I've heard (maybe just another persons personal experience) they they do come on if the outside temp is below a certain level. And...they come on at a very low level. Not the same level as when you manually turn them on. This is done as a safety feature so that they don't get too hot when the vehicle is unattended. It's more just meant to heat up quicker when you actually get into the car and are sitting on the seat.

Negligible when you're already spending over $1k on tires.....

I did! Had them on about a week and I'm loving them! Can't say the ride is too much smoother, but it's sooooo much quieter. The grip feels good...had a lot of rain lately and the tires are performing great. Just feels good to know that I have some new tread for winter!

Thanks tintman-I'm talking with my dealership now about price matching the amount I have found online. If they can do that, I'll have mine installed this weekend! These pirelli's are getting louder and louder it seems!

Tintman, have you had the Continental's installed yet? How are you liking them??

Funny you say that...the more research I do, the more I lean towards the Continental's!

Looking forward to the feedback. I'm about to buy a set and deciding between those and the Yokohama's.

It's a smoother ride with the smaller wheels, but you'll never beat the looks of those 22's!

I wasn't a fan of the 2015's until I saw this pic. Looks great!!

Pro clip. You'll play a little more but they fit and look great

Maybe a dumb question or something you have already considered, but have you thought about how annoying that would be in traffic?

Although expensive, they are worth the money, especially to battle salt in the winter. Best protection out there.

Check out weather tech floor liners and husky weather beater floor liners. Either is those will do that job...I prefer the weather techs, but either are excellent and fit well. Just make sure you're looking at the floor liners and not the mats-the liners go up the side wall and protect much better. I have the same issue here in Cleveland!

Hard to take this post serious without some facts here.....

I just traded in a 2011 CTS coupe for my 2013 Edge Sport. The electronics in the Ford are worlds ahead (granted, the new model CTSs have updated electronics). I loved the look of the CTS coupe, but I'm not regretting my decision!

Post some pics!

I've always just used a hair drier. Unless it's been on there for a long time, that should do the trick. I'm always worried that a heat gun will melt the paint (I'm not familiar with using one). You'll always get a little residue, but something like goo gone (as previously mentions) takes it right off. Or, just ask your dealer to take it off...unless they are paying you to advertise, it shouldn't be put on the vehicle....being sarcastic of course. I just hate that they put those things on there!

Finally, a voice of reason. Everyone gets so worked up about this issue. If Ford spent a bunch of time working on this issue, I'm sure everyone would be screaming about how they probably have bigger issues they should be working on.

Sounds to me like you should be upset with the dealer, not ford. If I were you, I would ask them for a list of required services and corresponding costs. Those prices sound crazy to me if you only got an oil change and washer fluid.

Just got done with the clay bar and wax!

Anyone here have any experience with a FWD edge sport in the snow? I'm currently in the market for a new car and I've found a great looking 2013 blue edge sport, but it's FWD. Living in Cleveland, we can get some nasty snow. Just curious how they handle.
