  Not What I Expected - 2017 Ford Edge
  By Tom Teichgraeber - February 26 - 6:52 pm

  I rented this car for a week and drove it 300 miles in combined highway and city driving. I own an Acura MDX that is a few years old and have been thinking of buying a new car. One that I have considered is the Edge. After driving the Edge Titanium for a week, I find that there are some good and bad aspects to the Edge. The good is that the car seems well made and has a nicely appointed interior. Interior controls are easy to learn and to use. The navi system works well and has a nice large screen. Performance is OK, but acceleration is not particularly quick. I noticed two things that I really did not like. One was visibility out of the car to the front and over the hood and the top front quarter when turning. Compared to the MDX, the hood seems inordinately high and one feels like one is staring out over a very deep dash and long hood from a big, heavy vehicle. The other aspect of this is that the A pillars seem set back too close to the driving position and they noticeably block vision forward and make it harder to see when turning corners. One cannot see a curb or lane marker stripes when turning around a corner (like driving into a driveup lane at Starbucks or just turning on a street) and this gives a sense that you cannot tell where you are turning on the road. The other noticeable thing about the Edge is that it feels ponderously heavy when driving in city traffic. By that I mean that just moving lane to lane feels like one is moving a much larger, heavier vehicle that this SUV really is. The Acura, on the other hand has excellent visibility out the front and drives like a car, although it is a larger vehicle than the Edge. The only way that I can describe it is that it is mega times lighter on its feet and you can see out of it. In my opinion, the Edge is a nice overall package, but the limitations I experienced eliminate it from ownership by me.

  found along the road dead - 2017 Ford Edge
  By Roland C Young - March 30 - 12:14 am

  WE were impressed the car until it had 1900 miles on it. The transmission started acting up then went out. The dealer said they would rebuild it but decided to install a new one in. Hope full after two week in the shop it will be ok. If I have any more trouble I will be going back to a GM I never had any problems with GM car or truck. I was a loyal GM employee for 42 years this was the first ford I ever bought. We liked the style an size of the ford edge that is why we bought it.
