I didn't want to waste my time and gas, so that was the purpose of calling. Of course, with 22-inch rims I really had to avoid potholes. I would definitely recommend this dealer to a friend. See Edge trim levels compared. In true crossover fashion, the Edge is built upon the same platform as Ford's Fusion sedan. What the sport suspension means in the real world is that the Edge Sport rides marginally harder than the regular Edge.
Really like the Ford Edge, definitely roomier and lots of leg room. Vehicle Details The Edge's more familiar interior styling doesn't quite live up to the expectations set by its cutting-edge sheetmetal, but it's nonetheless attractive, comfortable and spacious. He seemed disinterested and said he'd call me back. They contacted me back within minutes and made time the same day to come and look at the car. I told him where to check for the sticker. The Ford Edge manages to look a little different in a class of vehicles that tend to all blur together. The view from the side is marked by a large but subtle rear spoiler, short front and rear overhangs and well-defined wheel arches framing 17-inch aluminum wheels.
The lack of a barely-fitting third row allows the Edge to offer ample legroom for all occupants plus enough space behind the second row for a good amount of their gear. It has fairly good handling, a smooth ride, plenty of power and a spacious interior. And I told him thank you and hung up. The Edge isn't for them. Examples include a six-way power driver's seat, a fold-flat front passenger seat and heated mirrors.
Each rear seat can also be folded manually using an industry-first single-hand release or automatically with an available EasyFold electro-mechanical remote release accessible from the rear cargo area. I felt very confident making a purchase through this dealer. From either the front or the side, the Edge's blunt nose and bright, overchromed grille are the dominant design features. Currently the Ford Edge has a score of 8. And because that tuning also makes the ride more firm, you'll want those roads to be smooth ones. The most striking feature on the vehicle are the enormous 22 inch polished aluminum wheels.
Safety The Edge gets a rating of Good — the highest rating — in Insurance Institute for Highway Safety frontal-offset and side-impact crash tests. Like most newer so-called crossover designs, the 2010 Ford Edge rides and drives more like a car—a tall wagon—than a sport-utility vehicle, while its overall packaging is a good substitute for those who have moved on from an Explorer or Expedition. In addition to the 3. At cruising speeds, we were impressed by an appreciably quiet cabin and a notably comfortable ride. The combination has plenty of power to move the Edge briskly, even with a full load or on steep hills, but it still doesn't come with the manual controls that are the sign of a vehicle with sporting intentions.
The sporty appearance not only turns heads but will leave gawkers jaws glued to the floor. The Ford Edge doesn't corner as aggressively as its sporty appearance may suggest. For those who don't spend their time studying wheel sizes, let me offer this layman's translation of how big a 22-inch rim is: It's embarrassingly large. It has been serviced by our mechanic and has clean oil and the both the front and rear brakes are at 90%. Also, I had a very hard time telling exactly where the front of the car was — and that's not just me, either; all my passengers said the same thing.

It can comfortably swallow a nuclear family, even Lassie and Garfield, as well as a week's worth of groceries or travel bags.
