8-9 hours). Otherwise, it's in the trunk.

I have the same one - been using it for about a month now. Works just fine and it's easy to put up and take down. Just two downsides: 1. It takes a few more seconds to roll up than it takes to fold a foldable style shade 2. It's so big, when I take it down, I have to bring it out of the car to roll it up Neither of these are a big deal to me, and if it happens to be raining when I get back to my car, I could roll it up while in the car - it's just a lot easier doing it outside.

I agree with Manny - white with the black grille looks real good imo, though a white ford emblem would be a nice custom touch. How would you go about getting the emblem work done?

Did you turn daylight savings time on? I dont think it automatically adjusts for that.

Love mine too. Had mine for three weeks now and I must admit its the best SUV/CUV I have ever owned.

Are you saying the ambient just above the parking brake is not shutting off? Does it change colors as you change the ambient settings?

Had the same issue when I first got my Edge 2 weeks ago. Just took me a day to get used to placing my fingers on the bottom ledge just like wilsons66604.

I used to have the same problem with my old Expedition - usually happened after it sat in the rain, or if the air was misty. At first the squeaking would go away after running the engine for a few minutes. But every time it happened, I would have to run it longer or drive it longer to make it go away. It came to a point where it wouldn't go away at all. It was embarrassing driving around with a truck that sounded like a bird was living under the hood chirping away. Took it to the dealership and they replaced the belt under warranty. A year or so later I went through this whole process again - replaced under warranty again. The next time it happened, it was no longer under warranty, so I just sprayed some belt dressing on it every time - happened once/twice a year for 6 years until I finally changed the belt myself.

X-Plan is Ford's partner recognition program. https://www.fordpartner.com/partnerweb/login.do It is for employees, retirees, spouses and other household members of selected Tier 1 suppliers, business partners, fleet partners and special organizations having a unique relationship with the Ford Motor Company. If you don't fall into any of these categories, you can use my partner code to look at the pricing: XD307. You can use the pricing shown there as a target price when negotiating your purchase. Good luck!

When I picked up my Edge 10 days ago, my dash read 9.7mpg with 21 miles on the odometer. 10 days later and 480 miles of mixed hwy/cty driving, it has crept up to 14.7mpg. I hope to be around 19mpg or better by the end of the month.

Welcome and congrats, Encoder. I'm on Day 10 myself. Please let me know the details on the hitch when your done - I need to get one too.

Though I too have only owned my Edge for just over a week, I'd have to say I'm 99% satisfied. 1% lost due to unavailable option of HIDs

Yeah, they're factory - and I'm pleasantly surprised how well they work. I just discovered today that they can even play .avi files off a usb drive. No more buying/burning DVDs! Thank you both on the congrats, and you're right, Edgieguy - I'm loving it more every day! :D

Hello all, I've been a Ford owner for over 14 years, but an Edge owner for just over a week, and I must say this is the best vehicle I have ever owned. My previous vehicle ('03 Expedition Eddie Bauer) never did me wrong and I will miss it dearly - but this Edge is making it easy to move forward. It also helps that my wife loves it, and the kids (now that the DVD headrests are installed) love it, too. Over the past week I've been wandering this site taking in the different opinions, concerns, and ideas that you have all been posting and I'm happy to see that there is a good amount of owners here willing to share. I look forward to seeing more and will hopefully be able to add content that others can use.
