You're welcome.....even though Bismarck rocked during his military escapades, he loved diplomacy. It's all good

Yeah, I'd skip this Ebay stuff for now and focus on getting the order that the dealer transmitted to Ford.

How would you characterize the ride/handling differences between the Edge vs. your Escape? In particular, how did you find the braking on the Edge?

I've only seen ONE Dune Pearl running around here. Very pretty color indeed!

Seeing that you have a BMW (once had an M6), why did you decide to purchase an Edge and what other vehicles did you consider?

I didn't read where he or she was upset about it....rather just curious. It was probably something being considered, but dropped at the last minute?

The X-plan pin is given out by Ford employees. Here's the link to the X-plan pin, including requesting one.

Another Redfire Do you live in Florida? I'm in Central, Fla., part time. Originally from Fla. though. I'd like to see what you do to your Edge...please keep us up to date.

I can't answer your question (hopefully, someone else can) but you might want to consider seeing the X-Plan price as well.

Congrats! I think you're the first person with a Pewter Metallic Edge

Welcome to the site - very cool color. What sold you on the Edge?

Getting a copy of the original order is not a big deal. . .it's not like these are "secret" Pentagon papers for anything.

This is what I'm curious about. I'd like to see the original order that the dealer transmitted. FMC dealer doesn't show a commodity issue with the chrome wheels dating back to August though?

Excellent. Glad to hear that the problems were solved.

If you can, get the dealer to give you a copy of the actual order transmittal form and fax it to 313.887.1280.

Let me make sure I get this correct: You ordered an Edge with the chrome wheels and they came with the standard wheels instead? Did the dealer actually order the correct wheels? The reason I ask is that often dealers don't put the right order in.

They need to put the Redfire in that commercial then

This information is from Ford: * Ford Edge Market Share Neck and Neck with Nissan Murano : In February, its second full month on sale, the Ford Edge earned a 12.5 percent share of the medium crossover utility segment – higher than the gas-model Toyota Highlander (11.7 percent) and closing in on the Nissan Murano (12.6 percent). * Ford Edge Outsells GMC Acadia and Saturn Outlook Combined : In February, Ford sold a total of 7,997 Edges, 521 more units than the gas-powered Toyota Highlander and only 103 units less than Nissan Murano. Edge outsold the GMC Acadia and Saturn Outlook combined by 1,814 units. * Lincoln MKX Passes Competitors :In January and February, its first two full months on sale, the 2007 Lincoln MKX outsold the Cadillac SRX by nearly 17 percent (4,007 units vs. 3,432 units). On average, each Lincoln MKX is sold or “turned” in 12 days. That is four days faster than the Acura MDX, more than twice as fast as the Cadillac SRX and Lexus RX 350, and more than three times faster than Infiniti FX35, according to J.D. Power PIN data. Of course, the Edge is new and thus they are shipping a lot of them. We'll have to wait and see if this trend contuinues. . .let's hope it does.

Wow - we need a "luck dog" smilie :bandance: Great photo!

I do like the commercials, but if you watch Fox they are getting a little too repetitive. I keep seeing the same few over and over again.

Yes, this is the first that I have heard of this.

If the Fusion can be an indicator, this forum should remain empty :shades:

What happened? Did the rubber fall out of the blade?

Hi, Rob. Congrats on the new Edge! What kind of vehicle did you have before the Edge and what vehicles were you also considering before choosing the Edge?

We had a Creme Brulee for one week and I loved the colour. After I compared the colours I came to this personal conclusion: The Blazing Copper strikes me as a more progressive, free-spirit kind of color while the Brulee is more of a sophisticated colour. I guess it depends on your personality, but quite frankly, I like both of them equally.
