  1. The things I like..

     

    BAMR

    Sync

    Power.....still haven't hit the max speed yet.

    AWD

     

    The body kit that makes people ask what kind of car is that. And the paint job....Black with 20" Chrome rims looks awesome after a fresh wash in the sunshine.

  2. One thing to add to this from being a salesman and working in a Ford dealer would be that you can buy an ESP anytime. As long as your in the factory warrenty its the same price if you buy it now or later. Drive it for a few years and if it gives you any trouble then extend it. Why pay for something your not going to use for the next 3 years.

  3. I agree with the gas struts but really....how often are you opening the hood for this to really matter. The HID headlight come on the MKX, and besides the heated rear seats and then Lincoln look thats the only difference between the Edge and MKX so I think we can give it to the Lincoln CUV's. I totally agree about the rear bumper protector, mine is black and got scratched right away. Vista roof switches are not illuminated...how often do you open it in the dark? And when it comes to the nav and the POI's...how many will complain when Ford has a new disk but wants $500 for it...I am sure a lot will just deal with it. The only thing I would like changed and I know its a safety issue but I would like a one touch full close of the Vista roof but I doubt that will ever happen.

  4. Well I just got a ticket last week for $109 for not having a front plate mounted on the Edge. What kind of cop pulls someone over at 8:30 on a saturday morning as I pull in to stop for breakfast. He gave me a 15 min chat about how its the dealers fault and I should get them to pay for not selling me a bracket. I work for the dealer and I have a bracket...forgot to tell him that part. I will fight it and see what happens but I still don't have my plate mounted.

  5. Awesome idea thanks!! I just need to find something Canadian related as it seems this is a US based program.

     

     

    There are a few sites like leasebusters.com and leaseboyz.com but the best is craig's list and it doesn't cost a penny or even your local paper. I know the websites cost $$$ and they don't always work but the paper or craig's list have worked really well for others I have helped.

  6. So I've had my Edge since Sept and really enjoy it.

     

    I put quite a few miles on and the one area I'm not happy with is its milage. Gas is possibly going up to $1.30 - 1.40/litre this summer and if it does, I don't want this vehicle.

     

    Anyone have experience taking back a leased vehicle prior to its end date? I know this may vary from region to region but I'm in western Canada.

     

    Thx

     

     

    Well not only do I work for a Ford dealer but I am the lease manager in western Canada so I can answer the question for you. You can bring a lease back to Ford at anytime....BUT...the contract has to be paid out or the Edge has to be bought back by the dealer. When a dealer says we can take care of the payments if you get another one...someone is paying for the last payments, most of the time its the customer. Sometime Ford will offer rebates to pull customers out of there lease's early but its not happening as often now. One way to get out of a lease really early is to get someone else to take it over and then they can finish off the lease and you can get something else. Let me know if this answers your question.

  7. I have the kit on my Edge and they are the stock fog lights behind the front skirt. The kit was very easy to install and only a few times do you need 2 people. If you order it unpainted you will spend a lot at a paint shop to get the base coats applied. The kit comes as raw plastic and is a pain to get anything to stick to it at first.
