So I guess were going to take this.... My Wife spoke to the dealer about options we werent interested in, and they agreed to drop to $36544. I knew she could convince me to do stuff, but I guess i underestimated her persuasiveness over others.:wacko: Edit: I forgot, we got $1000 credit for being Costco members...

Ive been offered a 2011 Edge Sport (38070.00) in White (+495) with cargo acc. pack(+290) vision pack (+395) all weather mats (+75) backlit doorsill(+295) Vista Roof (+1595) Driver entry(+895) NAV(+795) destination (+775) ------------------------------------------ FOR A GRAND TOTAL OF $43680. Theyre giving me invoice $40678 - 3750 in rebates and cash, ($37129) plus paying my last lease payment left on my 2008 limited ($340) Take it? or leave it? It sounds fair to me and Id have the Sport by Friday.

Get a Verizon android based phone and an app called easyroot. Then download another app called easytether. It turns the phone into a hotspot you can share with everyone.

You fail to mention an asking price, and where youre located. Both important so youre not lowballed and insulted when the bidding starts and for pickup, since youre most certainly not going to ship these.

Welcome to the forums, youll find a lot of great people and information here. Best of luck with your new ride, it looks great and I too like the look of dark wheels on your Earthen Edge. Cheers!:beerchug:

I swear by Quietcar.net. They have a visco-elastic membrane you spray on. The difference is amazing and I thought it was worth the cost. Its a lot of labor to get the seats and carpet out to spray the floors, but it deadens the sound. The insides of your doors make the most noise. Theyre like speaker boxes for road noise, so start with them and see what you think, whether or not you need more or if youre satisfied. Also if you use STUFF expanding foam in frame voids, you have a major reduction in noise as well. The weight is not noticeable, and alot of high end manufacturers do this at the factory to deaden road noise. In the edge there is a space formed sort of like a boxed frame. If you have a tow hitch you can see where its attached to your vehicle. All that hollow space? Just another place for vibration to be amplified. if you fill in all the little spaces, spray the insides of your door panels, youre edge will be as silent as a the inside of a coffin. I dont have any interest in quietcar, but since using it on my 94 toyota MR2 (very loud interior) Ive been a true believer. I did only what i outlined above and my MR2 is as quiet as any sedan even with its low profile tires.

Dont forget, you can always go to your local autobody guy, have him order the front and rear facias and lower rocker panels and add them on painted to your body color. This way you have the look of the Sport, but with HIDs, Homelink, Adaptive cruise, and tow package and whatever size wheels you fancy. Best of both worlds.

No dealer cash? no incentives? or are they keeping that?

Of course if everyone just went to their manual for everything, why would We need a forum? Were all here to answer each others questions right? Not just telling each other to read their manual... sheesh

Im wondering if the 2012 or 13 models will have the V6 Ecoboost? Maybe 5000lb tow limit or better, to best others in the class? Ford claims that it will be in use in up to 80% of its models by 2013:stats:

OEM cant even be compared to the WeatherTechs. The OEMs look like dollar store mats compared to the WT's. Spend the extra $40, youll be glad you did.

Ill jump in. I have an 08. the seats are supposed to stay on until you shut them off or shut off the car. take it to your dealer and let them troubleshoot it. should still be under warranty so take care of that quick. sounds like a bad circut or an overheating element.

Definitely, YES!

Its all fun until someone calls the fun Police! guess that's me... Unfortunately different states are cracking down on this now. NJ is. We were just issued a statement to look out for tinted head and tail lamps. looks nice on cars I do admit, but when its against the law there's not much leeway.

Weathertech inside the window channel are the only way to go. They're quality, don't look aftermarket, are simple to install, and they are made in America!

just buy a set of HID bulbs and ballasts and swap them in. Everyone says you cant, i finally did and they work perfect, and theyre even aimed correctly to keep from dazzling oncoming drivers with the extra light. look around on the net and on this forum because they can be had for as little as $90 shipped

As was my guess when my cousin was fixing his Edge, the new 2011 panels will fit an earlier model. if the radiator support needs to be changed, then the hood, fenders, grill and everything else will bolt right up. Body shop had one in and had the front end stripped off and it was exactly the same as earlier models, so when my buddy saw it he called to say "remember you were asking?" Well, the answer is YES. By the way, since he wasnt sure, he fixed his Edge with the appropriate years parts.

Sorry to hear about your BAMR troubles. Mine had been fine from day 1 in 2008. I love it, and use it alot. now my kids are actually noticing it as well and i open up the screens when theyre in the car so they can stare out the roof. They love to see the screens roll up so I make sure to always close them. Hope it all gets sorted out for you.

Pictures would be great

Cant wait to see the photos.:shades:

Tony, Good call. The AWD is absolutely great in wet weather and snow. I wouldn't want my wife to go out in foul weather with the kids without it. Yeah its great to stay home in bad weather, but we all know that's not practical, so this gives me peace of mind when its needed. I actually had the opportunity to drive my Edge through our driver training course at our police academy and I was very impressed with the wet weather grip and traction of the Edge. When the front tires began to plow in a hard lock turn while accelerating the Edge pulled right through the turn. Our Dodge chargers with stability control would brake certain wheels and correct our near skids pretty well too, but the Edge hung in there great for an SUV.

Sweet looking Sport! If you need a PBA card now with that 305HP motor let me know.

Pictures pictures pictures! We all love pictures here.
