I plan to buy the 2011 Edge, any idea when production start s ? I plan to tow it behind my motor home all four wheels down. Will the grill change enough that i won’t be able to use base plate from the 2010 Edge ?

The center console/IP should have been more like the new Taurus- maybe it’s the photo but this looks like “older” style/outdated look…..that vertical waterfall look…..first look made me think of some car from the 90s. rest of it looks good though atleast 19 (maybe 20) in wheels should be standard on all Edge- else it’s muscular look gives way to these teeny tiny legs…..

Elaine, The 2011 EDGE looks great. Appears you have reworked the vehicle and addressed the issues with the previous model. I lease a 2007 EDGE AWD. I am very pleased with the overall performance of the vehicle. It has been 100% reliable, Only shop visits are for routine maintenance (oil changes, tire rotation etc). I live in Minnesota. My EDGE AWD has handled the cold Minnesota winters with no problem (100% start reliability in winter regardless of ambient temperature). This vehicle has the best performing heating and air conditioning systems of any vehicle I have ever owned. My lease is up in June. Will definately go with another EDGE AWD. Dealer support has been great as well.
Keep up the good work!!!!

The 2011 Ford Edge Sport grill (not other models, just sport) is an eye sore. It reminds me of the 80s and 90s base vehicles from Ford that always had the cheap, grey grills. The upper models had the painted or chrome grills. Ford wants serious change for the Sport upgrade and that grey grill is a downgrade not an upgrade from the other models. Change it Ford or lose sales on Sport. The 20 hp difference, 22″ rims, and sparse ground effects between the chrome grill limited and the grey grill sport is not enough to make myself and others buy a sport otherwise. One does not need U of M to figure this no brainer out….

I have been driving a 1939 Ford every day for 16 years.
When is this thing going to wear out so I can buy a new Ford?
