Magnetic Edge

Here are the stats from a quick run I made with a VBOX just to see what she would do since there are no stats out yet. 2015 Edge Sport AWD 550 miles 1/4 tank of 93 octane Driver only Outside temp 44F Shifter in drive Brake torqued to 2000rpm to build boost 0-60 5.9 seconds 1/4 mile 14.4 @ 100.3 It kinda launched soft then took off. Brake torqued to 1500rpm 0-60 5.8 seconds 1/4 mile 14.3 @ 100.6 Much better launch this time

Make sure it's not the rear seat belt hitting the trim panel.

Drivers Assistance pkg is still listed as late availability. The fog lights are only for the China market.

Did you order yours or buy from stock? I remember seeing a white Sport when I was deciding on which color to get. It was between silver, white and electric spice. Last of my vin is 05867. Wonder if ours are close and possibly brothers.

My salesman was the same way. I was in and out in less than an hour. Their service area is also impressive, you pull in and they have about 20 angled parking spots and all the service writers are just inside the glass doors. That place sells about 60 to 70 cars a DAY.

Got mine from the same place! Great dealership and #2 in the country for sales. That place is always busy.

Hopefully they will come out with a fix for the hatch slam. One of the downsides to having one of the first run of an all new vehicle. Other than that I am very impressed with the overall quality with mine, especially since the vin is under 6000.

My roof developed a slight rattle too which I noticed on Fri while it was open. It was coming from where the glass mounts to the mechanism at the front drivers side, there are two torx fastners per mount. It was just a minor tick while moving the glass up and down, think it was a little metal on metal contact. I fixed it myself with a tiny bit of lubricating oil where the two metal pieces come together, just a few drops on the inside of the bracket with the glass open. Have you noticed when closing the rear hatch with the button, it will come down a little hard at the very end before it latches shut? Not really hard, just not smoothly like I'm used to with other vehicles.

Even if it is I'm not concerned as it looks to only happen on higher mileage cars and mine is only a 2 year lease. Problem solved.

Oh the humanity!!!

I doubt it since you can get a hitch with the handsfree lift gate on the Titanium. The sensors are on each side of the center any way.

I was looking at that myself as I have a trailer I would like to use with it. The rear valence would have to be trimmed to fit a hitch. Or get a bumper cover from a Titanium to use but then the exhaust would have to be modified as only the Sport has integrated outlets and are separate from the bumper cover. Easiest way would be trimming it for a hitch.

I didn't get the 21" wheels as they weren't available to order until just recently, as were the summer tires. The summer tires are and additional option on top of the 21" wheels which come standard with all-season Pirellis. I would love to get my hands on a set of those wheels though. The standard wheels just don't look as mean as the 21's.

I still can't get over how quiet this thing is. I don't know if it's just the overall sound deadening or the Active Noise Canceling but it is solid. Not a squeek or rattle to be heard either which is impressive for an all new vehicle. Beside the awesome engine, the Vista roof is my favorite feature and worth every penny. Really opens up the vehicle.

I keep meaning to test this, but then I forget...

My Sport is a blast to drive. Power comes on strong and doesn't let up. Some poor sap in a newer Focus sedan found that out the hard way when we both went from a light to a merging freeway on-ramp and he thought he could take me off the line. (WB I-96 ramp from NB Tele if you know the area)

Only reason I was asking is the Edge now has "smart charging USB" ports that put out enough power to charge a tablet.

That looks like the exact one I was going to get before I decided on the Sport. Same exterior, interior, wheels, trailer tow. Curious as to why you use the 12V to charge with a USB cord?

Removed the Ecoboost badge below the Sport badge for a cleaner look.

Exactly, just 3 raised lines on the right of the handle where you touch to lock. Another thing I noticed with the new system is there is no physical lock plunger that sticks up on the inside door panel, just a little red light when it's locked. So when the doors lock it's not as loud so you have to listen a little closer to make sure they lock.

Actually what I meant was all 4 door handles have the sensor in them to lock/unlock just by touch when you have the keyless fob in your pocket. Earlier years only have the sensor in the front doors.

I came from a '13 Flex which had neither of those even though the gauger cluster was the same.

So after driving my Sport for 2 days now here are a few things I like and don't like about it. Likes: Looks fantastic in silver Giant panoramic roof Very quiet inside with almost no road noise. Quieter than my '13 Flex Limited Rides firm but well damped, even on Mi roads Suede seat inserts New keyfob design shows a green light if the vehicle has successfully remote started, red if not Effortless power, should increase with more miles and break-in Gauge cluster now shows actual tire pressures and AWD power distribution Storage bins next to spare tire Can lock/unlock vehicle by all doors now, not just the front (keyless vehicles) Fit and finish is perfect Dislikes: Turn signal stalk is the same one used in the Focus and actually stays up or down, unlike all other newer Fords that return to center after signaling. Will take some relearning. Center console really deep and takes some digging to find something Not a huge fan of the standard Sport wheels, wish the 21" dark ones were available at production start up (maybe find someone in a couple months to trade) Pant leg catches door sill when getting out, not good for dark pants in the winter Overall I really love this thing and am very happy with my decision over the MKC.

It was meant as a joke, I have since deleted it.

Yes they do. When you turn on the parking or headlights they dim just a little. They are one of my favorite features of the Edge. I only wish the headlights had the accents too like the '16 Explorer. The China version of the Edge has LED headlights with the accents in them. Too bad they currently don't pass our DOT standards.
