Just adding my 2 cents worth on mileage.
Drove my wife's 2008 fwd SEL from the San Francisco bay area to Los Angeles last week. She has the Tricoat White with 17" wheels. We had about 4100 miles on it before starting. Driving down on highway 101 which is mostly flat, doing 65MPH with 4 of us and luggage and A/C half the time, we averaged 25.8 MPG. We actually got 28.5 MPG on one stretch but then we hit LA traffic. Driving around LA with A/C, we averaged around 20 MPG with an average speed of 26MPH (that stop and go driving). Coming back through Interstate 5 doing 75 MPH and A/C all the way and about 15% city driving, we only averaged about 22 MPG. We had head and cross winds all the way back and had to get over the Grapevine (mountains). Tires are inflated to 38 PSI.
So far, driving the Edge, she has averaged about 18.5 MPG on her daily route. Her 2002 V6 Camry usually averaged 21 MPG. She loves the Edge.
