Chipster, I got the V6 Just gonna have to get used to going from 35 mpg (Mazda 3) to what ever this V6 Edge will give. Oddly, my insurance premiums went DOWN! Nice surprise.

I was super specific with my sales team. I insisted any Edge Mfg'd before August would not do. I also had trim levels, exterior/interior colors too. I wore these guys out. Spent no less than 7 hours at the dealership over 2 days working this out. I know that as a customer, I am a huge PITA! In the end I got exactly what I wanted.

Oh, so that red light glows 100% of the time when its locked? I just assumed it was only for a moment and I was too busy this weekend to stand around and stare at my door lock :-)

Anyone used the Gorilla Guard Locking Lug nuts on their 2015 Edges? I was told their part number 61641 would fit (as long as i have 1.5 or shorter shaft). No idea what size the bolt shaft is on my new Titanium.

Knickerboxer, Did not know that about the locking thing. How do you know its locked? D

Is modifying it from Halogen to HID the better option? Does an aftermarket HID upgrade void any part (or all) of my warranty?

Halogen according to the sticker.

I searched this forum but could not find exactly what I was looking for. I am 5 days in to my new 2015 Titanium Edge. The headlights are dull at best. Is there a QUICK and easy improvement that I could do to increase the brightness of the headlights? Not one that requires wiring, harnesses etc. I know very little about auto lingo so please spell out any acronyms you may use. Is there a plug and play option for brighter headlights? Thanks Denicio

Has anyone tried any In Channel vent visors with any success? If so, care to share which one?

Are these OEM Parts of good quality. I thought I saw somewhere where folks were complaining about the Ford Cargo covers. I've always bought Honda and Mazda OEM covers without hesitation. They were of superior quality. How do these stack up?

Cnd, If its not crazy custom then can you have your dealership find one like you have ordered and do a dealer trade? My sales manager worked his arse off finding the one I got over the weekend. My dealership even 'ate' the cost of having it driven from Mobile AL to Memphis TN (about a 380 mile trip). Mine was built 10/15. D

After a ton of research, a lot of forum chat and a heart to heart with a close pal who is a car spec junkie and loves Fords, I DID IT! I now own a 2015 Ford Edge Titanium! Got the Magnetic color (which is the sexiest color of the line up) with an ebony interior. Its got a build date of 10/15/2015. It was a rainy 4 day Thanksgiving weekend and half of the time it sat out in the rain. It drove in constant rain too....with no leaking issues (so far, fingers crossed). The ride is exceptionally quite in the cabin and the ride is super smooth. This thing, in my opinion, is nothing less than a Mid Sized Luxury SUV. My Ford Touch Assessment: Having come from the Mazda Infotainment system, can easily attest that the MFT is FAR FAR superior and more intuitive. There are some quirky things about it in the Ipod menu but all in all it boots super fast and WORKS! I pushed it hard over the weekend to see if I could get a crash (easy on the Mazda and on the new Santa Fe's that I test drove) but failed at crashing it (insert sound of crowd cheering). I personally like the split screen layout. As a Tech Geek, I feel its a solid and reliable system (so far). The subwoofer works TOO well. Trying to find a nice balance on the eq. This system ROCKS! Now I do with there were a few 'programmable' things. For instance, my Mazda could be programmed that when I get out of the car...once I leave the 2 foot 'zone' for the Keyfob, it would AUTO lock the entire car. I have been driving that Mazda3 for 2 years and this will be a habit I have to break. Meaning having to remember to lock my car! OOPS! Left it unlocked twice so far. But all in all the MFT is a really good infotainment system. Maybe the previous version was a disaster, but this one works (so far). I saw the new Sync 3 in the escapes, and its cool but it seems as reliable as what is in my Edge. The Friends and Family discount was too enticing to pass up which is why I did not wait for the 2016's. I had my dealership work hard for me on finding the RIGHT Edge in the RIGHT configuration. I gave up looking for one with a factory tow package. Those seem rare. I took a print out of the on line warranties with me to the finance guy. After a bit of discussion about it he came very close to the prices and I'd rather help the local guys out. I don't mind someone making a profit off of me...but the initial price was obscene! I am really digging my new Edge and am thankful for all the discussions in this forum that helped me make an informed decision. Denicio

I am a bit confused as to why anyone has to wait for a new edge. I picked up my new Edge with a build date of 10/15 this weekend. It was Made in Canada, delivered to Mobile Alabama and bought by me in Memphis. Its been around the world!!!! Are folks waiting on super custom ordered Edge's which is causing the delay?

Just went to their web site.

Wow! STILL with the leaky A pillars? Must be something overall with this design.

Anderson Koch Ford has SCREAMING deals on Warranties. Holy cow!

As always, you guys ROCK! Thanks for the info.

In years past I always bought my Honda Extended warranty (official Honda) from a dealership that had aggressive pricing. Do you guys and gals know of a good place to get a REAL ford extended warranty? I have seen some site but its hard to know if they are legit and selling real FORD plans. The dealer I was at over the weekend pitched me 2500 for the Ford ESP for 6 years 100K miles. Seems really high. D

Thanks Wingnut, I don't see it mentioned but I wonder if its something so small that it would not be mentioned. Oh well. Time will tell. Thanks again for the info. You are by far one of the best contributors on this forum. Kudo's to you!

Akirby, Nope not at all. In my Mazda It ONLY sounds when your turn BLINKER is ON and someone is in your BLIND SPOT. When your turn blinker is NOT on it just lights up. To me its the smartest tech feature ever!

Does anyone know if the upcoming 2016 Edges will have audible beeps along with the flashing lights on the Blind Spot Monitoring? I have a beep in my Mazda and its a great feature to have.

What is the update number or version I need to be looking for?

That's what was happening. The ipod is loaded with my artwork but showed generic images. Odd. Not sure what was going on.

Is Gracenote fed via Sattalite? I was under a concrete building canopy when I noticed the issue.

This I know but what exactly do I tell them to check for? Exactly what lingo/buzz word do I say that's associated with this specific issue? "He Service Man, please check the TK421 Uprade that gives this car more quads per channel".....that kind of thing. If YOU were asking, how would you ask it, specifically. Thanks
