OK, so I was on a straightaway in palo alto yesterday with a friend of mine on the way to breakfast, when a guy in a black 2007 escalade with a girl in the passenger side pulls up and gives me the "look." The light turns green and we floor it. I'm thinking he's got a lot of power, but he's also got a lot of weight. I get an early lead of about a half car length, from that point on we got and gave a few inches through 60 mph. at 80mph I looked back and he was still right there with me about a half car length behind. his passenger door was lined up pretty good with my left rear tire. a few secs later my friend leans over at the speedometer and goes "Wow, 105 thats the fastest I've driven!" I got to about 110 when we started breaking for the next streetlight. We laughed and waved farewell.

 

I was impressed. The Edge maintained the lead against the Escalade to 110 MPH. At first I was skeptical, but it is what it is.

YOU ARE A FRIGGEN IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!

I recently bought an Edge, live in Arizona, and found the glare on the windshield to be a dangerous situation.

My color is stone.

I did get a Dash cover but it did not make a hugh difference.

While looking at sunglasses I remembered reading a comment on this forum that "polarized glasses" worked.

Since I wasn't ready to trade the Edge and Ford gave a ridiculous response to my concern I bought the polarized glasses.

The effect is TREMENDOUS!

Ford should provide a pair of these with every Edge they deliver.

The glare becomes a non issue.

If you are experiencing a glare problem give this solution a try.

I have a new Edge, with the medium light stone interior.

I live in Arizona and the glare is really irritating and possibly a safety issue.

You can see the entire dashboard in the windshield, like looking thru a net or lace while you are driving.

I am amazed that everyone does not find this to be a serious issue.

Guess I'll have to try polarized glasses.

A dashmat probably does look tacky.

Shouldn't have to do that on a $36K vehicle.
