Edgy Girl Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 (edited) Hi everyone.. after a painful 6 week wait - I picked up my beautiful Edge today - Creme Brulee, Charcoal, AWD SEL plus with BAMR and NAV. So.. let's clear the issues out of the way. 1. Liftgate - light and super easy to open. Im 5"1 - absolutely no problems whatsoever. 2. Brakes - the felt fine. I got a quick response from the pedal. Absolutely confident they are fine. 3. Glare - yes you can the see aluminum bezel - buts its not in the line of vision and it did not bother me whatsoever. Overall, great vehicle, drove superbly, quiet, great acceleration - no doubts in my mine - the spirit of a sports car. I love it Pics are posted in the member gallery - more to come ....

Edgygirl, I absolutely agree with all of your comments above. I was used to pulling the liftgate of my Expedition so the Edge is a breeze. I would say the only issue is the location of the handle. My Expedition had a strap that as you were pulling on you could kind of bend your hand. But I think the Edge is a breeze.....I'm really falling in love with mine!

Houndkeeper Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 I am so glad it finally came, Edgy!! Woohoo! It took me almost 8 weeks before I put my dogs in the back though.....as soon as I got them home I was out there getting the nose prints, slobber and hair out of there!

Former Ford ZM Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 And did you notice how easily the liftgate closes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgy Girl Posted May 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 oh ya forgot that part... the salesman/owner was there with me.. and I looked at him said... let me see this liftgate.... opened and closed - looked at him. - said "are you kidding me.. they are complaining about that?" Its light snaps shut easy... Day 2 is even better than Day 1 - that is one sweet vehicle on the highway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aggie79 Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 Glad to hear your enjoying your Edge! I think the Creme brulee w/ Char. is a great color combo. I found that the more I get a chance to drive it the more I like it, I just have to sneek it from my wife for a chance to be able to drive it. :shades: I think she likes her new car alot.
