Frisco1522 Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 Hello, my name is Don and I just bought a 2012 Edge Limited in Titanium White Metallic/Lt Stone Leather interior with the 2.0 Ecoboost engine. Naturally I only have about 300 miles on it, but am thoroughly impressed with how smooth and quiet the engine idles, how good the pickup is and the lack of engine noise. Very comfortable and positive feeling. I traded in a GMC (Government Motors Consortium) Terrain SLT2 on it. I bought the Terrain in early January and was decently satisfied with it. Never got close to the advertised mileage, little piddly things kept happening and the service folks seemed to be unconcerned with everything.So I traded it and a 2003 Ford Ranger Edge for the new one. Truck was handy at times, but didn't get driven enough to make it worthwhile paying for insurance, license, tax and gas. Besides, now my granddaughter won't be able to nag me about it. Also, I'm pretty good sized, 6'3" 255 lbs and found that on a fairly long day trip that I wasn't comfortable in it. I had traded a Buick Rendezvous for the Terrain and gave up some interior room. The Edge, while being of similar size is much more comfortable. Wife and I were really surprised at how comfortable the seats are now in a Ford. We had owned a couple during the '80s, one being a new Tempo which was a nice car but the seats were like park benches. I'm hoping to do well with MPG with this Edge. Also having a ball playing with all the electronic bells and whistles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
