  3. I just bought my second Edge!

    So I just bought a 2017 Titanium AWD. It's fully loaded...it's got stuff I didn't even know existed!

     

    Traded in a 2013 SEL FWD. It was an awesome car and it'll be missed. I don't believe I had a single issue with it during the 56K miles I owned it. I was a little sad letting it go.

     

    One thing I did notice is that the seats feel more narrow and stiff...dare I say it almost feels like sitting in an airplane seat. Maybe I'll get used to them, but my old Edge had the most comfortable car seats I've ever sat in. Also, there seems to be hardly any head room. I was wondering if my seat was not lowered all the way, but it is.

     

    But those two observations aside, this new Edge is amazing. Really excited to learn about all of the features. Excited about having AWD again. Never really seemed to miss it with the FWD Edge, but I am glad I wont have to worry about driving in snow or on some light off-road stuff anymore. And that sunroof! My old Edge didn't have one. It's been pouring here since I bought it but I can't wait to crank that baby open!

     

    I'll post some pictures when the weather clears up.

     

    How is the ride in the 2017 compare to the 2013 you owned?

    Hello,

    I am new here. I currently drive a 2004 Ford Ranger and it has been a great vehicle. I have owned it for 10 years and I have taken very good care of it. It has not let me down. It has been the best vehicle I have owned.
    In the next 6 to 12 month I will be buying something new I have been looking at the Ford Edge. I had neck surgery last summer and the Ranger tends to beat me up a little bit as far as the ride. Just this past weekend I test drove a 2014 Ford Edge SEL. It had a very smooth comfortable ride. This particular one had the leather heated seats and power everything including the Sync my Ford touch system. It was very nice. I hope I can find something similar when I am ready to buy.

    The questions I have are there many issues with the 2014 Ford Edge's? Has anyone had the water pump problem with the 2014 model year? Has anyone had brake issues? Anything else to keep in mind?

    The other question I have is there a big difference between the 2014 and 2015 considering Ford changed the body style? The salesman I spoke to said the 2014 seemed to have a better ride than the 2015 or newer models. I test drove a few other vehicles that were comparable to the Edge but they did not ride as nice and have all the options.
