I agree with you. It appears that Dearborn is not communicating with their dealer body or the dealer body isn't relaying this info. to the customers. I think this is the third cancellation I've seen on this board, which is not good at all.

Is this CAD or USD?

Ford Edge delayed articles: Ford pushes back Edge, MKX launch. Read the article here. Ailing Ford's crucial Edge crossover is running late. Read the article here. If the Edge is delayed a few weeks for quality measures. it's ok with me Considering the Fusion, MKZ and Milan quality is rather better than the Accord and Camary, I'd rather wait the few extra weeks for a vehicle with similar quality from Ford. :yup: Today, Jaguar and Lincoln are both in the top three for dealer satisfaction.

CLICK HERE, there are a few 3.5L engines in the press release section.

White won't be offered on the Edge. You are right, the colors are not exact.

Yep, I agree here. Traditionally, Ford shipped cars out with issues that the dealer had to fix. This no longer seems to be the case at Ford. One only has to look at the success of the Fusion, Milan and Zephyr to see this. If it takes Ford a few extra weeks to iron these issue out, I am good with that. This does suck for people who need their Edge NOW, but this is a long term effort by Ford this must be applaued. The USA Today article points out that even Toyota delays launches these days.

I think what happened is that dealers eager for a sale were giving out un-realistic dates. Edge orders were always planned to start arriving the first week of December. Is there a memo out there that dealers received that says otherwise?

Ford updated their site. Click on downloads for Mac & PC screensavers HERE.

Aside from Edmunds, there is another magazine that reported on the Edge's brakes as not being up to par. I cannot remember which one right now though. Then again, magazines have attacked the Fusion's 3.0L engine as being weak while owners themselves are happy with it.

You beat me to the punch

What channel? Canada or U.S.?

Ford has said that they should begin arriving at dealers this December (2006). Follow page 3 of this thread for the lease topic - we are all waiting for that info.

Yes, please post it. I'd like to see it too. :yup:

I started a new topic about comparing the Edge HERE. Here's a scan from Ford World (internal Ford employee magazine), which compares the Edge's top competitors:

Your issue has to do less with marketing and more with production. Consumers and journalists will be scrutinizing the Edge very critically. With that being said, Ford cannot afford any mistakes and the Edge has to launch without consumers experiencing any problems. I can understand how and why Ford would push back production dates of an entire new model launch in order to get it "right." Ford has said the Edge will arrive at dealers in Decemeber and they have also said they are target to accomplish such.

16 New Ford Edge Photos :happy feet:

I sent my e-mail over to her

Yes, it is. I am going to look for a red Edge in Dearborn this Friday. I'll post some pics when I fine one!

I know this picture isn't of an Edge, but I thought you would find the color awesome

Well, thanks to everyone at Oakville for squashing the rumors! :extinguish:
