ErlAlx Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 Yesterday after driving and decided to make purchase, very nice salesman noticed a severe crack in rear sun roof panel on the 2016 SEL Edge. So now I own it but don't have it. Service manager wanted to keep it, so afraid it may shatter more. He said hopefully they can get the part and have it replaced in the next 3-7 days. I did get a 2017 Fusion to use until then. So now I'm anxiously waiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enigma-2 Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 Hi ErlAlx. Bet your getting anxious eh? What color did you pick and what options come with it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErlAlx Posted July 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 This past Friday I took a 160 mile trip in the 17 Fusion. I believe it has the non EchoBoost 2.5 L engine. It seem to have good power and ran pretty good. My 16 Edge SEL has the 2 L EchoBoost engine. Will there be a noticeable difference in power, "get up and go" that I noticed in the Fusion.

ErlAlx Posted August 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2016 I finally got to bring my Edge home yesterday. Have not drove it too much yet. Just gotta get use to it and how everything works. It is White Platinum Met Tri-Coat. Equipt. group 201A. Tecnology Package, BSMS, Remote Start, Push Button Start, Navigation. Mkey. Heated Seats, RV Camera and a few other things. Probably will be asking for help/information sometime. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjm623 Posted August 7, 2016 Report Share Posted August 7, 2016 I finally got to bring my Edge home yesterday. Have not drove it too much yet. Just gotta get use to it and how everything works. It is White Platinum Met Tri-Coat. Equipt. group 201A. Tecnology Package, BSMS, Remote Start, Push Button Start, Navigation. Mkey. Heated Seats, RV Camera and a few other things. Probably will be asking for help/information sometime. Sounds like we got the exact same one color and all! Suggestion would be read the sync manual. Tons of commands I didn't realize. Including telling her to change temp, pulling up a weather radar/or five day forecast. Asking about sports scores....local gas prices, or traffic alerts. All of these are done through Sirius traffic link FYI. I've also enjoyed sport mode, it doesn't shift up for you and will let you redline so make sure you don't do that, but it feels much more peppy to me. Haven't done anything yet, besides adding the OEM bumper guard and weather mats they accidentally gave me for free lol. I'm planning on replacing license/puddle lamps with LEDs and possibly doing the HID headlight kit. Little known feature but if you click unlock and then click and hold for about 4/5 seconds. It'll roll your front windows down to vent car on hot day. Sadly it won't roll them back up like other ford models. The sync 3 is my favorite part, sat in car for 45 minutes going through all the options. And on dash (right side screen). If you select navigation regardless of if you've Inputted a route, it'll show road names and speed limits for the current road you are on. Have fun! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErlAlx Posted August 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2016 (edited) Thanks for all the information. Is there a way when adding destinations to the favorites list to add a name? It would be much easier to look up "Jon Doe" instead of some street and city. Maybe I'm just missing a detail somewhere.

Tjm623 Posted August 7, 2016 Report Share Posted August 7, 2016 I'll have to check, I haven't put any favorites in there yet. I'm curious what would happen if you used voice commands to save destination "John smith" and have johns address in your phone? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErlAlx Posted August 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 Tjm623 I figured it out. Have to go to the list of Favorites, click on one and then choose EDIT, then add a name. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
