  1. Thanks for the info Nick! What type of rims are those?
  2. Wait! This issue has not been resolved for two years? Remember not all dealerships are created equal. I have a dealer that I will not take my edge to at all. Either take it to a different dealer as Akirby suggested. Or ask the service manager/ tech to ride along with you! Once they can ascertain that it is indeed not working properly they can push it up the ladder for resolution.
  3. Morning snmjim, Whenever you get a chance can you re up your 2016 Ford Edge Sport Thermostat R&R pdf? The current link does not work. Thanks in advance.
  4. Squeaky wheel gets the grease. I'm glad it worked out for you!
  5. Here I thought his name was a reference to the group The Pharcyde! LOL
  6. They're out there.....supposedly .....I've never seen one.... perhaps the people who ordered them decided to keep them.... good luck with that!
  7. You can get the 401A W/ cold weather package for less..... If you decide to get an Ford extended warranty . You will save money on the purchase price of the warranty. Especially if its still within the 3yr/ 36K miles bumper to bumper.
  8. If the car is a certified Ford then its basically up in the air at that point. The certification is pretty thorough and in-depth. I'd more than likely skip it. Here is a everything that is reviewed during the certification process. https://www.ford.com/certified-used/about-certified/inspection/ My brother and I flew out to Illinois from NY to get his Edge sport. He returned the favor and flew out with me from Philadelphia to Minnesota to get mine.
  9. The difference is basically what the dealer which one the dealer wants to pay for. They both cover the same type of stuff. Keep in mind they can only cover what is reported. If a accident is not reported, it will not show up. Autocheck and Carfax both resell information from NMVTIS. Due diligence is best. 9/10 dealerships will allow for a independent pre purchase inspection. If they don't want to shop elsewhere. I had a dealer once tell me they do not allow non personnel into the service bay. But they were willing to drive the car within reasonable distance to a mechanic of my choice to inspect it if I was willing to pay for their drivers time. To me that was fair. The dealer ended up deducting the fee from the purchase price. If you are purchasing from a Ford dealership ask for an OASIS report. It will pull up the service history of the vehicle that was done at any Ford dealership. Just like accident history. If the oil was changed at Jiffy Lube it will not show up.
  10. I stand corrected. Wow thats a shit ton of depreciation. I casually looked at some MKX when I was shopping and found them to be 5-8k higher than their counterparts.
  11. My brother has a 2015 sport. He doesn't have a single one of the issues that you may come across. If you see a car on any website that lemon/salvaged title just keep it moving. Some lemon cars are Ford Corporate buy backs or lemoned for other reasons. In regards to maintenance some prefer DIY and others prefer going to the dealership.
  12. All depends on the manufacture of the film. Different shades of grey/ blue etc. Some tints just look darker than others but will meter within 3% spec. The factory windows meters out at 20% +/- 3%. The edge windshield is very large and lets in a ton of light. 20% may look good in the evening, but when the sun is out 15% blends a lot better. Depending on the brand 20% might look good to you. I originally went with 20% and had it removed and went with 15% instead. I went with Llumar Pinnacale ceramic.
  13. If I were in the market, I would look for a 2016 sport. The price difference is negligible depending on the market and demand etc. You get SYNC3 as a bonus and most of the 1st gen bugs sorted out as a plus.
  14. In the USA Lincolns hold their value longer than Fords. 9/10 a similar equipped MKX will cost more than its Edge counterpart.
  15. I see what you did there... no pun intended! Which tint did you use for the tails? Was it hard to apply? How is the light output? Can you take a pic with the lights on?
  16. R1 Concepts may be a worthwhile alternative. The prices are higher on their website and lower on their ebay store. R1 Concepts
  17. Welcome to the group! Nice ride!
  18. They removed the shutters on the Fusions they worked on. The hard pipes look interesting. Definitely does not take a rocket scientist to see the benefit of having them installed.
