Thanks for all your help cyberdman! Picked her up yesterday. Wish I had better pics but it started raining when I got home.

Thank you for that update. I talked to the salesman Tuesday night and he didn't see it come in yet. Not too happy with him.

Cyberdman is it too early for another update. I'm baffled as to where the car is....dealer doesn't know either. 2FMDK4JC6DBC96475. Thanks!

Up and at it early today cyberdman! Thanks for the update!!!! Hopefully the dealer gets it today or tomorrow (we're just a few miles from St. Louis).

Hey Cyberdman can I get an update? Hopefully it is close! 2FMDK4JC6DBC96475

Thank You! Come on train!

Hello, Can I get the status on this VIN? I am not having much luck with the dealer. 2FMDK4JC6DBC96475 Thanks!

Welcome, I'm the soon to be Edge owner (post below this one).

You bring up an interesting point. I bet there would be a lot of Fusion owners interested in some of the "new" parts. As long as they are quick swaps and easily available. Could create a new aftermarket market.

This is very good for Ford and their shareholders. I need to buy some stock!

I agree, i don't think a top tier fusion starting at 50k would do well in the states. However slap a Lincoln badge on it and make it its own model and you might get more sales. Although it doesn't scream Lincoln to me.

Interesting - I decided to order a 2013 Edge - but for a while was considering waiting until next June/July to see what the 2015's were going to be like. If the deal falls through on delivery I might still do that.

My dodge had this problem when I bought it- after 1 year it started to bubble under the paint. I had read about it on forums too and even some nightmare stories about how the dealer won't cover it - blah blah blah. I went to my dealer and he said he's seen it before and even explained how it was a bad batch of hoods with bad seams that weren't sealed properly. Anyway - they replaced it no problem and never had another problem. Sure hope Ford gets a clue and gets the issue resolved.

Most if not all new vehicles will probably have this feature because it's electronic ignition now. It's all computer controlled - beware of SKYNET.

Driver makes a big chunk of that time. Base specs like that are usually pretty conservative because of many factors that attribute to that time.

Just be sure if you do sell the car - for that much money do a Cashier's check. Meet at your bank even. Don't do it outside of that, just too risky. I don't know that I would even accept Cash for that....hate to have to get to the bank with that much.

I had a 2013 Escape rental earlier this year and it was far from plain. Leather, MFT, and 2.0 Ecoboost. It was very nice, what turned me on to order my Edge.

I like the front end look, like the new fusion with the jagish styling, but the backend from that picture looks like it's missing something.

On a 2013, yeah you'll take a hit...but you should be able to get a much better deal selling it than trading it. For me I've always traded my cars in because the difference between private selling and what I can get for trade in is usually only about $500. That's also the difference in sales tax I would pay if I don't trade in. I don't mind haggling with the dealer...I actually in a twisted way enjoy it.

The scene is quickly shifting to phase out keys. Many manufacturers have started switching to push button start and its only a matter of time until it becomes the standard.

My Avenger has that, it's a 2008, they call it Tip Start. Just a quick tap to the Start position will start the vehicle. I thought it was the coolest feature 5 years ago. I would get confused on my wife's car because it didn't have that and would just tap it to start the car and it wouldn't start. But yes with all of this technology Ford is putting in their vehicles, you would think Push Button start would at least be an option if not standard on all vehicles or even at least a folding key.

Hi All! Back in early September I ordered my 2013 Ford Edge SEL with appearance package - I just love the look of that package and couldn't pass it up. This will be my FIRST FORD ever and have been raised by a very ANTI Ford stepfather. However in April I had a Ford Escape rental for a week and loved it. So in looking for a new vehicle I fell in love even more with the Edge. I'm a little nervous, but I'm sure everything will be great. I've owned Dodge and GM for the past 16 years and will be coming from a 2008 Dodge Avenger R/T. I love the car, but it's time for a SUV for the family. I have a 9yr old and an 11 month old. Anyway - I'm very anxious and can't wait until I take delivery in the next few weeks.
