If you find yourself unhappy with the new ones, I just purchased WeatherTechs. Kinda expensive, expecially for floor mats, but they seem like they'd be fail-proof, and they look good.

Just ordered the WeatherTech's. Now to do my research on some tint. Oh, and I drove in it at night for the first time. I must say, I'm not a fan of its low-beam headlights.

Newcomer to newcomer, welcome! We both bought Edges on the 30th!

The blue iws my favorite, and a year newer. I would have them try and get the mustard stain out. If not, you can get fabric/carpet spray paint and try and cover it over............the shit works. Yesterday, my wife went for chlorine for the pool, forgot to put old towels in her trunk, and "bleached out" the custom plush carpeted trunk mat in her MKS. The containers must have had chlorine on the bottoms. Went to Pep Boys auto store, got the spray in dark charcoal, and it worked wonders. Almost a perfect match, and saved us from divorce court. :kiss:

Because a can of spray paint is cheaper than counseling LOL. Well, if it comes to be a bother than I definitely will, but I'd like to get WeatherTech's digitally-fit floor liners, in which case I'd never notice it. I ended up getting the '08 for $19k flat. Rear sensors are going in today and I pick it up tonight!

Hello, all! This is not my first post, but I did figure it'd be nice to introduce myself a little. I'm a recent high school graduate, and in the fall I'll be seeking a degree, probably in Economics. I've installed speakers in a few different cars and designed, built, and installed subwoofer enclosures for a few friends. **the username is car audio derived, but take it sexually if ya wish** lol. Not to cause discussion, but a huge part of my time is donated to activism and campaigning. I spent much of my spring helping a grassroots Ron Paul campaign. Recently, I've been circulating petitions to put gay marriage and medicinal marijuana on the ballot in my state. None of this is at all relavent to joining this forum, so here's the big news: As of yesterday, I own a 2008 Ink Blue Ford Edge SEL :hyper:

So howdy, and peace to all the other members. I'm definitely excited to be here.

All the shots were taken on the dealer's lot before they took it in for detailing and to install rear back-up sensors. I go pick it up, tonight!

Right on. Actually, my dad owns a 2010 Taurus and got t-boned at ~40 miles an hour. Car took it like a champ. Doors still worked, no interior damage, minor scratches on the wheels, and just a few huge dents to the exterior of the door. No airbags. I don't know that the "minor collision" would be that big of a deal to me. I'll definitely look into it, though, thanks!

I'll be taking my grandpa, an ex-mechanic, to the shop with me tomorrow to look it over a bit closer. It won't guarantee a problem-free car, but sure beats going in blind.

Howdy, y'all! I've been creeping the forum a little recently, and decided I needed to make a presence. After a lot of thought, research, and flip-flopping, I decided I wanted to purchase an Edge. I'll be going to school in the fall and the little brother will need my current, hand-me-down to practice driving and eventually use for himself. I've gotten two deals worked out with two dealers for different Edges, and thought it'd be smart to run it by a community of owners. Here's my options:

The dealer wouldn't budge on the price, but I did get him to throw in installing reverse sensors. Tomorrow, I may try to get $19k flat, with the sensors and floor mats. There is a foot-long mustard-color stain on the second-row's floor. I'm not too huge on the interior color, nor the wheels, but the blue is pure sex. Only scratch on the thing is on the back bumper as if someone lifted something out of the trunk and scraped the key. No biggie. After all the fees and taxes, it will come to ~$19,050. Oh, and this one come with a 3 year, 100,000 mile powertrain warranty.

This salesman was the most down to earth guy. He was great. Talked him down to $16,300, and after fees and taxes, it ends up being ~$17,700. I don't like the color as much, but the black interior is nice. The chrome wheels look real nice, but there are a few more dings on this than the blue '08. This Edge does not come with a warranty.

Currently, I'm leaning toward the blue '08. Good deal?
