Gas Milage

2012 Ford Edge Sport 4dr SUV (3.7L 6cyl 6A)

OK they told me 26 or 28 MPG on the hwy. Not even close, 21 is the best I can get. I went to the dealer and rode around with a technician with his computer plugged into the car wile riding. He could only get 22.1 on the hwy. He said that car would never get 26 mpg. If you don't need big gas milage the car is awesome it has more stuff than our Escalade but it does get better milage than the Escalade
Watch out Lexus, MB, BMW...

The new Ford Edge caught my eye and the Sport version really looked sets this vehicle apart from the others. No other midsize SUV looks as nice. 3.7 L engine is strong for a V6 but car is pretty heavy at 4,400 lbs (2 wheel drive version). Definitely can feel the build quality. Cabin is designed very well. Comfortable at 6'2". Wish driver seat went lower like passenger seat. MyFordSync is really cool. Weather maps, gas prices, navigation all very cool. There is a learning curve and those that don't LOVE technology may find it a bit frustrating.

2012 Ford Edge SEL 4dr SUV AWD (3.5L 6cyl 6A)

2012 AWD SEL v-6. Bought used in 2015 (47K). Now has114K, Solid vehicle, good ride. Currently on 2nd set of tires. Regular maintenance. Negative experience with SNYC system. Split replacement costs with Ford ($950 total cost). Replaced rotors and pads at 100K (done at home). Installed aftermarket trailer hitch. Short hauls with 1 ton loads. No problems. Replaced one front strut assembly (again done at home). Will probably replace other strut and rear shocks in next year. Vehicle has proven very reliable on extended trips. Fuel mileage better than expected (especially when using cruise control). Installed aftermarket cool air intake. Cannot verify (did not baseline) but vehicle does feel "peppier" and gas mileage did improve. Consider this Edge to be a solid investment with minor flaws only when one overlooks the SYNC (which does work but is a flawed unit). The Edge sans the SYNC rates as 5 stars, when factoring the SYNC 4 stars. Vehicle now has 144K. Had my most expensive repair ($4.3K) in the form of a rebuilt transmission. The primary cause (MHO) was due to towing in excess of OEM weight. Live and learn. Most recently the PTO (I call it a transaxle) needed to be replaced. Probable cause. towing and my failure to change the fluid in a timely manner. The AWD PTO is both difficult to service and is surrounded by multiple heat sources. Not a good design, but if you own an AWD Edge you need to change the fluid every 20-30K. I did not and it cost me $3K.

The Edge needs an Edge

I did my research. Everything about this vehicle met my needs; however, many, and I do mean many, little annoyances have not made this my best vehicle choice. I really want to believe I purchased a lemon in the group. Let’s start with a bad fuel pump at 60k miles. A bad brake sensor, and not a bad wiper switch...all before 100 k. Let’s also talk about a Symc system you have to go through several hidden steps to hook up your phone. Or where certain buttons are located that you accidentally hit while trying to use the counsel. Could you please not put buttons on the side of the gear shift? What engineering genius thought of this? Do I hate my vehicle? No. It has performed fairly well. Would I buy another? Not sure. I do know that with my bad back it is one of the easiest vehicles for me to maneuver in, and has plenty of storage. But the many bugs and issues I have had are a huge problem in that I feel like I am constantly complaining about stupid things going wrong with an SUV that is still fairly young in age.
