I just bought a new Edge (great car) for my wife and am ordering a new Taurus...to replace my own Government Motors car...next year...I hope...
I think when the day comes (and my car is currently paid off so I’m running it until it stops) I am targeting an Edge. So it is solid as advertised?
Are you getting the Eco Boost? That is a hot engine...
I looked at it and the manager asked if we wanted to take it for a drive. It had 14 miles on the odometer.
I drove it up the freeway about 5 miles. My wife drove it back. It was loaded. Still haven't learned how everything works.
I asked the wife if she like it. She did. She asked if we should by it. We needed it like another body orifice.
We went old-age crazy and bought it on the spot.
Great car. Has a nice rumble to the exhaust. Drives like a sport car. Looks great as well. Can't wait until spring comes and the roads clear so can drive it without it getting dings from the gravel.
I have a 2006 Fusion that we like very much. Despite being a old dude, I really like the specs on the 2011 Mustang 3.7 V6. With leather and bun warmers, it should be a respectable performer with good fuel milage.
I bought my Edge in 2007, first year for the model. What a great car so far. SEL with the big-ass moon roof, AWD, GPS nav and all the trinkets. It tracks like a freight train in bad weather.
The new 265 hp Duratec engines are very smooth and powerful, mo' bettah than the last generation of Duratecs. Coupled with a 6 speed tranny you get nice, smooth takeoffs and landings. Variable valve timing really helps.
Ford has been producing some very good cars. I hope they do well.
