Nothing looks sexier than an edge with a full roof rack system and fairing!

I just bought a 2013 edge with 18k miles on it. Went to test ride the car at the dealership before buying it the "Tire Low Pressure" check was on... the salesman said they just filled the tires and it takes a little while for the TPMS to "sense" the new pressure. I agreed to buy the edge, but I wanted the tires checked... I put $ down to hold the car. They agreed. I came back 2 days later to buy the edge and took it for another test ride and right away the TPMS check was on... I got out of the car and asked them if they check the tire like I requested. The saleman told me they did... I asked them to check the tires again while I wait. 15 minutes later the car was back from service and "fixed". I looked at the tires and noticed a HUGE ROPE PLUG in the side of the left rear tire (plugs are illegal in my state)... like fireworks, you can buy them but can't use them. I informed them that rope plugs are illegal and I would only buy the edge if they replaced the tire. They agreed. I came back 2 days later when they told me the edge was ready to go. They had rotated the tires... and the right front tire HAD A HUGE PLUG!!! I threw a pissed off hissy fit in the middle of the sales floor for all to hear. the Salesman conceded to get me a new tire and I could return the next day to buy the edge. I did... I checked the tires and they looked good, the TPMS was off and all was good... so I bought the edge. (very happy with it btw!!) but the next day the TPMS check came on. I checked the tires and the left rear was at 19psi!! I filled it, and 2 days later it was back down to 18psi. I took it to a tire center (right next door to my work... and personal friends) and they found that the dealer had TURNED THE TIRE AROUND!!!! So the plug was out of view. I called the dealer and they claimed the tire was new and I must have damaged the tire and refused to fix it. I had my buddy (owner of the tire center) call the dealer and inform them that plugs were illegal in our state and he had photos of the tire and was going to report them to the DMV... the dealership paid the tire center FULL RETAIL to buy me a new tire and install it. I am dumbfounded that they broke the law, and cost themselves more money than needed just because they thought they could fool me. The next morning I showed up at the dealership and was sitting in the salemans office when he showed up to work.... he turned pale white when he saw me... I made a point to yell as loud as I could in his office. I walked out with a free cargo mat, keychain, ford t-shirt, ford polo shirt, ford jacket and window delfectors... I love my new edge btw!

Wow. that impressive! I'm hard pressed to get 100K in 10 years on a car. I had a '03 pick-up that I got rid of this year with 102K... 200k would take me 20+ years to achieve... can't imagine keeping a car that long. I'm hoping my Egde will last me 120k, that will take me to 53 years old and time for a new car.

Hello! Name is Todd, and just bought my first Ford... a 2013 Edge in Suede White. I own a bicycle store, and it seems like everyone in the bike business I know owns a Subaru or a VW... needed a new car and got the Edge. My wife and I rented an Edge 2 years ago on ski trip to Colorado and I just fell in love with it! Been lusting for one ever since. Finally, my 2004 Tundra pick-up was ready to be retired and the Edge was the only car I was interested in. Pretty much the easiest car sale ever! My wife just bought a Nissian Rogue... nice and all, and she loves it... but the Edge is roomier, way quieter and a smoother ride. After 19 years with 4x4 trucks I find the Ford AWD to be awesome in our harsh winters, and the mpg's are much more wallet friendly... not to mention the comfort, more room in my garage, and my 6 month old brittany loves the back seat!
