I wonder if anybody here has checked any GM forums about jerking on their 6 spd automatics. It's the same transmission. The only thing different between GM and Ford is the software. IF GM's are jerking at low speeds also I'd be concerned about engineering and manufacturing issues. If GM's aren't jerking then Ford had better get their software programmers working overtime.

Since we know the Edge transmission was codeveloped with GM - what a revolting thought

Hmmm. I didn't see GM losing $7 billion last year. I don't think there's anything wrong with collaboration between manufacturers. If it produces a better product at lower prices, I'm all for it. Usually religion-like fanatacism over brand loyalty is a sign of a young (ofter read immature) owner. That's not meant as any disrespect, by the way.

How much is it worth to you to save a few hundred dollars or even a thousand over the course of a few years worth of financing when you dont help a company remain in business? Im happy to support a company that produces products I believe in and enjoy. I'd rather not have to buy a Toyota motor vehicle.

I'm sure every Edge customer would love to pay extra just to support the Ford Motor Co.

If Ford can't survive on its own business plan, there are many other car companies, domestic and foreign, that can. These other companies make products as good as if not better than the Ford Motor Co.

I love to pay extra to help a company remain in business.

You're fine, you can see and access the filter very easily. That's the lower side of the front of the vehicle.

 

Great pic! Thanks for the followup.

My Girlfriend might be seeing things again, but she just called and told me that three black edges! were going down Crowchild Tr. in Calgary! One for sure had a Bamer!

Sorry if I appear ignorant, but what's a Bamer?

Has to be better then GM's made in china crap the Equinox and Torrent!!!

Only the engine of the 'Nox/Torrent is made in China. The transmission is from Japan and the whole vehicle is assembled in Canada, just like the Edge!

If anyone has seen the new V6, how difficult will routine maintenance (oil and filter changes) be? Where's the location of the oil filter? Can one access it from the front without jacking?

No white offered

Damn... I like white. Am I the only Edge fan who likes a white vehicle?

Where's the white?
