The ordered Edge SEL finally came in and we picked it up on Saturday. See here for some pics: http://www.fordedgeforum.com/topic/10698-any-forum-memebers-in-bay-area-nor-cal/ X Plan price never changed, $33,750. We financed thru the dealer at 1.90% for 6 years, better than our credit union. Going with 1.9%, the incentives were different ($2250 or so), but payment and total paid is much lower due to difference in interest (1.9 vs. 4.24%).

We ordered it today. Will get 'DORA' confirmation next week sometime. Got exactly what we want without all the extras. Found out exactly what the difference in plans is, including Costco membership club pricing (excellent, if you want something from dealer stock). Used the 'X' plan; $141 over total dealer invoice. Eligible for $3500 in incentives, if they finance for at least 4 months before we refi at lower rate. SEL, SEL Appearance pkg, tow pkg, roof rack, equipt. grp 204A. Deep Impact Blue. Just like the photo at ford.com (blue grille/black 20" wheels).

Thanks, Dingo. I just found out it's going to be "X" plan.

Thanks for the replies. I've gotten the prices at Edmund's and Kbb.com. I've contacted three dealers. Haven't gotten a price yet. They all just want us to come and test drive what they have. Local dealer doesn't even have any in stock. My wife's employer has a contact who may be able to get us a pin number to get in on one of the programs, not sure which. But the contact is at a certain dealer, so we would have to go with them, I imagine. Going in to talk with him on Friday. Can you order a vehicle using the A or Z plan, or do you have to choose from what's in stock? Thanks again.

Hi everyone. I signed up here several months ago and have been trying to learn more about the Edge. My wife (it'll be her vehicle) and I are about ready to buy and I have some questions. I have used the 'search' feature, with no luck. First, can anyone recommend a good dealer in the San Francisco East Bay Area? (I've also posted this in my local forum here.) We are in Livermore, and not too sure about Liv. Ford. We have bought two F-150's at Fremont Ford and have always been given good deals. A friend was happy with her used Explorer purchase at the Ford Store in San Leandro. I have sent internet inquiries and have gotten a mixed bag of answers. Mostly, 'here is what we have in stock,' and no interest in what we actually want. Second, I have searched dealer inventories using a link I found here. No one has an SEL with the SEL Appearance package in stock. And I found only 1 Sport. What is the last date to order what we want? (I found a thread on this forum with a link which says 'last date "TBD;"' any updates?) Third, we have a small travel trailer. I have read that the factory tow package hitch has a 2" receiver now; is this correct? Our preference would be the SEL with the SEL Appearcance package, tow package, roof rack, and maybe one or two other options. We do NOT want MY FORD SYNCH and a whole bunch of other options, but that is all I can find in dealer stocks (less the appearance package). So that's why we're thinking we will probably need to order. Any helpful factual info would be appreciated. Paul

Sounds good. Our goal is to order and Edge around next June; seems like so far away! But it will be here before we know it...

Hello everyone. My name is Paul and I live in the San Francisco East Bay Area. My wife Margaret will need a new car soon and we are planning on getting a new Edge, probably the middle of 2013. I found this forum while researching the vehicle. I've been looking around for awhile, and there is lots of good info I've wondered about, so here I am to stay. Right now Marg drives a Toyota RAV4. She also has a 1975 Morris Mini (think original Mini Cooper) we brought home from New Zealand a few years ago. I drive a 2001 Ford SVT Lightning and a 2008 Corvette convertible. I'm sure the info I find here will help me select the right Edge for us.
