New Here and New 2011 Ford Edge Sport

If I lived where snow was an occasional - or melted by most afternoons - I would have gone FWD, but with snow and ice an almost constant for 5 months - AWD this time around. I have driven a FWD car for all but the worst days for the last 8 years and been fine. Time to stop pushing my luck though.

 

I currently have an '07 Sel Plus AWD (my 2011 Edge eta is 9/25) and it is an absolute bear in the snow. You made a good choice.

I have pushed my luck to the end with my little escort and winter driving... there was one morning last winter that I pretty much needed a drink by the time I got to work, but the exits were so much worse that there was no turning around and going home. Just had to pray that it was better by the time I left to go home. Luckily it was. I decided that day that I wasn't drive that car another winter here. Either move or get a new car. I can't wait for my limited AWD due to me anyday!

You definitely do try your luck in the winters by me (I live in Coastal NJ). I am somewhat rolling the dice, but since I'm going from a rear-wheel drive sports car to this truck ANYTHING is an improvement! Ha ha! Technically I shouldn't have lived through last winter...it was BRUTAL.

We had a good time laughing at the east coast. Eventually we did fess up and agree that you got a lot of snow in a very short time, but still laughed and laughed as we got very little snow in the same time frame.

Just traded in my '08 black edge limited and picked up my new '11 edge sport, Kona Blue, Nav, vision & entry package and the panoramic roof. Let me say this, I was questionable about the blue but when I saw it in person, WoW! I absolutely love it. Hoping to get the windows tinted this weekend. Will post pics as soon as its finished.
