I almost ordered my Edge with Ecoboost. Partly at the urging of Fred of Evolution Performance in Aston, PA who raves about his 2.0 in his Fusion. That is until I noticed he pumped 93 octane in it. I looked up the specs on the HP and torque results and I noticed that they were achieved with 93 octane and that Ford recommends 91+. So, I decided that the difference in MPG was not worth the difference in paying the price of 93 octane. Can anyone elaborate if they are running 87 octane and are happy with the performance?

What would think of a Ruby Red Edge with the Grill Painted Satin Black?

I'm going to love everything about the 2014 Ford Edge Limited that I ordered except for one thing. Those cheesy faux wood finish appliques. Has anyone ever attempted to remove those things and can explain what the finish underneath is like? Hopefully just like the SEL. The thing which might keep me from trying it would be if glue is used somehow....
