Same here cept Costco did not have the DM-V2 in a 20" rim, so had to go get them from a specialty tire shop.....still well worth the money.
-
Keeping it in Drive mode would only really help with fuel mileage on the highway. In town I keep it in sport mode 95% of the time.
-
I was talking purely highway miles.....and I usually get between 29 to 31 mpg on highway cruising (in drive mode) at 75 mph....in (Sport mode) I believe I was getting 26 mpg....all over a 1.5 hour drive one way (1.5 hours in Sport mode and 1.5 hours in Drive mode). Granted around town I dont think it makes much of a difference(driving style would be the huge factor).
-
yes, that revel audio system would be a huge improvement over the edge sony system. What about the magnetic variable suspension modes.....what are your thoughts on that feature? My wife really liked the push button gear selection.
-
Love the colors! sync 3...very nice! Sweet interior, much prefer that over the sport all black.....but I love my sport 2.7 tho.
-
Not sure about the 6th gear issue....guess it all depends on revs.....but back to the fuel millage....I was cruising at 75 mph and forgot it was in sport, then I checked my fuel millage for the whole trip back (in D mode) and the difference was around 4 mpg.
-
yes.....I experienced this first hand....gas mileage will suffer around 3 to 4 mpg.
-
if those are the oem black rims for the edge sport, then they are a 21" rim and not a 20".....just fyi.

2015+ common area - a place to say anything (feel free to pin)

second click on with the oval rpm....youll see the engine temp next to the fuel gauge. -

Through the MFT displays beside the physical speedo, you can configure your display to show engine temp, tire psi, range, tract control, rpm and fuel.....oil psi and voltage....no. -

You control the ambient lighting through the MFT.....there are no physical controls. -

Very nice....looks similar to the setup Im saving for. Tough to beat the ALP system, as Ive already been nailed twice by laser in the last year. -

what kind of laser jammer did you go with. Been looking at the ALP....in all my research it looks to be the one most effective against the Dragon eye lidar(toughest laser system to jam). -
Replacement floor mats (how to combat that Canadian salt?)
cds71 replied to roadkill401's topic in 2013 Edge & MKX
WeatherTechs are awsome....just think where all that water and salt would go with just the all weather mats from ford....Id guess half would be in the carpet and not the mat. They are a must for us Canadians. -
White 2016 loaded edge sport
cds71 replied to specialk4523's topic in 2015+ Edge & MKX Generation II
Awesome....the wife and I have the exact same one...and we love it.....truly a beautiful cuv, with performance to match. We really liked the subtle tricolor pearl in the paint. The sun really brings out a satin luminous quality to it. We've had ours just under a year...LOL(we've had two actually....the first one had the leak), and driving it never gets old. Usually my wife gets it as a daily driver for her commute to work, but I always jump at the chance to get behind the wheel. -
Beautiful Edge sport....from the moment I laid eyes on the new sports I loved the look....best looking CUV out there.....period Id look into the weathertech floor mats.....they really protect the floor carpet from winter. Sorry to hear about the rattles.....my wife and I have had two 2015 edge sports now...and neither rattled....we currently have 14K km on our current one and not a single peep....quietest vehicle Ive ever driven.
-
You wont be disappointed....the sport is a blast to drive.....Ive had mine almost 1 year and I still love driving it.....the performance in the 2.7 twin turbo never gets old.

I get the same thing from my wife(I just recently got the one finger signal from a turbo Veloster I smoked).....the only time she entertains my desire to "own my lane" is when a perf diesel truck is wanting my lane and my wife hates being behind those coal burners....so I usually have lots of fun with them.....havent found one yet that out performs the edge. -

VBOX TESTED: 91 LMS/K&N FILTER AGGRESSIVE + SHIFT TUNE
cds71 replied to GT500R's topic in Transaxle (FWD)
The tranny in the new sport is the 6f55(much stronger than the 6f50).....guys are pushing 500+ft/lb torque through them with SHO's and not having any problems. Here is the difference between the 6f55 and the 6f50 http://www.automobilesreview.com/uploads/2009/02/ring-gear-for-6f-55-transmission-versus-6f-50-transmission.jpg -

How do you feel the edge did in its first test.....Not like you picked an easy mark. Stock it will pull a 4.5 0-60. My first test was a 2015 frs, and they look fast (almost looks a little like a gtr)....needless to say I smoked it, but later I found out that they are a 7 sec 0-60. -

contact Tricia.....On this forum she is one of the ford service reps for USA FORD. She was very helpful in putting me in contact with the right customer service people. -
look in systems to see if it is an admin key....if there has been no admin key issued then that might be why you cant access that part of the system.
-
remsleep....um just out of curiosity, what fob are you using. Are you using the admin fob? or the mykey fob.
