Peppy, fun to drive, and highly reliable

Have owned this car for 3 years and only have about 22,000 miles on it. Mostly around town but a couple of enjoyable 1,000 mile trips. We couldn't be happier and we both love the car better than all the other cars we have owned including 2 - 5 series BMW's (all purchased new). We live in Florida so the cooling thru the seats is excellent. For a 4,300 lb. car, the acceleration and handling is excellent (different engine and suspension from the non-sport versions) Going around a corner fast produces no lean. The gas mileage is as advertised. If I travel 65 or under, I actually get about 26 MPG. At 75 it goes down to 23 MPG. I purchased the 21" wheels and they look awesome. Initially, I was not happy to have the Pirelli Scorpion tires (265/40R21) but they handle OK and do not squeal going around corners fast. In the whole time I have owned this vehicle, I have only had 2 issues: the first is the battery went out at 34 months I always carry a jump starter so I was able to start the car and get it to the dealer - new battery and out the door in less than one hour. The second issue was that the auto latch rear lift would sometimes not latch but would hang up (drain the battery dry). They replaced the latch and out the door again. I did purchase the Ford extended premium service contract so I am covered for three more years. No surprises if major problems occur. Reading some of the poor reviews I have read, I wonder why the difference between those cars and mine which is more reliable and fun to drive than those BMW's I mentioned and a Mercedes sedan I owned. I have owned 15 cars in my lifetime and never had a disaster on any of them but this one is the BEST. We will be going on a 8,000 mile trip at the end of the summer. Looking forward to it.

Best 5-Passenger SUV Ever

Edmunds drop-down menu does not allow me to select the exact vehicle I bought, which is a Ford Edge SUV, Titanium, AWD, naturally aspirated V6. - I opted for the 201a package as I did not want the lane assist (i.e., a friendly nudge when one changes lanes without using the turn signal; who needs that?). This is the nicest vehicle I have ever owned. The engineers at Ford really thought of everything. Every detail is just perfect. Air conditioned front seats (three levels of a/c). Front and rear heated seats. Synch-3 interface could not be easier to use and the graphics are easy to see and beautiful. The Sony stereo will rattle the neighborhood (but I don't do that, I'm a normal person). The acceleration is fantastic. Placing you foot under the bumper lifts the automatic lift-gate, which is also height-adjustable. There are three memory settings for different drivers to select from for the power-driver's seat (with a button to choose 1,2, or 3). Also a power passenger seat. Ceramic perforated leather is extra comfy and breaths easy. Adjustable lumbar support and adjustable head rest. Ergonomic layout of the dash and interior is superior to any other vehicle I've ever been in. Height of vehicle makes it easy to navigate through traffic. You will notice the quality of the vehicle build is superior from the first time you drive the car. The 19-inch tires contribute to some slightly noticeable cabin noise, but it is not enough to complain about. The Vista-roof is awesome and easy to adjust to the position you desire. You can adjust the color of the LED displays via the Synch-3 interface (the door sill has an LED "Edge" display which can be adjusted to the color you want, etc.). Plenty of room in the cargo area and rear seats. I got rid of the factory carpet floor mats and bought some WeatherTech all-weather mats (which fit perfectly). The car came from the factory with a nice rubber floor mat for the cargo area. The car is beautiful and the ride is superior. One review I read dinged the Ford Edge and recommended some Korean-made Kia... bwaaahahaha. [non-permissible content removed]. I'd rather have my Ford Edge (and save $20,000+) than any luxury SUV. I did lots of research and compared the Edge to similar vehicles from Toyota, Honda, GMC / Chevy, Subaru and Jeep and selected the Edge and am extremely confident that I made the right choice. The engineers at Ford really did their homework. Great job.

The car's gas performance is less than advertised. The battery is inadequate. Otherwise it's a great little car

Based on my test drive, I knew this was the vehicle for me. A very quiet and smooth ride.

Almost perfect

The only drawback to giving it all 5 stars across the board are the tires. These Hankook 19" P245 55 R19 flat out suck (F-). I have the optional 3.5 V6 engine and while not as thrifty as the Ecoboost, I live in a very hilly area and need pulling power.
